Krill Announces Secret Language Album for November 13

Krill has set November 13 for Secret Language, a new album now listed for preorder by its label. The announcement follows the band’s July comeback single “Commemorative Plaque,” giving listeners a clearer timetable for its return rather than only a standalone release.

The label’s listing includes “Dominate,” and its site is displaying a video for that song. The record is being presented as the band’s first album in roughly a decade after its mid-2010s split. A release date and preorder are confirmed; the album itself is still forthcoming, so any verdict on its sound or reception would be premature.

Why the return matters

Krill built an audience in independent rock through tightly wound guitar music and an unusually conversational approach to songwriting. A new album gives the reunion a different weight from a one-off show or reissue: it offers a fresh set of songs against which the group’s intervening years can be heard. “Commemorative Plaque” had already established that the members were recording again; Secret Language turns that activity into a scheduled full-length project.

For fans, the next useful distinction is between what has been announced and what remains to be heard. The November date is a planned release, while the available singles offer only a partial view of the record. The newly posted “Dominate” video adds another point of entry ahead of the album, without settling how the complete tracklist will fit together.

The group’s return also lands in a music landscape where reunited bands often balance familiar material with new work. Secret Language will provide the first substantial test of where Krill wants to take its music now. Readers can expect further release details closer to November 13.
