After teaming for The Mystery of Heaven back in 2012, Jim Jarmusch and Jozef van Wissem have readied a new full-length follow-up effort.

Titled An Attempt to Draw Aside the Veil, the duo's latest arrives February 8 through Sacred Bones. Seven tracks in length, the primarily instrumental effort is said to explore the work of Russian occultist and philosopher Helena Blavatsky.

As Jarmusch puts it in a statement, "An Attempt to Draw Aside the Veil is another adventure with Jozef into the realm of vibrating strings and the dreamlike musical text."
