Listen to King Isis’ “cathartic” new single, LATELY

King Isis has just unveiled a brand-new single and video, LATELY.

The song was co-produced by Bartees Strange and is taken from their forthcoming five-track EP, SIRENITY, which is due out on June 13 via Dirty Hit/No Matter.

“LATELY is a cathartic release,” the musician shares. “The recognition that perfection doesn’t exist, that I don’t want to keep going through the motions and acceding to the same things. It’s sick of the same cycles, the same people and the same responses. It’s wanting to stand up for myself, wanting to live for me, even if it defies others expectations. It’s the introduction to new worlds, and new unknowns, allowing myself to the beauty of imperfection, of trial and error. That it’s okay to not be okay and try things. It’s renewal and cyclic changes at the beginning of Saturn return.”
