It gets weird.

Frost* is back with all the proggy goodness you could ever want with their new double album Life In The Wires, due out October 18. Frost* is now streaming the massive new single "Moral & Consequence", whose runtime gets as strange as it is catchy.

"Every prog band worth their salt really should do a double album, shouldn't they?" asks Frost* frontman Jem Godfrey. "We've always kind of had this idea of wanting to do one. So I sat down last summer and thought, well, I'm just gonna have to get my head down and go for it."

Godfrey continued: "It's actually a continuation from Day And Age, the first track on the new album starts with the end of the last track from that album 'Repeat to Fade,' where the static comes up and a voice says 'Can you hear me?'

"I remember putting that in when we did Day And Age as a possible little hook for the future; a character somewhere out there in Day And Age land trying to be heard. What does he want to say? Can anybody hear him? Day And Age kind of sets up the world that this character lives in and Life In The Wires tells his story."

The story revolves around the main character Naio, an aimless kid heading for a meaningless future in an A.I. run world. He hears an old DJ talking on the ancient AM radio his mother once gave him and decides to trace the source of the signal and find "Livewire" to see if there's a better future out there. However, the All Seeing Eye is less than impressed at this bid for independent thought and fights back. Soon Naio finds himself pursued across the country by an outraged mob as he tries to locate the home of Livewire and his freedom.

Pre-orders are available here.
