Shriek! The Lemonheads return with their first studio album featuring exclusively original material in nearly 20 years. After years of writing, wandering and new beginnings, as well as the release of the single »Fear Of Living«, Evan Dando returns with 11 original Lemonheads songs. Long in the making, shaped by changing geographies, created with a number of welcome guests, it's a bold, melodic affirmation of one of alternative rock's most distinctive voices.Dando's residency in Brazil, where much of the album was recorded, has allowed him to have a quiet shift of perspective in recent years – a chance to reorient himself, reconnect, and finally bring his songs into focus. The result is an album that sounds both fresh and familiar: rooted in the characteristics of the Lemonheads' best work, but enhanced by years of life experience and a new environment." "Love Chant" was produced by Brazilian multi-instrumentalist Apollo Nove and brings together old friends and new partners: J Mascis (Dinosaur Jr), Juliana Hatfield and Tom Morgan are back on board, along with producer Bryce Goggin (Pavement, Antony and the Johnsons), Erin Rae of Nashville, John Strohm of the Blake Babies and Nick Saloman of The Bevis Frond. And Adam Green from the New York cult band The Moldy Peaches is involved as a co-author in the casual country detour "Wild Thing". In recent years, the influence of The Lemonheads has become even more pronounced, acts such as MJ Lenderman, Courtney Barnett and Waxahatchee have covered Dando's songs, praising the emotional clarity, melodic instinct and ironic intimacy that characterize his lyrics. This cross-generational resonance makes »Love Chant« more than a return - it's a reminder of what this band was all about in the first place, and is now being expanded with a late climax.
