As they wrap their North America run supporting PVRIS, Pale Waves has released another taste of their forthcoming record with “Glasgow.” Preceded by “Perfume,” the new track is set to appear on the band’s fourth album, Smitten. The 12-track LP is set to arrive on September 20 via Dirty Hit.
Vocalist Heather Baron-Gracie shares of the new offering, ‘Glasgow’ is my favorite from Smitten. It’s about leaving someone because you know it’s no good for either of you anymore. It somehow breaks my heart but also makes me feel so euphoric at the same time.” Check out the self-directed music video for the raw breakup track below.
Of the forthcoming album, Baron-Gracie shares, “I found myself writing about not just a certain time period, but my whole life, from years ago. When I fall in love, I fall deep, and it’s interesting to me that you can feel so fascinated and smitten with someone and then they can become a total stranger. So, I feel like Smitten really summarized perfectly what I felt for others at a certain point.”
