Touché Amoré announce their first new album in 4 years, Spiral in a Straight Line, set for release 11th October. The announcement coincides with the release of the band’s new single and visualizer “Nobody’s,” its first official release following their signing to the renowned Rise Records. Recorded with legendary producer Ross Robinson (KoRn, Slipknot, Glassjaw, At The Drive-In etc), Spiral In A Straight Line features collaborations with Julien Baker (of boygenius) and Lou Barlow (Dinosaur Jr., Sebadoh, The Folk Implosion).  

Speaking about “Nobody’s,” Touché Amoré frontman Jeremy Bolm shares: “’Nobody’s’ is the opening track on our upcoming album Spiral In A Straight Line. In just a handful of lyrics, it gives the broad strokes of the album. A song and record about forward movement while everything around you becomes destabilised.”

The new song is a rousing statement of intent from the LA-based band, rooted in life-altering changes and the upheaval of moving forward while grappling with what’s been left behind. Returning to work with famed producer Ross Robinson for the second time following their critically acclaimed 2020 album Lament, which was awarded Best New Album by Pitchfork, Spiral In A Straight Line challenges the band to dig deep again. As a result, they return with a poignant body of work that captures a distinctly universal phenomenon – spiraling – and getting caught in the emotional debris of the words, emotions, memories and pain that are left after things are flipped upside down.

Alongside the news of the album, Touché Amoré are announcing their 2024 US headline tour, which will include support from Soul Glo, Portrayal of Guilt and Soft Blue Shimmer. Tickets will go on-sale Friday, July 26th, 2024 at 10AM local time in each market at toucheamore.com.
