Madeline Kenney has announced her fourth album, A New Reality Mind, which will be out on July 28 via Carpark Records. Kenney recorded and produced the follow-up to 2020’s Sucker’s Lunch and the 2021 EP Summer Quarter alone in her basement. Check out a self-directed video for its first single, ‘Superficial Conversation’, below.
“‘Superficial Conversation’ is my way of looking back at the ways I shrunk myself or ignored my own needs in favor of the needs and desires of others,” Kenney explained in a press release. “While I wish I had acted differently, I want to be kind and forgiving to my past self and be able to grow and move forward with more power and love. I wanted the video to show a forced transformation, from the inside and out. Jess Bozzo’s choreography really captured what I wanted to evoke; a painful change that becomes a pretty joyous opening with room for desire and play.”
