18 Nov, 2025
Summary
- New album Doppelgänger releases January 16.
- Single 'Button' reflects on office job identity shift.
- Album features songs from the band's entire career.
The slowcore trio Peaer, formed in 2014, has announced "Doppelgänger," their first album in almost seven years, set for release on January 16. This marks their fourth full-length record and is preceded by the single "Button."
Bandleader Peter Katz penned "Button" following his transition to a full-time office job in 2023. He described the song as an exploration of small life moments and their profound impact, questioning aspirations and the reality of achieved goals. It also touches upon the humility found in collective effort.
"Doppelgänger" succeeds their 2019 album, "A Healthy Earth." Despite pandemic-related tour cancellations in 2020, Peaer continued creating music. The new album encompasses material spanning their career, with some ideas originating as early as 2015, and includes previously released track "Just Because."
