Ringlets – Heavenly Wheel: 13th Floor New Song Of The Day
Today, Ringlets announce details of their highly-anticipated sophomore album, The Lord Is My German Shepherd (Time For Walkies) and release new song, Heavenly Wheel.
Here is the blurb with more:
To be released on June 27th via Flying Nun Records and Leather Jacket Records, The Lord Is My German Shepherd (Time For Walkies) is the band’s shimmering follow-up to their distinct eponymous debut in 2023 and a vibrant expression of their singular song craft.
Produced by Ringlets – Arabella Poulsen (bass & vocals), Arlo Grey (drums), László Reynolds (guitar & vocals) and Leith Towers (lead-vocalist) – in Auckland at The Lab alongside Michael Logie (The Mint Chicks) and mixed by Isaac Keating at Abbey Road Studios, The Lord Is My German Shepherd (Time For Walkies) conjures mystic visions; takes raucous, unkempt yet solely committed turns, twists, and tiptoes delicately between the absurd and the divine.
Lead single ‘Heavenly Wheel’ rumbles at a steady pace. World-weary sentiments freighted across vast landscapes of gnarled, crushing bass and guitar tones and the drums of Father Time’s atomic clock.Accompanying the track is a music video directed and produced by Joe Curtis; vocalist Leith Towers shares:
“The song is about in-escapism—being trapped in the bed you’ve made for yourself. The video captures this concept through vignettes of endless and pointless tasks, ultimately suggesting that it’s not so bad when you’re in said bed together.”
The celestial wheel is the oracle of time. Is the wheel fated to fall down forever and crash to the bottom? Or is it gaining speed to launch off a vast, heroic ramp to be propelled into the lofty firmament of the stars?
The Lord Is My German Shepherd (Time For Walkies) is available for pre-order now on Translucent Green Vinyl with Obi Strip and on Exclusive Flying Nun Black. Pre-order or Pre-save here.
