Death Bells Announce New LP 'Between Here & Everywhere', Stream "Lifespring"

Los Angeles-via-Sydney dream pop/post-punk band Death Bells have announced the release of their third studio album 'Between Here & Everywhere'. 

The 9-track album "captures the cross-section of Southern California’s shadowy hidden interzones, outside of the lights and luxury," and will be out on July 29 via Dais Records. Pre-order your copy here.

The new songs represent Will Canning and Remy Veselis’ continual growth, as well as accompaniment by an experienced cast of contributors on keys, strings, piano, and operatic backup vocals. Recorded with Colin Knight at Paradise Studios, and mixed by Mike Kriebel at Golden Beat, Between Here & Everywhere bristles with immediacy and emotion, with every element tactile, balanced, and elevated.

Between Here & Everywhere sets out to map the potent mess of Los Angeles. Canning cites the “vastness” of the band’s adopted home as a constant muse, and much like the city itself, the album ebbs gradually from harrowing to hopeful over its 35-minute runtime. The lyrics are categorized as “narrative, but not autobiographical,” born of intrigue, intimacy, and a sense of “looking outward.”

About the new single, they say: “We initially wrote Lifespring at a friend’s studio, before the last record was even an idea. I thought I had lost the stems, but discovered them recently on a USB that had been sitting in my jacket pocket for the last few years, so we were able to finally finish the song.
The lyrical inspiration for Lifespring came from reading about a fairly spurious organization of the same name that were around until the mid-90s. Musically, it feels very different from anything we’ve done before; sleazier, groovier.”
