Indie-pop outfit TEEN<\/a> will return early next year with a brand-new album, Good Fruit, their follow-up to 2016′ s Love Yes<\/a>. The Brooklyn-based sisters’ first self-produced account, It arrives on March 1st, 2019 via Carpark.<\/p>\n

Good Fruit middles around themes of push for from past traumas, and its result single,” Only Water”, illustrates that perfectly. As the band’s Teeny Lieberson explains in a press release, the carol is about the loss of the trio’s father to lymphoma in 2011. “’Only Water’ tells the story of my experience of my father’s sickness and demise, ” she says.” “It explores the final times that I had with him, as well as the processing of the loss of a mother. As it has been many years since his death, my relationship to losing him has changed. I have been thinking a lot about the idea of belonging and how it can even exist once someone has died. The song questions this principle; if we are all liquid, can’t I have you? Can I be you? Which in, abstractly, is a festivity of letting start. The liberty within oneness as well as nothingness .” <\/p>\n

Accompanying the single is a Nova Scotia-set video from head Charles Billot, who films the band as they emerge from the sea, span a grove, and dancing in a flower-strewn field. Despite the somber subject matter, the song is, like much of TEEN’s work, a glittering, spacey slice of propulsive popping distinguished by the sisters’ striking harmonies. Check it out below.<\/p>\n
