Memphis punks Nots have announced a new album. The band’s third LP is called 3 and it’s out May 10 via Goner. Check out the album’s first single, “Half Painted House,” below.
“[The song is] about being stuck in a haze of repetitive cycles while change proves to be both stubborn and elusive,” Natalie Hoffmann said in a statement. “The veneer of what it looks like to be ‘normally functioning’ during these tumultuous times is peeling to reveal a mind struggling to keep from turning against itself.”
Nots’ new album follows 2016’s Cosmetic. It’s also the Nots’ first album as a trio; Alexandra Eastburn left the band last year. The band’s current lineup is Hoffmann, Charlotte Watson, and Meredith Lones. (Charlotte Watson and Meredith Lones are also in the band Hash Redactor, whose new album Drecksound is out April 26.)
