The genre-defying ensemble Devotchka announce their return with the new song “Straight Shot” from This Night Falls Forever, their August 24 album release on Concord Records.
“Straight Shot,” is the first track on the new album; a rhythmic and urgent opener for the group. “This song is like a moonlit swim through heartbreak, in a sea of ghosts from your past,” Devotchka frontman Nick Urata says. “When you realize the old neighborhood may be gone forever, but you can carry it with you through the darkest of days.”
After scoring films, TV, musicals, ballets, and performing with symphony orchestras,
Devotchka emerge from the studio with their sixth full-length album, featuring 11 songs that defy categorization. These songs straddle the line between the epic and the intimate. Devotchka has garnered much praise and attention for blurring the lines of genre and cultural influence, with this release we can clearly see they have slowly carved their own unique space in the modern musical landscape. Urata’s soaring vocal croon and poetic lyrics are back in full force. His voice travels atop ambitious film noir orchestras and live vintage voodoo rock combos.
This Night Falls Forever premieres August 24, 2018 on Concord Records. Available on vinyl, CD and digital. Pre-order for This Night Falls Forever begins on July 13, 2018.
