Job For A Cowboy has debuted the video below for their song “Beyond The Chemical Doorway“, which is from the band’s upcoming long-awaited new album Moon Healer. Metal Blade has the album slated for a February 23rd release date.
Jonny Davy, the band’s vocalist, offered the following on the track:
“On ‘Moon Healer‘, we unravel the dismal narrative of a close friend consumed by an unwavering pursuit of enlightenment. They achieve this through a compulsive embrace of hallucinogenic drugs. This storyline emerges from the foundation set in our earlier album, ‘Sun Eater‘, delving deeper into the intricacies brewing within our friend’s psyche.
When under the influence of these drugs, this individual claimed to encounter entities and find themselves in indescribable worlds that defy rational comprehension. Many who undergo such experiences draw intriguing parallels between diverse facets of Gnostic philosophy, biblical depictions of angels, and the stages of Bardo Thodol delineated in the Tibetan Book Of The Dead.
In the album’s opener, ‘Beyond The Chemical Doorway,’ our friend vividly voices his hallucinations, recounting the experience of breaching forbidden, gnostic-like realms, with each account culminating in the utter unraveling of his being.”
