Chicago outfit Dehd have announced their fifth LP, Poetry. The follow-up to 2022’s Blue Skies comes out May 10 via Fat Possum. Lead single ‘Mood Ring’ arrives today along with an accompanying video, which you can check out below.
Dehd enlisted Ziyad Asrar of Whitney to co-produce the album alongside the band’s own Jason Balla at Palisade Studio, marking the first time the group has worked with anyone outside of the band during the recording process. According to a press release, a moment of inspiration came from Charles Bukowski’s poem ‘The Laughing Heart’, which “gave birth to Dehd’s fifth album and a new direction—to live life like Poetry.”
