Pillow Queens explore a longing for intimacy on "Like A Lesson"
Irish indie rock band Pillow Queens have shared their latest track, "Like A Lesson", which is taken from their forthcoming third studio album, Name Your Sorrow.
On the raw subject matter of the song which looks at the desire for closeness as well as the fears and insecurities that come with sharing one's self, the band says the track dives into "the notion of finding safety and comfort in the presence of love of limerence is emphasized, contrasting with the paralyzing fear of making mistakes or ruining your life or someone else’s. It delves into the feeling of being a lesson for someone, a side character in someone else’s story."
The band continues, "Sonically, we were influenced by a range of artists from Blur and REM to Seminsonic, New Radicals, and Squeeze. It began as a song we felt had a strong country music influence and morphed into something that referenced a wide range of our musical tastes. It’s the 90s soft rock song on the album."
Name Your Sorrow, is due for release on 19 April and is available for pre-order now.
