L.A. Witch have released another single from their imminent third studio album.
Minimal and dark with a new-wave edge, Icicle is driven by snappy drumming and delicate, melancholy guitar tones reminiscent of Joy Division and The Cure. It arrives ahead of the release of 'DOGGOD', out this Friday (April 4) via Suicide Squeeze. Vocalist Sade Sanchez explained:
"Icicle is our coldest song on this record, written during a very dark period in my life. The lyrics explore themes of purification through self-sacrifice. The icicle in this song is symbolic of a knife or dagger and also a bit crystal like, symbolic of spiritual journey. The monotone vocal tone was my attempt to sing like a mix of Frank Sinatra and Ian Curtis."
The Southern California trio previously teased the record with the tracks The Lines and 777. They'll support it with a previously scheduled North American tour that begins in April and runs through to June. Tickets are on sale now. Head here for details.
Their latest album is 2020's 'Play With Fire', though they put out a split 7" single with The Coathangers, One Way or the Highway, in 2021.
