Cave In will unveil their new studio album Heavy Pendulum this May.

Announced today, the 14-track album will be released on May 20 via Relapse Records. This is the band’s first full studio album since 2011’s White Silence. The first single from the album titled “New Reality” comes with a Michael Gilday-directed music video, which can be seen below. This is the band’s first music video since 2004’s “Dark Driving.”

Vocalist Stephen Brodsky said this about the announcement:

“Cave In’s been around for over 25 years now, and the time has come for an album that scales all of our creative peaks. Talk about a wild and weird ride! And here we are with Heavy Pendulum - it certainly feels like a remarkable event, given the erratic trajectory of our band. 'New Reality' was always the lead-off track - that was pretty obvious during the writing process. New line-up, new label, new album... a new reality indeed, and it all adds up to a new lease on life for Cave In.”
