At long last “The Wreck of Hope” is ready for release. The seventh Beerfinger album arrives on June 3rd, 2026. Although the album was mostly completed last year, I took some extra time to try and refine things as much as I could. That resulted in adding extra songs which then needed polish all their own. However, the record is set to arrive.
Below is an embedded player that’ll take folks to Bandcamp where they can preview a few tracks then perhaps pre-order the album. That said, other outlets such as Amazon, Apple, and Spotify should have their own similar systems in place. As usual, the music will be available everywhere I can get it.
I’m really happy how “The Wreck of Hope” turned out. Loosely inspired by the video game Dredge, it’s a haunting series of songs about rage, depression, weakness, and the strange optimism folks can accrue harvesting sparks in the dark. The various tracks feature an assortment of inspirations such as sludge metal, stoner doom, goth rock, and alternative, while mingling some strange takes that keep things distinctly Beerfinger. It’s weird, headbanging, oddly thoughtful music, especially thanks to some lyrical choices I’m particularly proud of.
I hope you enjoy “The Wreck of Hope”. If you do happen to give it a listen and like what you hear, please be so kind as to leave a review somewhere. And if you don’t enjoy anything, thanks for taking the time to give it a chance. Either way, my best to you and yours. Stay weird, keep cool, and remember to the old French toast that says, “Milk. Eggs. Cinnamon and vanilla. Whisk together. Dip bread then fry.”
