Melkbelly released their new lead single, “LCR” accompanied by an animated music video. The single is featured in their new album, Pith, coming out April 3rd on WaxNine/ Carpark Records and also announced a North American Tour.
Miranda Winters, the vocalist and guitarist of the ba nd, spoke out about how Pith came to be: “We lost an incredible friend suddenly and nostalgia always acts as a helpful tool for me in navigating difficult times. The band would take out and rearrange songs so that they felt an in depth personal relationship with the album. Revisiting emotionally challenging moments or significant social interactions helps shed light on confusing feelings for me. Lyrically, grief gave way to considering life,” she said.
The lead single, “LCR” casts the mood and rhythm for the album. “It’s about how having conversations with the dead can scoot you along in life, even when you’re really only hearing one side of the conversation or making up the other half,” Miranda said.
