Sweet Billy Pilgrim's New Album Title Inspired By JFK Assassination

. (Prog) Sweet Billy Pilgrim will release fourth album Motorcade Amnesiace on May 25 via Kscope, they've confirmed. And the title was inspired by the assassination of US president John F Kennedy in 1963.

Frontman Tim Elsenburg says: "When it came to making the record, all the songs started to form around the struggle against the cynical heart. I wanted to find a symbolic moment in our history, where it felt a little like innocence was lost and something ugly and hopeless started to creep in.

"I thought of JFK - as we followed that motorcade through the streets of Dallas, in post gunshot-shock, maybe we forgot how to hope for something better, just a little." Read more here.
