RELEASE DATE: JUNE 2011

Four years since the release of the band’s 2007 debut full length album, The Form and Fate of Lakes, and the 2007 EP Recirc (a collection of re-mastered home recordings from 1999), Form and Fate has assembled ten impassioned compositions in Sol Invictus, an album that examines themes of isolation and creative destruction. Having garnered favorable comparisons to giants of the genre like Mogwai and Explosions in the Sky, Form and Fate continues to develop the band's personal vision of instrumental rock on its latest release.

Sol Invictus contains 50 minutes of intense instrumental music that is available in mp3 format or on CD in an eye catching digipak created by artist and musician Daniel McKenzie (Rum Diary, Shuteye Unison). Form and Fate chose Adam Myatt (Exodus, Port O'Brien, Giant Squid), principal engineer at Oakland's Sharkbite Studios, to help capture and create the many textures of Sol Invictus. The album was mixed by the esteemed Billy Anderson (Melvins, Neurosis, Red House Painters), no stranger to working with loud and dynamic bands. Final touches were provided by Justin Weis at Trakworx (Papa Roach, Gorilla Sleepy Time Museum, Matt Nathanson) who mastered the album.
