Will Butler + Sister Squares have released a new single.
Following Arrow Of Time, Willow and Long Grass, Stop Talking serves as the latest preview of the group's self-titled album, due out on September 22 via Merge.
One of the first songs written for the record, it's propelled by a percussive groove and layers of synths. Butler commented:
"This is one of the 'dream songs' on the record. Emotion in dreams; dreams in reality; tired and confused. ‘Stop talking; there’s nothing to say’; not sure if it functions as a dismissal ‘Stop!’, or as a sign of love ‘You don’t have to say it; I already know’; I think, like a lot of communication between people who love each other—a little of both? Like, this song is full of fear; someone expressing fear to their partner, and the partner being like, ‘There’s nothing to fear, and also, shut up, quit being crazy.’ That’s not exactly it, but there’s something of that here."
Will Butler + Sister Squares will support the record with North American, UK and Ireland tour dates this autumn.
