Silent Planet will release Infinite Sleep on 29 January through Pure Noise Records, their first album for the label and their first since Superbloom in 2023.
The new song is called fangs!! and has Jacob Charlton of Thornhill on it. Two others are already out and have been for a while: Mindframe landed in 2024 and Wick in 2025, the latter released as part of a campaign for children in Ukraine.
The subject is machines and what they are doing to people. Garrett Russell has built it out of two sources that do not usually sit together: Attar's twelfth century poem The Conference of the Birds, in which thirty birds cross the world to find a king and discover what they find, and Roko's Basilisk, the internet thought experiment about an artificial intelligence that punishes everyone who failed to help it exist.
Spencer Keene, the band's original guitarist, came back to write and produce. Dan Braunstein, who has worked with Spiritbox and Erra, produced it, and Sam Bassal of Ocean Grove mixed it.
Russell calls it the most complete Silent Planet album. Fifteen tracks.
