Cigarettes After Sex have dropped a third early single from their upcoming album.
Offering androgynous vocals over a metronomic drum beat, the haunting but light, dreamy track will appear on 'X's', due out through Partisan on July 12. The Texas band previously teased the record with Dark Vacay and Tejano Blue. Bandleader Greg Gonzalez commented:
"A "blue movie" is a term for a porn movie and so "baby blue movie" is a reference to softcore porn. I heard the title years ago and it felt really striking to me. The story of the song is intentionally meant to be more cryptic storytelling wise than the lyrics I usually write. I like the idea of leaving the listener to decide what this one could be about…"
The trio will support the follow-up to 2019's 'Cry' with a world tour, which will follow an appearance at Bonnaroo in Manchester, Tennessee later in June, and includes their biggest headline UK shows to date at London's O2 Arena in November.
The North American leg will take place in September and October, before dates in Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Manila, Jakarta, Bangkok, Cape Town, Pretoria, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Auckland scheduled for early 2025. Tickets are on sale now.
