The digital release date is August 20th, the vinyl version will follow on October 1st. In addition to the album announcement, Lotus released the catchy melodic duett “Romantic Disaster” with the charismatic vocalist Chrissy Constanza from Against The Current. “Me and Feldy [producer John Feldmann] were almost finished with the album and we had this one song that we felt was special but something was missing”, Lotus recalls.  Upon the advice of longtime collaborator Lil Aaron they decided to bring Costanza into the studio. “We just work great together,” notes Lotus on their instant chemistry in the studio. “I didn’t realize the song could sound as wild as it does now until I heard Chrissy’s voice on it.” “I’ve always loved the idea of this disastrous, chaotic kind of romance – like what you see in movies or read about in books where the two are objectively terrible for one another but the infatuation overpowers reason,” explains [Read More]

The Devil Wears Prada share “Forlorn” video

May 25, 2021

The Devil Wears Prada have released the much-anticipated “ZII” EP via Solid State Records a few days ago. It’s a discordant, dissonant exercise in excellence. Get the “ZII” EP here. The band has now shared the video for “Forlorn”. Hopelessness is a primary theme to ‘ZII’ and ‘Forlorn’ really drives that home”, says Hranica. “While fictitious zombie songs aren’t intended to particularly tug at one’s heart string,’Forlorn’ goes all in at the sense of loss within the zombie apocalypse”. The original “Zombie” EP dropped all the way back in August 2010 and remains an intense fan favorite. While not a chronological release in the TDWP catalog, “ZII” is the next chapter.

May 19, 2021

Press to MECO have dropped a brand new video for their single “Gold”, a track laden with emphatic guitar riffs that show the bands technical musicianship. The single, taken from the bands third studio album Transmute, is a song that battles the immensity of modern life and our inabilities to switch off and take care of ourselves. The scuzzy track screams for attention and beats down your ears; a heavy stand out on the upcoming album due August 20th. Talking about the track, Drummer/Lyricist Lewis Williams comments: “’Gold’ talks about feeling overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information and input we receive in modern life and the idea that it might be devolving us in some ways. The battle between wanting to switch off from things to help your mental health but also not wanting to be ignorant to what’s going on in the world and not wanting to feel like you aren’t contributing in any positive way. Gold is also about the feeling of being paralysed and not wanting to create or say anything meaningful when there’s already a million ideas, [Read More]
