Juanita Stein has announced her fourth solo LP, The Weightless Hour, which will be released on November 29 via Agricultural Audio. Today, the Howling Bells frontwoman has shared a new song, ‘Mother Natures Scorn’, alongside a video directed by Orlando Cubitt. Check it out and find the album cover and tracklist below.
“As the title suggests, ‘Mother Natures Scorn’ is a song about our scorching of the Earth,” Stein explained in a statement. “It’s about recognising that we are in a moment approaching irreversibility. Even so, it feels as if the closer we ride into the storm, the more familiar we become with apathy, which is terribly frightening. I’m acknowledging the limitlessness of Mother Nature. It’s not self-righteous, I am not campaigning, I am merely recognising our intense vulnerability in this moment.”
The follow-up to 2020’s Snapshot sees Stein reuniting with producer Ben Hillier. “I think making records is a really powerful way of letting go of experiences,” Stein said. “I’m allowing myself to kiss things goodbye.”
