Girlpool have announced a new album.
The follow-up to 2019's 'What Chaos Is Imaginary' is called 'Forgiveness' and will arrive on April 29 via Anti-. It will include the previously shared track Faultine and new single Lie Love Lullaby, which finds the band experimenting more with electronic elements while still delivering the captivating harmonies for which they're known.
One half of the Los Angeles duo, Avery Tucker said:
“‘Lie Love Lullaby’ is a song about a time where I felt that my innocence affected my ability to choose a person who was good for me. In the past, it's been painful to choose somebody that didn’t believe in me, and I think the most painful part was that I allowed myself to pick a person that didn’t recognize my entirety. I wrote this song wondering, did I recognize it myself? If I had the wherewithal to tolerate their minimizing perspective?”
Discussing the album, he continued: “A lot of my songs on this record are about relationship dynamics where I experienced frustration and pain, and struggling to hold a lot of complexity in my emotions. Writing Forgiveness helped me fit all those pieces into an acceptance: that my fate pushes me exactly where I need to go.”
The other half, Harmony Tividad added: “A lot of life feels like unavoidable experiences to me,” she adds. “To me, Forgiveness is about accepting that concept. It’s about forgiving reality for having to be exactly what it is all the time.”
