Eros Zeta and the Perfumed Guitars is the 27th album from alternative rock band, the Church. The album was released on March 26, 2024. It has been described in AllMusic as a companion album to 2023's The Hypnogogue and expands on that album's science fiction concept.[1] The album has the same guitar driven jangle/goth rock sound as its predecessor. Several songs on the latter album appeared on later deluxe digital editions of The Hypnogogue.[2] Before its official release, it was sold at Church concerts during their Fall 2023 North American tour.[3]
