Rarity announce new album ‘Lower Feeling’

RARITY have announced a new album!

Titled Lower Feeling, the upcoming album from the Canadian post-hardcore band is the follow-up to 2019’s The Longest Lonesome, and is scheduled to be released in June this year, via New Damage Records.

Speaking about the new album, vocalist Leoden Learn says, “this record at the end of the day is about growth. Growth as human beings, growth as friends, growth as four musicians trying to make the best songs they possibly can in a band they love. This record is a record of love, a record of passion and a record of brutal honesty. The lyrics are personal and introspective, with themes that I absolutely hated talking about with every fibre of my being. My worst fears and greatest dreams. This record is about losing self control, not being able to hold your brain together in times of sadness and pain, and taking things you have no control over way too seriously.

While the lyrics may convey feelings of sadness and anger, the record itself couldn’t be further from. We loved writing this record, and we miss waking up every day being able to make this record. It is everything RARITY as a band have always wanted to be, and we’re just so happy to be here. We’re happy we’re able to make music and live this crazy emotional rollercoaster of a life that we live. We wouldn’t have it any other way. We truly sincerely hope people enjoy Lower Feeling as much as we enjoyed making it, because we really truly loved every second of it.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, RARITY have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Brain Dance. The new song is the third single to be released from the upcoming album, following on from OKAY and Keep It To Yourself.

Speaking about the new song, Learn says, “this song is all about cruising in the left lane, going a bit too fast while everything else seems to slow down. It’s about hopping in the car, hitting the gas with one mission: getting home as soon as possible. Once you’re there, it’s all about locking the door, slipping back into your room, and zoning out from the world for a while longer.”
