“Diluvian” is the first single off of our debut LP, Specter. Like much of the record, it’s apocalyptic. The dueling lead vocals of Cordoba lead singers Brianna Tong and Eric Novak lament the inability of our structures and movements to deal with the impending catastrophes of the 21st century. The lyrics paint pictures of floods and confrontation. The band rides the wave of the song as the primary groove develops, disappears, and reemerges. This song features Zach Bain-Selbo on keys and Eric Novak on sax. Zach also mixed the song.
This album came from our fear that we are moving further away from the society we need. We have the wealth to provide safety, security, and prosperity to everyone but not the will. Our leaders create cities, jobs, and police forces to isolate us. We pray this album will allow you to appreciate the destiny we share and imagine a new, better world.
We'd like to thank our moms, Seth Engel, Nate Amos, Cold City Horns, Mark Fisher, Pankaj Mishra, and freedom fighters around the globe trying to tear down this system and build the world we need.
