Skullcrusher Announces New Album and Shares Video for Lead Single “Exhale”: Watch
Skullcrusher has announced a new album. The record And Your Song is Like a Circle will be released on October 17 via Dirty Hit. It will be her first LP with the label. The lead single “Exhale” is out now and comes complete with a music video. Keep reading to watch it and hear the new song.
“‘Exhale’ is about noticing the moment when a song is first conceived,” said Skullcrusher, whose real name is Helen Ballentine. “There is a part of me that wants to stop there and leave the song unfinished, before structure settles in and the song evolves. Instead, I allow it to form & accept whatever it may become. This process feels natural, like taking a pause at the top of your inhale before letting it all out. Maybe through acknowledging this process I can feel more at peace with change in general. When thoughts, words & sounds interact in a certain way they can reveal a path forward. Sometimes I want to linger before this path, in a space that feels hidden and safe, but in the end I take the path & surrender to change.”
“Exhale” is focused on Skullcrusher’s vocal performance and also features an abundance of synths and strings, adding to a moving instrumental section. It is one of ten songs that will appear on And Your Song is Like a Circle. Check out the full tracklist and view the album’s cover art below. Pre-order and pre-save the new album here.
