For the first time since their 1998 album EndSerenading, seminal Texas emo band Mineral have revealed new music. Shared via a lengthy interview with NPR, “Aurora” is a gorgeous eight-minute epic that appears on a 10-inch record accompanying a new limited edition retrospective book celebrating the band’s 25th anniversary, fittingly titled One Day When We Are Young: Mineral at 25.
Set for release on January 4th, the book and 10-inch will also include “Your Body Is the World,” another brand new song. Stream “Aurora” below.
One Day When We Are Young is available to pre-order now. In addition to the new track, Mineral have also shared world tour dates for 2019.
