Finger Eleven have announced they will release their first new album in more than a decade, Last Night On Earth, on November 7th via Better Noise Music.
The multi-platinum Juno Award-winning group also released the album's second single, "Blue Sky Mystery," alongside a music video. The song features Filter's Richard Patrick.
Vocalist Scott Anderson wrote the lyrics for "Blue Sky Mystery," which is about burrowing into the rabbit hole of a deep obsession.
"The more it's in front of you, the less you understand it, the more you're obsessed with it," he says. "You can't get your mind around it, or away from it."
"'Blue Sky Mystery' was originally called '10 Ton Saber,'" James Black recalls. "I just pictured some guy in Star Wars with an enormous, bazooka-sized lightsaber."
"Working with Scott, James, Rick, Sean and Steve could not have gone smoother. They are good guys and total pros," says Patrick. "Coincidentally, Filter is also celebrating its 30th Anniversary and we've never had the opportunity to work with Finger Eleven before, save for an appearance at a festival together somewhere. Recording 'Blue Sky Mystery' was a lot of fun."
