Jessy Lanza announces third album with glitchy lead cut "Face"

"Face" is the second track to be shared from Lanza's forthcoming LP, after the Canadian artist returned with "Lick In Heaven" - her first solo single in four years - back in February.

According to Pitchfork, Lanza says of her new single, "I was fantasizing about what everyone was thinking based on their expressions. I found myself projecting my own feelings onto the strangers I was looking at. I went home and wrote the lyrics imagining that the commuters were having telepathic conversations with each other. The questions I imagined them asking each other oscillated from sexual to confrontational: ‘Baby is it just enough? Tell me do you want it all? Baby are you feeling tough? Feeling tougher more than not?'"

Lanza's forthcoming All The Time record will follow on from 2016's Oh No, and was written long distance between Lanza's new New York set up and longtime collaborator Jeremy Greenspan's home studio in Hamilton, Ontario.

Some of the tracks include live experiments using semi modular/modular equipment like Mother 32 and Dfam and Moog Sirin. Lanza says, "We got all of the machines talking to one another and would run patterns through. A lot of the little burps and quacks and squiggles heard on songs like "Anyone Around", Like "Fire", "Face", and "Badly" are from those experiments. That’s when I’m having the most fun, making music and improvising through takes of the song and editing together all the best gurgle sounds afterwards."
