Our Lady Peace Spiritual Machines 2 (New Vinyl) (Clear Vinyl)

NEW LP

New sealed copy. Clear vinyl.

Spiritual Machines 2 is the tenth studio album from Canadian alternative rock band Our Lady Peace, a sequel to their 2000 art rock concept album Spiritual Machines. The album was produced by Dave Sitek, and released through BMG's Shelter Music Group in the form of a non-fungible token (NFT) on October 29, 2021. All 500 NFTs were reported sold out in January 2022. A traditional release of the album happened on January 28 and a multi-media tour was scheduled to begin in June 2022.

The album, along with its thematic predecessor, is influenced by the 1999 Ray Kurzweil book The Age of Spiritual Machines. Spiritual Machines 2 was inspired by Kurzweil following up in the 2020s on his predictions made in the 1990s. Spoken excerpts voiced by Kurzweil feature in the album, as they did in the original Spiritual Machines album. It is the first Our Lady Peace album to involve the participation of founding member and original guitarist Mike Turner since Gravity in 2002, and the first studio release to feature Saul Fox on its cover since the original Spiritual Machines album. During the band's mid-2022 tour, Kurzweil and Turner were "projected" into the performance space in real time in the form of hologram-like technology.
