Dehd have unveiled their third single, "Alien," taken from their forthcoming fifth studio album, Poetry.
The brand new single, "Alien" follows previous releases, "Mood Ring" and "Light On".
“Alien” delves into the concept of frontwoman Emily Kempf as an extraterrestrial being. She states: “This is about me being otherworldly, an artist of light, an angel, an alien or maybe some sort of faerie creature and wanting to find someone like me in this world, someone of my kind. Longing for this special person that’s as special as me to come around for me to love, but instead always coming to the same conclusion that I am fated to be a sort of loner hermit person with 1000 friends and that loving myself is the most important and rewarding thing I can consistently work on and do forever.”
On the heels of their album release, the band will set off to the UK and EU for an eight-stop headlining tour, including a show in Leeds on 1 July, and London’s Village Underground on 2 July.
Poetry is due for release on 10 May via Fat Possum Records, and is available to pre-order now.
