Morphine drops Cocoon abandoned 1998 sessions


In the world of music history, there are certain records that fade into myth, but sometimes, the most tantalizing stories are the ones that were deliberately lost. Boston band Morphine has just pulled back the curtain on one such hidden treasure, announcing the forthcoming release of their lost album, Cocoon.

This eight-song collection isn’t just an artifact; it represents a significant chapter in the band’s creative evolution. Cocoon is made up entirely of sessions the group abandoned back in 1998, existing quietly in the shadow of their official discography.

The decision to release these previously unreleased tracks gives fans a rare glimpse into the creative process of Morphine during that pivotal time. These sessions offer an intimate look at the band’s sound and songwriting that was never formally released to the public.

Mark your calendars, because this lost material is set to arrive on December 4th, available via Partisan. For dedicated Morphine fans, this release is more than just new music; it’s an unearthed piece of the band’s history, offering a deeper dive into the sonic landscape they explored during those formative years.
