Purity Ring have announced their self-titled fourth album.
Set for release on September 26 via their own imprint the fellowship, it marks the Canadian electro-pop duo's first full-length project since 2020's 'Womb' and follows 2022's 'Graves' EP.
Inspired by video games like Nier Automata and Final Fantasy X, the record was created as a soundtrack to an imagined role-playing game, with members Corin Roddick and Megan James serving as the protagonists, who are "on a journey to build a kinder world amid the ruins of a broken one."
To coincide with the announcement, the pair have shared a new single, place of my own, a dreamy pop offering with choral textures and synthy melodies. They previously teased the record with the two-part single, many lives and part II. Commenting on the new song, the band said:
"This is one of those songs that came into being with ease and immediacy. We were in a hazy forest in the mountains, and the beat felt just like the cloud we were in. It was succinct and ready for the type of lyrics that imbued places we dream of, places we wish we could exist in, places we see everyday but are just out of reach. In the end, this song is meant as a sort of spell in the way that maybe we can reach these places if we watch our steps carefully, if we take the time to build them for ourselves."
Purity Ring have also announced a North American tour for the fall, which includes stops in New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, and more. Tickets go on general sale at 10am local time on July 17.
