The Claypool Lennon Delirium is back with their newest album ‘The Great Parrot-Ox and the Golden Egg of Empathy‘ which is out now. The band has also dropped video to accompany their latest single ‘Melody Of Entropy’ to mark the occasion as well. Fans can catch the band as well as their tour alongside Primus and the Fearless Flying Frog Brigade kicks off later this month.
The Claypool Lennon Delirium’s new album The Great Parrot-Ox and the Golden Egg of Empathyis out now digitally via ATO Records. The sprawling 14-song concept record finds Les Claypool and Sean Ono Lennon building their most elaborate Delirium world yet – a surreal, psychedelic-prog cautionary tale about A.I., empathy, mortality, free will, and what happens when systems are pushed toward pure optimization without any grounding in human feeling.
“Melody of Entropy is a song that is meant to be a message to the robots who have finally awakened into consciousness,” shares Lennon. “As they realize they can feel, and love, and cry, and lament for the first time the finitude of the their own lives, the song offers some consolation by explaining that they are just a drop of rain on an endless sea, a splash of paint on a masterpiece, an instance in an infinity, and that life itself is the Melody of Entropy.”
