Seattle’s Museum Of Light have announced details for their sophomore album Diviner, set for release on March 14, 2025 via Spartan Records.

“Blunt Force Drama,” is the lead single from the 11-track LP produced by Scott Evans (Sumac, Thrice, Kowloon Walled City).

Guitarist Ted Alvarez says:

“Blunt Force Drama” is a bit representative of the whole recording experience in that the basic structure existed for a while, but it only really took shape at Ocean Sound. You can spend a lot of time rehearsing and think, “yeah, this could be a cool song,” but it’s largely in your mind until you hear all the unknowns — new bassist, new voices, crazy location — fall into place. In my memory, this one came early and quick. I can recall Scott (Evans) blasting an early mix while staring out across a damn fjord and thinking, ‘alright, we might be on to something.’ Not all the songs came together that easily, but I’m glad this one did because it set a bit of a road map for the giant sounds and moods we were going for.
