Daughter have today shared the new single “Party.” It’s the English trio’s latest teaser from their upcoming album Stereo Mind Game.
Like a crowded gathering in the wee hours in the morning after maybe drinking a few too many, “Party” is a bittersweet, meandering tune in which people and the histories you’ve made with them become fuzzy. Over a steadily chugging guitar, vocalist Elena Tonra sorts through her fading memories like a photo album she feels like she can no longer hold on to: “I’m scared I’ve lost my head/ I’m trying to keep my cool/ My friends are vanishing,” she sings as the track builds into its dreamy climax.
The Tiff Pritchett-directed music video for “Party” perfectly encapsulates the song’s nostalgic essence, with retro, lo-fi clips of Tonra layered over each other in hazy purple hues. Listen to Daughter’s “Party” below.
