PACKS, the project led by songwriter Madeline Link, have announced their sophomore LP. Crispy Crunchy Nothing is set for release on March 31 via Fire Talk, and it’s led by the single ‘4th of July’. Check it out and find the album’s cover artwork and tracklist below.
“Sometimes it feels like all I have are questions,” Link said in a statement. “What can I do if I don’t understand something? Write a song about it! The 4th of July is a celebration that sums up a lot of questions I have about how we like to live today in this glorious year of 2023.”
“For the video I was excited to work with Sam and Alex from Breathe because they were so gung ho about shooting on film!” she added. “I knew I wanted to make a bunch of creepy paper mache masks and include some occultish vibery. I drove myself nuts making the masks, but we had a fun day out in the golden horseshoe, dressing up like funky creeps! My Own Private Idaho vibes!”
PACKS’ debut album, Take the Cake, arrived in 2021. Check out our Artist Spotlight interview with PACKS.
