Ducks Ltd. have released a new song called ‘Sheets of Grey’, the band’s first new music since their debut album Modern Fiction. They’ve also rescheduled their UK dates for the fall. Listen to the new track and check out those dates below.
“This song is actually one of the oldest in our catalog. We wrote it around the same time as ‘Get Bleak’ or maybe a little bit after, and played it live a bunch, but never quite finished it,” lead singer and guitarist Tom McGreevy said of ’50 Sheets of Grey’ in a statement. “We kept poking at it for a long time until we finally got it to where we wanted it to be, which happened during the Modern Fiction sessions. We ended up leaving it off the record as it didn’t quite thematically fit with the other songs, but I’m excited we’re finally getting to put it out as I’ve always liked it. It’s about the inertia of depression, and how hard it can be to break out of those cycles, but also about the pleasure of embracing that state. There is a certain, temporary comfort to be found in the abyss! Somewhere right before it inevitably becomes extremely awful.”
Modern Fiction came out last year via Carpark Records. Read our Artist Spotlight interview with Ducks Ltd.
