Swearin’, the alt-rock outfit of singer/songwriter Allison Crutchfield, have announced a new album, the band’s first since reuniting late last year. Called Fall Into the Sun, it’s due out October 5th via Merge. It follows 2013’s Surfing Strange.
Fall Into the Sun was self-produced and recorded in Philadelphia and Los Angeles, and marks the band’s first outing as a trio. Co-vocalis Kyle Gilbride and drummer Jeff Bolt remain with the group, while bassist Keith Spencer is absent from the reunited lineup.
Lead single “Grow Into the Ghost” is a lyrically rich slice of propulsive punk with a rollicking, infectious chorus. Hear it below.
Fall Into the Sun Tracklist:
01. Big Change
02. Dogpile
03. Grow Into a Ghost
04. Margaret
05. Stabilize
06. Untitled (LA)
07. Treading
08. Oil and Water
09. Smoke or Steam
10. Anyway
11. Future Hell
