Sad13, the project of Speedy Ortiz's Sadie Dupuis, has announced her second album Haunted Painting, alongside unveiling the lead cut "Ghost (of a Good Time)".

"Ghost (of a Good Time)" is the first new Sad13 song since May's Adult Swim single "WTD?", which will also appear on Haunted Painting.

The new single is, in Dupuis' own words, a "party song about not going out", and arrives with a video directed by Elle Schneider.

Haunted Painting will be Dupuis' first Sad13 album in four years, after 2016's debut LP Slugger.

Dupuis says of her second Sad13 album, "I worked on Haunted Painting throughout 2019, writing, arranging and recording from home, then finishing the songs in studios around the country in between Speedy's fly-in dates. It's maximalist, and more true to me and my tastes than any record I've done."

Tracklist:

  1. Into the Catacombs
  2. WTD?
  3. Hysterical
  4. Ghost (of a Good Time)
  5. Oops…!
  6. Good Grief
  7. Ruby Wand
  8. With Baby
  9. The Crow
  10. Take Care
  11. Market Hotel
"Ghost (of a Good Time)" is out now. Sad13's Haunted Painting album arrives 25 September via Wax Nine, and is available to pre-order now.
