Impermanence (Peter Silberman album)
Impermanence is the debut studio album by Peter Silberman, the frontman of the Brooklyn-based indie rock band The Antlers. The album was released on 24 February 2017, through Anti- and Transgressive Records, following the release of Silberman's 2016 extended play Transcendless Summer.[1] Work on the album started after Silberman began suffering from tinnitus, hyperacusis, and cochlear hydrops.[2] These hearing impairments began prior to the release of The Antlers' 2014 album Familiars.[3] As the album was written while Silberman regained his hearing, the instrumentation is quiet and muffled akin to the style of ambient music.[4][5][6]
