LANY have dropped a new single.
The minimalist If This Is The Last Time traverses a sleek dream-pop soundscape of lo-fi guitar leads and hazy synths, as frontman Paul Kein sings tenderly about longing for his family members. Listen below.
Klein said:
“I started writing If This Is The Last Time towards the end of 2019. It was initially inspired by the inevitable truth that one day my parents aren’t gonna be here anymore... that picking up the phone and calling my mom is actually a luxury that I won’t always have.
“Moving into 2020 and being thrown into a global pandemic and being faced with a new reality, it became clear to me that finishing and perfecting this song was imperative... that maybe this was a song the world could lean on.”
If This Is The Last Time will feature on LANY’s upcoming third LP, ‘Mama’s Boy’, which is set to drop later this year, though a release date is yet to be confirmed. The trio's last album came in the form of 2018’s ‘Malibu Nights’.
