AVATAR have released a new holiday track called “Construction Of Souls“, which the band say “will be to Christmas songs what Die Hard is to Christmas movies.“
AVATAR comments: “This song will be to Christmas songs what Die Hard is to Christmas movies. It wasn’t intended to be that, but ultimately, it makes a lot of sense. It’s about us — meaning the robots taking over the great human project of our ancestors, building our way out of the planet on sandy soils, saturated with the withering bones of our ancestors.”
The track is to be released together with a children’s book portraying the ‘not-very child-friendly everyday life’ in Santa’s workshop in the parallel universe of Avaya.
AVATAR are set to commence their “Going Hunting” UK/European tour in Nottingham, England on January 8.
