Indoor Enthusiast, the third record from Tuesday The Sky, which is the instrumental-driven project from guitarist Jim Matheos, arrives this Friday, October 24th, 2025, via Metal Blade Records.

The new album features Dutch drummer Dennis Leeflang on “The Nearest Exit May Be Behind You,” “Bend Toward Light,” and “Set Fire To The Stars.”

Matheos, best known for his work with Progressive Metal band Fates Warning, alongside projects such as OSI and his collaboration with John Arch, Arch/Matheos, started to work on the project Tuesday The Sky in 2016.

The impetus came from a Fates Warning bonus track that Matheos felt didn’t fit the band. He kept writing in that vein, and the result was Tuesday the Sky. The initial offering was 2017’s Drift, a record that drew influence from the likes of Brian Eno, Sigur Ros, Boards Of Canada, and Explosions In The Sky.

The second Tuesday The Sky album was 2021’s The Blurred Horizon, a mixture of Ambient, Electronica, Post-Rock, and more. Meanwhile, Indoor Enthusiast is entirely instrumental, produced and mixed by Matheos, and mastered by Jacob Hansen.
