Los Angeles’s Death Valley Girls have announced their new album ‘Under the Spell of Joy’ is set for release on October 2nd via Suicide Squeeze Records and the band have unveiled new single taken from the album ‘The Universe’.
Speaking about the album and new single, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Bonnie Bloomgarden said:
“‘Under the Spell of Joy’ is a space-gospel record. We believe we served as channels for what we think are guides. As we learn what the songs are about we realize they are meant to be sang like chants, hymns, or spells. Most of the songs were recorded with 12 voices, including a kids choir! We are learning that words with intention and energy hold so much power, especially when said or sang with a group. ‘The Universe’ is a song to sing, a space to be, a time to think, remember, and truly feel that not only are we all connected, but we are also being guided.”
Bloomgarden also had this to say ahead of the release:
“The world is crazy right now and it feels like we should be doing more than just trying to perpetuate joy. I think music becomes a part of you. Like Black Sabbath’s first record is as much a part of me as my own music. I think you can listen to music or song to get lost in it, or you can listen to music to find something in your self or the world that either you never had or just went missing. I want people to sing to this record, make it their own, and focus on manifesting their dreams as much as they can!”
