Saintseneca have announced that their forthcoming record Pillar of Na will be out on ANTI- Records on Aug. 31. Along with the album announcement comes news of the band’s first headlining tour in three years, which will kick off at the end of August and run until the end of October. The album’s title channels the idea of memories, a theme that courses throughout the record. The name references the Biblical story of Lot whose wife looks back at the burning city of Sodom and turns into a pillar of salt (the chemical symbol for sodium is Na) for her disobedience to God. This looking back or remembering appears in the lead single from Pillar of Na, “Frostbiter,” which brings up an assortment of memories, including the death of a grandfather and a childhood friendship.
