Eskimo Joe Ready to Release Album Number 4

This is our first look at the artwork for Inshalla, the much-anticipated fourth album from Eskimo Joe.

The first single “Foreign Land” is all over radio at the moment, coming in as the most added song for the week. And it’s little wonder why. Everything this Western Australian trio touches turns to gold, and this album’s likely to be no different.

But don’t expect more of the same. The group has embraced a fresh new sound for the curiously titled album. Guitarist Joel Quartermain explained the meaning behind the mystical moniker.

“In the very early stage of writing the album, our singer [Kav Temperley] spent five days in Egypt and he heard everyone saying this word ‘inshalla’, which literally translates to ‘god willing’ but can be interpreted a number of ways,” he said.

“For us, it is more about being resigned to fate and accepting what will be will be. It was a turning point for the band when we decided to ease off control and let fate take over. And, of course, it’s a beautiful word which is another reason why we chose it.”

Inshalla hits stores on May 29.
