Yours Truly announce new EP ‘is this what i look like?’
YOURS TRULY have announced a new EP!
Titled is this what i look like?, the upcoming EP is the follow-up to the Australian pop-punk band’s 2020 debut full-length Self Care, and is scheduled to be released in July this year via UNFD.
Originally planned as a three-track companion to their debut album, the upcoming EP now comprises seven tracks and sees the band seeking to push forward in every direction.
Speaking about the new EP, vocalist Mikaila Delgado comments, “My entire adult life has been YOURS TRULY. With that taken away, I was in a bad place. Not being able to perform was depressing. All the songs are about coming to terms with who you are and who you want to be.”
Delgado adds, “I wear my heart on my sleeve. I’ve always been open with things like my health and what I’ve gone through, but I was very aware we live in a world where people use social media to show off idealised versions of their lives. We never want to pretend everything is perfect. This is my dirty laundry. It’s me saying I’m an anxious mess, I don’t know who I am but I’m trying to figure it out.”
Alongside the announcement of the upcoming EP, the band have released a new music video for the record’s lead single Hallucinate, which features guest vocals from Josh Franceschi of YOU ME AT SIX.
Speaking about the new single, Delgado explains, “Hallucinate is an anxiety attack turned into music, detailing how it takes over your body so totally that it feels as if you’re under the influence of something. I’ve struggled badly with anxiety and it’s debilitating every day to be at war with your own thoughts. It’s one of the darkest songs we’ve ever written but I found a lot of power in pulling out the chaos of how anxiety feels and sounds to me and putting it in a song.”
