Fire and Pernod invite listeners on a reflective journey with their new track “New Era,” a standout from the forthcoming album Weird Lands dropping August 8, 2025. This reggae funk-infused piece slows down time with its deliberate tempo, lush synths, and melancholic vocals — perfectly evoking the feeling of cruising alone on an empty road late at night.
The balance of synth textures and haunting vocal melodies creates a dreamlike atmosphere where the passage of time feels suspended. Fire and Pernod masterfully blend hip-hop beats, cinematic strings, and electronic soundscapes throughout the album, but “New Era” stands apart with its soulful, introspective mood.
Vocal lines here aren’t just lyrics — they serve as a crucial instrument, adding emotional depth and complementing the complex arrangement. This track is a moment of calm within the Weird Lands universe, a space for listeners to explore their own thoughts and emotions in a slowed-down sonic landscape.
Weird Lands as a whole pushes creative boundaries, mixing dystopian angles with soul-stirring energy and hypnotic rhythms. With 18 tracks, it’s a richly textured album that invites you to journey beyond Earth and into otherworldly realms.
If you’re into artists who blend reggae funk, hip-hop, and electronic soul with cinematic flair, Fire and Pernod’s “New Era” offers a fresh, immersive experience worth sinking into.
🎧 Available August 8, 2025, on Spotify and Apple Music. Keep an ear out for the full Weird Lands album.
