Spices is the third cut — following Heavy Covenant and Family Farm— to preview the renowned rock band's eighth studio album, 'Open Door Policy', which is due for release on February 19.
The track finds singer and guitarist Craig Finn's spoken word storytelling taking centre stage as guitar riffs bend around eachother and build to a crescendo of driving percussion and horns. Finn said:
“‘Spices’ began with the intro riff that guitarist Tad Kubler brought in, and it unfurled quickly when the band got together. It’s probably one of the heaviest songs on the record, but it achieves some levity with the horn section that arrives at the chorus. Like a number of others on the record, ‘Spices’ speaks of technology – the way texts, social media, DMs, etc. allow acquaintances to pop up into our lives and potentially disappear again just as quickly.”
