The Lemonheads are again. Evan Dando and the band have a brand new album, Love Chant, on the way in which, and a sweeping tour of North America and Europe to go together with it. Under, hear to guide single “Within the Margin” and take a look at the dates, forward of the album’s October 24 launch by way of Hearth.
Of “Within the Margin,” Dando says in a press launch, “I needed to have a riffy tune, so I wrote riffs throughout it. The physique of the tune was Marciana [Jones]’s. It’s like a full-on Eighth-grade lady revenge tune: ‘Stupidly I left the escape plans out so they may discover my means.’”
On Love Chant, Evan Dando and the band are joined by J Mascis, Juliana Hatfield, Bryce Goggin, Erin Rae, the Blake Infants’ John Strohm, and the Bevis Frond’s Nick Saloman, in addition to co-writers Adam Inexperienced and Tom Morgan on “Wild Factor” and “Deep Finish,” respectively. Apollo Nove produced the LP.
The Lemonheads’ final album of authentic songs was their 2006 self-titled LP. Since then, they’ve dropped a pair of covers albums, Varshons and Varshons 2, and themselves been coated by the likes of MJ Lenderman and Courtney Barnett. Dando will launch a memoir, Rumors of My Demise, on October 7.
