The Canadian indie post-punk band WHITE LUNG will release their new studio album "DEEP FANTASY" on June 13, 2014, via Domino Records (distributed by Good To Go)
After a year-long Sorry tour, celebrated by Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, and Interview, White Lung continued as a trio in the studio: drummer Anne-Marie Vassiliou, guitarist Kenneth William, and frontwoman Mish Way. The album was recorded in two ten-day sessions with producer Jesse Gander at the end of '13/beginning of '14.
Mish Way is more provocative than ever on Deep Fantasy: she examines addiction ("Drown With The Monster"), muscle dysmorphia ("Snake Jaw"), and sexual dynamics ("Down It Goes"), along with other barroom topics. "I feel like the lyrics of most bands are just incredibly dull and that annoys me," she says. "Sex is, for example, one of the most interesting topics I talk about. Culturally, it's the thing we all do, yet there's such a weird fear about talking about it. I would like to normalize the conversation about sex because it's just interesting and we all think about it anyway!"
