Last month, Slow Pulp announced details of a new studio album, Yard, and shared its fuzzy, loved-up lead single "Slugs." Today the indie rock band returns with another taster of the upcoming record. "Doubt" is a tender and melodic song with a laidback vibe that masks its dark center.
“In my process to fight against self-deprecation, I found this strange new pattern popping up where I fished for critiques from others,” lead singer Emily Massey says of the song in a statement. “I wanted people close to me to validate the things I hated about myself. Self-doubt had found a home in me, it felt safer to stay in this familiar negative space than to like myself. I thought if others shared that with me I wouldn’t have to do the work to change.”
After the release of Yard, Slow Pulp will be hitting the road for an extensive run of shows in North America, U.K., and Europe. The tour kicks off in Milwaukee, WI on October 4, and wraps up more than two months later in Denmark. Check out the rest of the dates — plus the "Doubt" video — below.
