Katie Alice Greer, formerly the lead singer of Priests, has announced Barbarism, her debut full-length album. The record is led by the new song “FITS/My Love Can’t Be,” which arrives with a music video that Greer directed, produced, and edited herself. Watch the video below.
Barbarism is due out June 24 via FourFour. The LP follows Greer’s three solo EPs: Freaky 57, 3 Colors, and No One Else on Earth. Of the new single, Greer said in a statement:
I’d spent something like 70 days mostly alone since the pandemic started. Then one weekend I biked out to Fairfax Avenue and found myself amongst thousands of people. It was jarring…. To go from mostly the stillness of a barely-lived-in bedroom to projectile shopping carts, strangers chanting, phalanxes of beige gun toters, and tanks parallel parked outside luxury underwear and grocery shops on Melrose. Stuff was on fire. I think I listened to Exile on Main St. headed home, because it’s similarly contradictory and complicated mixture of emotions felt resonant. I wanted to try and capture all that I was feeling without so much as re-telling events that inspired the emotions themselves.
Priests released their final album, The Seduction of Kansas, in 2019 and promptly announced an indefinite hiatus. Read Pitchfork’s 2019 interview “Priests on What It Means to Be an American Rock Band Right Now.”
