Golden Apples Announce New Album ‘Shooting Star’ and Share Video for Lead Single: Watch

June 23, 2025 Ben Pagani

Philadelphia band Golden Apples have announced a new album. The group, led by by singer and songwriter Russell Edling, will release Shooting Star on September 19 via Lame-O Records. Today the band also shared their new album’s lead single and title track “Noonday Demon,” along with a music video. Find the new video, tour dates, tracklist and album artwork below.

“Noonday Demon” addresses the way anxiety and paranoia can make you sort of lose track of yourself and your identity – turning your world upside down and alienating you from the people around you at the same time,” said Edling about the new single.

Shooting Star will be Golden Apple’s fourth album. Pre-order a copy here.
