Poliça unveil tender new track "Forget Me Now"

Arriving after October's "Driving", Poliça's new single is, in vocalist Channy Leaneagh's own words, "about recognizing a pattern of choosing people who can’t love you how you wish to be loved. It’s still remaining very grateful, counting blessings day and night; but don’t confuse being at peace with being a pushover. I think I wrote these words while angry-shoveling this winter. How does it go? 'Choose a liar once and that’s the liar’s fault; choose a liar three times and it seems maybe I likes liars?' All the songs are about me and none of them are; this isn’t an excerpt from my diary but it has been many times."

When We Stay Alive will be Poliça's first LP since collaborating with s t a r g a z e on last year's Music for the Long Emergency.

Half of Poliça's new album was written before Leaneagh's 10-foot fall, and half during her recovery, but Leaneagh wants to focus on the future, "I had been living unconsciously in past trauma. I don’t want to deny something happened - this is not about repression - it’s about taking the power back from the past, holding the power in the present, and creating a new story for myself."
