Palehound's New Album 'You Sing Like You’re Joking' Drops Soon!

Hey there, music lovers! Get ready to add some fresh indie vibes to your playlists because Palehound is back with their exciting new album, You Sing Like You’re Joking, set to release on February 5! That’s right, it’s been almost four years since their last album, and we can’t wait to hear what El Kempner has in store for us this time around.

This upcoming album has been co-produced by the talented Katie Von Schleicher and Julian Fader from Ava Luna, making it a collaborative gem. Plus, fans will be thrilled to know that Nick Hakim is lending his magic to some tracks as well! The anticipation is building, and the first single off the album, Natural Disasters, has already dropped, accompanied by a captivating music video directed by Rachel Brown from Water From Your Eyes.

In the video, we get to dive into a world filled with gas masks, abandoned houses, and the warmth of friendship. Rachel Brown shared her thoughts on the project, emphasizing how important it is to cherish memories of joy and love, even when those people aren’t in our lives anymore. That’s such a beautiful sentiment! The imagery of societal doom paired with the sweetness of friendship makes it a visual treat that resonates deeply.

Interestingly, the video shoot was planned ahead of time and coincided with a nor’easter warning! But the weather turned out just fine, allowing the crew to capture the essence of the song without any hiccups. Talk about a little serendipity!

Palehound's You Sing Like You’re Joking will be their fifth full-length LP, following Eye on the Bat, which came out earlier this year. We’re super excited to see what tracks make the final cut. Here’s the tracklist to get you even more hyped:

• 01 Incisions
• 02 Hourglass
• 03 The Midwest
• 04 Patio
• 05 Natural Disasters
