Teen Suicide have returned with a new two-song single Fade 2 Blue / New Tattoo, out today via Run For Cover Records. 

The songs are the first new Teen Suicide music since the release of their 2022 album, 'honeybee table at the butterfly feast' and they find the band dipping back into charmingly raw home-recording. "Fade 2 Blue" is an instantly satisfying blast of distortion and melody that reminds listeners just how adept Teen Suicide mastermind Sam Ray can be with a hook, while "New Tattoo" strips back the volume and leans into Ray's impressive fretwork and gentle harmonies.

Ray discussed the new songs saying:

"These two songs were recorded in the brief period before Niko and Flip joined our band last year, probably summer / fall 24? So it's just Kit andI on these two tracks, and they're very home-recorded as so many of the best Teen Suicide songs have been over the years! So excited to finally have them up so you can all hear, I hope you like them as much as we do, and I hope it makes yall excited as we are for our next album, which will be quite a big shock after these... but in a good way, I promise."

Since forming Teen Suicide in 2009, Ray has led the project through endless sonic shifts and evolutions, always leaving listeners on their toes but completely along for the ride. From scrappy lo-fi punk to bombastic post-rock to ambient soundscapes, the most consistent thing about Teen Suicide and its various permutations is Ray's intense creativity and the deeply compelling songwriting that results from it.
