Hand Habits has announced a new album. Blue Reminder, Meg Duffy's proper follow-up to 2021's Fun House, is out August 22 via Fat Possum. The record was recorded and co-produced by Joseph Lorge, and features contributions from Gregory Uhlmann, Blake Mills, Daniel Aged, and SML's Josh Johnson and Anna Butterss. Watch the Otium-directed music video for lead single 'Wheel of Change' below.
'Both lyrically and in its production, this song is about the impossibility of return—you can't go back to the way things were, no matter how much you might want to hold on to a time, or a feeling, or a person,' Duffy said of 'Wheel of Change' in a press statement. 'In longing, there can be this sharper, wild edge. Like, no I need this, give it to me, don't take it away.'
In 2023, Duffy shared the Hand Habits EP Sugar the Bruise and teamed up with Uhlmann as Duffy x Uhlmann to put out the instrumental Doubles. The singer and guitarist recently collaborated with the National's Matt Berninger on a song from his new solo LP, Get Sunk.
Duffy will head out on tour later this year. They have shows in support of Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Japanese Breakfast, and Perfume Genius. See the tour dates below.

Max Richter Announces New Album Sleep Circle and All-Night London Shows
All products featured on Pitchfork are independently selected by Pitchfork editors. However, when you buy something through our retail links, Condé Nast may earn an affiliate commission. Max Richter, photo by Rory van Millingen Max Richter is celebrating the 10th anniversary of his landmark album Sleep with a sequel of sorts, Sleep Circle, and two London shows. The record returns to the hypnagogia of its eight-hour predecessor, presenting music composed to enhance the drifting consciousness of drowsy and dozing listeners. This one lasts 90 minutes, the length of a typical REM cycle. A song from the suite, 'Dream 11 / Moth-Like Stars (Pt. 2),' is out now; check it out below. Sleep Circle is out September 5 via Deutsche Grammophon. Richter's London shows take place at Alexandra Palace on September 5 and 6, reviving the all-night format that he debuted around the original album's 2015 release. These are his largest Sleep shows to date. Read the 5-10-15-20 feature 'Max Richter on the Music That Made Him.' $55.00, Amazon Originally Appeared on Pitchfork

Sean Penn Reacts (30 Years Later) to Madonna Calling Him the Love of Her Life
In her 1991 documentary Truth or Dare, Madonna declared that Sean Penn was the love of her life. And more than three decades later, the actor is sharing his thoughts on it. In an interview on The Louis Theroux Podcast posted Monday (May 12), Penn said that his superstar ex-wife was 'very sweet' for her remarks in the Alek Keshishian-directed doc when asked whether he recalled what she'd said. 'I do,' he told Theroux. 'Look, she's been a good friend for a lot of years.' More from Billboard Madonna Teams Up With Shawn Levy and Netflix For a Limited Series Based on Her Life: Report Twenty One Pilots Fans Jumped Into Veronica Mars Mode After Someone Took Off With One of Josh Dun's Bespoke Drums Palm Tree Festival to Debut in St. Tropez With Headliners A$AP Rocky & Swedish House Mafia The two-time Oscar-winning actor went on to reflect on his four-year marriage to Madge, with whom he also co-starred in 1986's Shanghai Surprise. After their divorce in 1989, the exes stayed friends. 'It didn't take us long to realize that we had mistaken a good first date for a wedding partner,' Penn said. 'It didn't take us long to recover after we got divorced, maybe a year, in a friendship. I have a lot of fond memories of it – it's not all jail.' The actor added: 'But there was a lot of alcohol and she'd be fairly accusing me of that.' Following her split from Penn, the 'Material Girl' singer would go on to marry Guy Ritchie in 2000 before they separated in 2008. Penn was married to Robin Wright from 1996 to 2010, followed by Leila George from 2020 to 2022. Penn's thoughts on the Truth or Dare documentary come just after a report that a long-awaited biopic about Madonna's life is finally in the works. According to Deadline, the star has teamed up with Shawn Levy for a Netflix limited series about her life and career. Madge is also currently working on new music with producer Stuart Price, who worked on her Billboard 200-topping 2005 album Confessions on a Dance Floor. It's been about six years since the 'Vogue' singer last dropped a proper album, releasing Madame X in 2019.
