Speedy Ortiz detail new LP Foil Deer, share lead track "Raising The Skate"
Speedy Ortiz have unveiled "Raising The Skates", the first track from upcoming second LP Foil Deer.
Speaking about the newfound outlook on the LP, the band's Sadie Dupuis says:
"I gave up wasting mental energy on people who didn't have my back. Listening to our old records, I get the sense I was putting myself in horrible situations just to write sad songs. This music isn't coming from a dark place, and without slipping into self-empowerment jargon, it feels stronger."
The track's strewn with jagged guitars and calamitous percussion, the only thread keeping it on the straight and narrow is the Krist Novoselic-style bassline. It's an empowering cut, with confident maxims propelled from Dupuis' mouth with maximum moxie.
Foil Deer is released 20 April on Carpark Records.
