Poliça announces new record, video

Thom Fountain |

Well, that was quick. A little over a year after Minneapolis/Eau Claire based Poliça released their debut album, Give You The Ghost, they’ve announced their sophomore record, Shulamith, which will be out this fall.

The band announced the new record with a grisly (and possibly NSFW) video of their first single, “Tiff” – featuring friend of the band Justin Vernon – and a new website with an apparent tracklist and lyric sheets. ”Tiff” maintains Poliça’s signature funky electronic sound and frontwoman Channy Leaneagh’s gritty, dark vocal melodies.

The video that accompanies “Tiff” is a dark scene showing Leaneagh torturing herself in increasingly intense fashion as the song builds to a crescendo of her and Vernon trading vocal lines. It’s definitely not for the faint of heart.

Shulamith will be out this fall on Mom + Pop Records.
