How to Dress Well Announces New Album ‘I Am Toward You’, Releases New Songs

Los Angeles-based musician Tom Krell has announced his first How to Dress Well album in six years. Following up The Anteroom, the new LP, I Am Toward You, is slated to arrive on May 10 via Sargent House. To accompany the announcement, he’s unveiled the new songs ‘New Confusion’ and ‘No Light’, which feature contributions from CFCF, Trayer Tryon, and Anarthia DLT. Take a listen below, and keep scrolling for the album cover and tracklist.

Opening up about ‘New Confusion’, Krell said: “It’s about how to relate to the past knowing the hard limits on human memory and the challenges of metabolizing intergenerational-anthropogenetic trauma. ‘At best regret, at worst forgetfulness,’ I sing in the chorus – a tortured concept of memory, no doubt. But I also sing that there is a path to freedom from this bind.”

Of ‘No Light’, he added: “‘No Light’ is a song about contemporary LA, a place simply teeming with unspeakable suffering. It is, like LA, paradoxically and fundamentally also a bop. It’s a song I wrote after an interaction I had during the pandemic, something like a scene from Mulholland Drive, a young woman crawling across the ground in the alley behind my house in a white dress screaming about a ‘pig mask.’”

Chris Votek, Joel Ford, Josh Clancy, Brian Allen Simon (Anenon), and Aaron Charles Read also collaborated with Krell on the new LP. The title I Am Toward You came about as a result of Krell’s wife mishearing a lyric from Miley Cyrus’ ‘I Adore You’. “[She said,] ‘wow, that’s a powerful lyric,’ I asked which lyric, and she responded that she heard the chorus as having said: ‘I Am Toward You,'” he explained. “Because I had expressed to her that I thought the song was powerful, she generously attuned her mind to hear something powerful, something profound.”

mui zyu Announces New Album, Unveils New Song ‘the mould’

0

mui zyu – the project of London-based experimental pop artist Eva Liu – has announced her sophomore LP, nothing or something to die for. The follow-up to last year’s Rotten Bun for an Eggless Century is due on May 24 via Father/Daughter Records. It includes the previously shared single ‘everything to die for’, as well as a new track, ‘the mould’, which comes with a video directed by Liu’s Dama Scout bandmate Danny Grant. Check it out below and find the album cover and tracklist below.

“‘the mould’ is a frosted glacial sweetie about the many meanings of mould. mould is very cool, and the right kind can give you super powers,” Liu explained in a statement. “unfortunately though, it’s less than ideal to be squeezed in to a mould that doesn’t fit snuggly. so i’m at the bottom of the rotten jelly bowl trying to work out what mould is the good kind, and what is the bad kind, and maybe realising none of it really matters at all, as long as i can get out of this steep, slippery bowl. this also marks a new approach for my writing indicative of the whole record in a kind of anti-overture-y way.”

Of the video, she added: “‘the mould’ is a frosted glacial sweetie about the many meanings of mould. mould is very cool, and the right kind can give you super powers. unfortunately though, it’s less than ideal to be squeezed in to a mould that doesn’t fit snuggly. so i’m at the bottom of the rotten jelly bowl trying to work out what mould is the good kind, and what is the bad kind, and maybe realising none of it really matters at all, as long as i can get out of this steep, slippery bowl. this also marks a new approach for my writing indicative of the whole record in a kind of anti-overture-y way.”

Bully Releases New Song ‘Atom Bomb’

0

Bully has released a new song, a piano ballad called ‘Atom Bomb’. It marks Alicia Bognanno’s first new music since last year’s Lucky for You. The accompanying live video was directed by Bree Marie Fish and shot at MMK studios in Nashville, TN. Check it out below.

“The song was originally recorded with a drum machine and electric guitar; it was also quite a bit faster,” Bognanno explained in a statement. “When I played the demo for JT Daly (producer), he had the idea of moving it to the piano. I remember saying out loud, ‘Can you believe I’m trusting anybody like this?’ We both started laughing because starting off as someone who used to record, mix, and produce their own records to avoid the vulnerability that comes with working out creative ideas in the company of others, it was a huge step for me. That was our first real bonding moment, acknowledging that we were mutually up for trying new things and seeing each other’s ideas through before one of us shut it down.”

Cage the Elephant Announce New Album ‘Neon Pill’, Share Video for New Single ‘Out Loud’

Cage the Elephant have announced their sixth studio album, Neon Pill. The follow-up to 2019’s Social Cues is set to arrive on May 17 via Columbia. Today’s announcement comes with the release of the new single ‘Out Loud’, which follows the previously shared title track. Check it out below.

Produced by John Hill, the new album came together during sessions at Sonic Ranch in El Paso, Electric Lady in New York, Sound Emporium in Nashville, Echo Mountain in North Carolina, and Hill’s studio in Los Angeles. “To me, Neon Pill is the first record where we were consistently uninfluenced, and I mean that in a positive way,” singer Matthew Shultz said in a press release. “Everything is undoubtedly expressed through having settled into finding our own voice. We’ve always drawn inspiration from artists we love, and at times we’ve even emulated some of them to a certain degree. With this album, having gone through so much, life had almost forced us into becoming more and more comfortable with ourselves. We weren’t reaching for much outside of the pure experience of self expression, and simultaneously not necessarily settling either. We just found a uniqueness in simply existing.”

“‘Out Loud’ is very connected to my father,” Shultz added. “My dad’s the reason we discovered music in the first place. When he died, ‘Out Loud’ just poured out of me. My efforts towards the song were deeply rooted in paying honor to him, and I knew it meant a lot to Brad too. That, also in connection with the difficulties that I was dealing with at that time. It was almost a subconscious apology of sorts before I was fully capable of grasping the gravity of it all. Subconsciously working through it while channeling all of the adversity my family faced growing up coming full circle into my adult life in this one song.”

Earlier this week, Schultz revealed that he endured a “mental health crisis” leading up to his arrest last year for possession of two loaded guns. “It’s a miracle that I’m here today,” he wrote in a statement posted to Instagram on Wednesday. “I was arrested last year, and it undoubtedly saved my life. After my arrest, I went to the hospital for two months followed by months of outpatient treatment. I can finally explain what happened.”

“Over the last three years, I was unknowingly fighting my way through an utter mental health crisis,” Schultz continued. “In a short time, I had slipped into psychosis due to an iatrogenic response to a medication I was prescribed. It took the love and support of my brothers in the band, my community, and, most of all, my wife Eva to get me through it.”

Dana Gavanski Releases New Song ‘Ears Were Growing’

0

Dana Gavanski has put out a new song, ‘Ears Were Growing’, alongside an accompanying video. It’s taken from her upcoming album LATE SLAP, which is out April 5 and features the advance tracks ‘Let Them Row’ and ‘How to Feel Uncomfortable’. Check it out below.

“‘Ears Were Growing’ is an escapists dream that spirals back to the reality of still being stuck on the same old sofa with the same old thoughts,” Gavanski explained in a statement. “Thoughts that, though depressive and negative, have taken on a twisted but comforting companionship, a kind of Stockholm syndrome. Its what happens when I try to make a Talking Heads-esque track.”

1883 Season 2: Latest news, Rumours & Release Date

0

The immense fame of Yellowstone convinced the creator Taylor Sheridon to inform audiences about the Duttons via the prequel we know as 1883. However, the viewers are not fully satisfied with learning the background and want to learn more, demanding an 1883 season 2.

Are makers really thinking about making it, or perhaps the filming is under process already?? These are some of the rumored news roaming around the internet by fans and critics. But how much of it is true? Let’s dig deep to find all the authentic information about 1883 Season 2: Latest news, rumors, and release date.

Is 1883 season 2 happening?

Initially, the news came that Taylor Sheridan never thought of introducing a second season. A second season was never in the plan and was not talked about. Taylor Sheridan himself has said. I have made this peek in order to represent you on this particular journey.

I wouldn’t say I like to tie everything together, and I don’t like to showcase if they have a happy ending or not. I just wanted to make something for you that is absolutely charming and satisfying. I want to deliver the never-seen Yellowstone.Furthermore, he said, “I feel like a closed-ended narrator.

We will get a glimpse of various eras and will notice what appears. Thus, viewers can conclude that 1883 has served us with unthinkable and forgetting moments. It was a nice thought of him to retain this specific series. In one interview, the creator stated that the series offers to provide us with the glips and short experience of the history rather than a wide list of various seasons.

Nevertheless, change is the only constant in the world; the minds of creators change a bit. At the start of this year, good news came from the CEO of Viaco CBS Media Networks MTC entertainment studios, who claims that the Yellowstone 1883 universe has a lot more to explore than what is already being discovered. Thus, we hint at a second season in 1883. Although not confirmed, fans can excerpt a new season of the amazing franchise.

1883 Season 2 release date and platform

The original franchise is on its way to hit TV screens in the middle of this year. And being the major series of the Yellowstone franchise, obviously, it is one of the top priorities of makers. We all have seen how much of a delay had occurred in the development and release of Yellowstone season 5.

Thus, there is no guarantee when the new season will be launched, followed by season 2 of 1883. Fans might have to wait till 2025 or even beyond that to witness the comeback of their favorite characters from the past era.

The rumored platform to watch the Yellowstone prequel is Paramount, where all the other seasons of Yellowstone can be easily accessed. We are still waiting to be finished regarding the platforms announced by authorities.

1883 Season 2 Cast

The biggest good news about the 1883 Season 2 is regarding its cast, as most of the old cast has shown interest in reprising their roles. Isabel May is the most visible name on this list. She will be getting back into her role as Elsa Dutton and will be enchanting us through the screen with her amazing acting skills.

At the same time, some of the other significant names will be back on screen. This includes Tim McGraw getting back as James Dillard, Sam Elliot as Shea Brenan, Faith Hill as the beautiful Margaret Dutton, and Dawn Oliveri in her signature role of Claire Dutton. Some new faces might also be added to the series to deepen the plot. However, casting still needs to be done.

1883 Season 2 Rumored Plot

The theme of 1883 revolved around the post-civil war generation of the Dutton family. The circumstances forced the members to leave their belongings in Tennessee and settle in Fort Worth, Texas. The rest of the journey explains the struggles of the Dutton family in starting a new life and conquering the area.

Season 2 is expected to enlighten the journey further, emphasizing different aspects of the family’s life.

How to watch 1883 online?

As 1883 season 2 has not been shot yet, it’s obvious you won’t be finding any episode or role on any platform. However, People who want to watch the episodes of 1883 can turn to Paramount by subscribing to any of the offered plans. There is no other official platform, such as Netflix, where the episode can be watched.

Conclusion

1883 season 2 is one of the most awaited seasons of the Yellowstone franchise. However, is it still happening? What will be the 1883 cast, release date, and story? If you want to get the answers to all such questions, read the above content carefully.

Navigating the World of Online Dating: Tips and Tricks for Success

Dating can be as tricky or straightforward as you want to make it, but with modern dating apps and a climate of respect around the online dating industry, it is now more accessible than ever. Nevertheless, there are a few things you should bear in mind if you want your dating venture to be successful and productive (i.e., find your Prince Charming or Princess Delight). This post will outline some of these facts and hopefully help you find the sort of love that has possibly eluded you over the years.

Have Fun During The Process

Dating can be a stressful experience, and for those who have been out of the game for some time or are entirely new to the process, you can actually make it fun as opposed to terrifying! While many of the most popular dating apps, like Tinder, take pleasure in the swipe to disregard, others take a more lightweight and whimsical approach and use dating games to lighten the atmosphere. This can really reduce the anxiety involved and help you to eke the most from yourself, in order to help you fully present yourself to other people without fear of embarrassment. By making things more fun, you will feel better about the process and be more likely to relax and message potential partners in a far more relaxed manner. 

Understand The Red Flags

Online dating has its fair share of pros and cons, with one of the more insidious flaws being the non-physical nature of the game. Understanding potential red flags when engaging with matches online is vital to staying safe and finding someone special. Some signs to look out for include:

  1. Profiles that lack basic details
  2. Only use group photos (not always a bad thing, but something to be aware of)
  3. Missing photos
  4. Matches being too upfront in the initial messages

Be cautious of matches pushing too fast for offline contact, like phone numbers, dates, or visits, without first building rapport and trust. Also, be wary of story inconsistencies or details that don’t align between their profile and messaging conversations. It is always best to err on the side of caution but also to use common sense and not get taken away with fanciful stories, etc.

Keep The Conversation Flowing (Not Always About Yourself, Though)

It’s essential to keep communication engaging when connecting with potential partners online. While sharing details about yourself is still crucial early on, the focus shouldn’t always be on talking exclusively about your own life, interests, and experiences. Ask questions to learn about the other person and find common interests to discuss. Compliment something you notice in their profile, photos, or something they’ve told you as a way to continue the dialogue.

Know How And When To Meet Up In Person

While connecting online is convenient, ultimately, the goal for many dating app users is finding an in-person connection. It’s important to gauge the right timing for an initial meet-up. Exchanging messages for a week or two can help establish whether you enjoy conversing and seem compatible. Look for signs of mutual interest, like consistent response times and lengthier discussions. Feel free to broach the topic and propose a low-key public setting like coffee or a walk in the park. Daytime hours are usually best for a first encounter. Exchange phone numbers before and let friends/family know details of your plans for safety. Consider video chatting first if long distance is a factor. 

Online dating can appear to be a labyrinth of wrong turns and potential embarrassment, but when you approach it correctly, you will find it a great place to find love. As long as you understand what to look out for and keep the process fun, you will succeed.
