White Lies have announced their next album: As I Try Not To Fall Apart is out February 18, 2022. The band recorded the follow-up to 2019’s Five at Sleeper and Assault & Battery studios in West London with long-time collaborator Ed Buller. Check out a video for the title track, directed by James Arden aka The Trash Factory, below.
“We wrote this song quickly, late one night, and often the songs which come quickest are written from the gut and the heart, not with the head,” the band explained in a statement about the new song. “We wanted the melody to feel like a hymn, to give the confessional lyrics weight despite being wrapped up as a pop song. It’s about accepting vulnerability as a man, and knowing it’s ok to be broken. There’s never been a more pressing time to spread the message that it’s ok to not be ok.”
