Cut Worms is back with two new songs, "Every Once In A While" and "The Golden Sky", which will feature on his upcoming double LP Nobody Lives Here Anymore.

"Every Once In A While" and "The Golden Sky" arrive after July's lead singles "Sold My Soul" and "God Bless The Day".

Max Clarke, aka Cut Worms, says of "Every Once In A While", "We did a few takes and used probably the fourth or fifth one with no punch ins or anything. I like the immediacy of it. It came out pretty much exactly how I wanted it. Then later I had Caroline do some backing vocals for one of the parts she came up with and I think it’s really great."

He adds of "The Golden Sky", "I was trying to create a sort of atmospheric track with the overdubs on this one. It also has some lyrics that are important though I think. The thing about having to rob your fellow man/woman/person in order to be alright yourself - that’s the main part you’re supposed to get by listening to it."

Nobody Lives Here Anymore will also include Cut Worms' earlier releases "Unnatural Disaster", "Baby Come On", and "Castle In The Clouds".

Cut Worms' forthcoming double album will follow on from his 2018 debut LP Hollow Ground. Clarke recorded his sophomore LP between May and November last year in Memphis, Tennessee.

The musician says his new double album is about "throwaway consumer culture and how the postwar commercial wet dreams never came true, how nothing is made to last." He adds, "It’s about homesickness for childhood, for a place that never really existed."

"Every Once In A While" and "The Golden Sky" are both out now. Cut Worms' double album Nobody Lives Here Anymore will be released 9 October via Jagjaguwar, and is available to pre-order now.
