Foxygen announce new album ‘Seeing Other People’

Foxygen have announced the release of their new album ‘Seeing Other People’, set to be released on 26th April via Jagjaguwar. They’ve also shared a video for single ‘Livin’ A Lie’, which you can watch below.

The new album was recorded entirely by the band themselves at Sonora Recorders in Los Feliz, California and engineered and mixed by Shawn Everett.

In a letter, the band’s Sam Fence explained how the album is something of a “goodbye” album: “Goodbye to the drugs, to the partying. Goodbye to my twenties now, Goodbye to my Saint Laurent-model-body. Goodbye to the touring circus — that’s right, no more shows or tours for a while. Goodbye, hopefully, to the anxiety attacks. Goodbye to beating myself up because I didn’t fit into those leather pants anymore. Fuck it. Goodbye to the facilities. And goodbye the leeches in my life. I remember a quote from Rado sticking with the press a few years ago about how we’d lived every rock n roll cliche in, about, one year. Well, here’s the album about it. Another movie. I don’t know what’s next. But here’s a snapshot of it all.”

The video for the band’s new single shows Sam wandering around a near-empty house while bandmate Jonathan Rado is among friends in a recording studio, before the house eventually collapses. Watch it below.
