Laufey has announced a new album, A Matter of Time. The Icelandic Chinese singer and composer's follow-up to 2023's Bewitched arrives August 22 (via Vingolf/AWAL). Aaron Dessner produced the LP alongside Spencer Stewart. 'Tough Luck,' which leads the album, is 'a fiery song about love gone wrong,' Laufey said in press materials. 'I wanted to reveal an angrier side of myself—a side that this unfortunate relationship brought out in me.' Listen to that below.
Of the album, Laufey added, 'People expect a pretty facade of girly clothes, fantastical stories, and romantic music. This time, I was interested in seeing how I could draw out the most flawed parts of myself and look at them directly in the mirror.' Check out her tour dates with various orchestras below.
$37.00, Rough Trade

Hand Habits Announces New Album and Tour, Shares Video for New Song 'Wheel of Change': Watch
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. Hand Habits' Meg Duffy, photo by Bronwyn Ford 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.

Clipse Announce Let God Sort Em Out , First New Album Since 2009
Clipse's No Malice and Pusha T, photo by Cian Moore After years of teasing, Pusha T and No Malice have made it official: There will be a new Clipse album. Let God Sort Em Out, the Thornton brothers' long-awaited follow-up to December 2009's Til the Casket Drops, is out July 11 via Roc Nation Distribution. Longtime collaborator Pharrell Williams produced the new album, and Kaws did the artwork. The new album's lead single, 'Ace Trumpets,' is out on Friday, May 30. During their 2000s heyday, Clipse released three studio albums—Lord Willin' (2002), Hell Hath No Fury (2006), and Til the Casket Drops—and three volumes of their iconic We Got It 4 Cheap mixtape series. After Clipse went on hiatus, Pusha T released numerous standout projects, beginning with 2011's Fear of God mixtape and extending to the 2022 studio album It's Almost Dry. No Malice, meanwhile, shared just two albums, Hear Ye Him (2013) and Let the Dead Bury the Dead (2017). Clipse reunited, in 2019, on Kanye West's Jesus Is King song 'Use This Gospel.' The Thorntons have since performed together regularly, playing sets at Primavera Sound Barcelona, Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival, and elsewhere. Originally Appeared on Pitchfork
