Touché Amoré announce new album and sign to Rise Records

Touché Amoré have announced their first new album in four years, Spiral in a Straight Line, set for release on 11 October via Rise Records.

This announcement coincides with the release of their new single and visualiser, “Nobody’s,” marking their first official release following their signing to the renowned Rise Records. The album was recorded with legendary producer Ross Robinson, known for his work with KoRn, Slipknot, Glassjaw, and At The Drive-In. Spiral in a Straight Line features collaborations with Julien Baker (of boygenius) and Lou Barlow (Dinosaur Jr., Sebadoh, The Folk Implosion).

Speaking about “Nobody’s,” Touché Amoré frontman Jeremy Bolm shares:

“'Nobody’s' is the opening track on our upcoming album Spiral in a Straight Line. In just a handful of lyrics, it gives the broad strokes of the album. A song and record about forward movement while everything around you becomes destabilised.”

The new song is a rousing statement of intent from the LA-based band, rooted in life-altering changes and the turmoil of moving forward while grappling with what’s been left behind. Returning to work with famed producer Ross Robinson for the second time following their critically acclaimed 2020 album Lament, which was awarded Best New Album by Pitchfork, Spiral in a Straight Line challenges the band to dig deep again. As a result, they return with a poignant body of work that captures a distinctly universal phenomenon—spiralling—and getting caught in the emotional debris of the words, emotions, memories, and pain that are left after things are flipped upside down.

1. Nobody’s
