Official press release:
Zones, the sixth studio full-length from San Francisco’s long-running quartet, Enablers, is confirmed for release on June 14th. The album is set for a vinyl release through a three-way label cooperation between Germany’s Exile On Mainstream, UK-based Lancashire & Somerset, and US-based Broken Clover Records. With the album’s details, artwork, and track listing, a video for the lead single, “Bill, In Consideration”, makes its debut through an exclusive premiere at PopMatters:
Established in San Francisco in 2002, Enablers’ subsequent five LPs and four EPs have signaled a transcendent approach to “spoken word” music. Delivering another performance of the band’s singular, immersive, jazz/post-rock approach, the new Zones album delivers another forty-minute spiral down the rabbit hole, with nine new visceral and poignant character-driven tales.

Pre-orders are now live via Exile On Mainstream in Germany, and via Broken Clover Records in the US Watch for full audio premieres from the album and more to be issued in the days ahead.
