New Pagans announce debut album ‘The Seed, The Vessel, The Roots and All’

NEW PAGANS have announced their debut album!

Titled The Seed, The Vessel, The Roots and All, the upcoming album from the Belfast-based band is their debut full-length album and is scheduled to be released in March this year, via their new home at Big Scary Monsters.

Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new song from their upcoming album; Christian Boys. The song itself is about one of lead singer Lyndsey McDougall’s friends, who told her about a Christian leader in Northern Ireland with whom she had been having an affair just before he got married to his virgin bride.

Speaking about the new song, the band says, “this is shocking but what is more disturbing is that it hadn’t been the first-time similar stories had emerged. When these men were confronted, they all stated that the women were to blame, it had been their fault, they were the sinners and had led the Christian men astray. This song calls out the people who blame others for their mistakes and don’t take responsibility for their own actions. Lyndsey knows that some of the lyrics in the song could be considered controversial, but she has grown up around Christian men and believes that this conversation needs to happen, it shouldn’t be off limits.”
