Big Thief release a new song titled Not EDIT. Available for download and streaming, the new song dropped after the band announced their forthcoming album Two Hands.
“Surrounded by 3,000 acres of pecan orchards and only a stone’s throw from the Mexican border, singer/guitarist Adrianne Lenker, guitarist Buck Meek, bassist Max Oleartchik, and drummer James Krivchenia — set up their instruments as close together as possible to capture their most important collection of songs yet,” the announcement reads.
The album was recorded days after the U.F.O.F sessions at the Sonic Ranch studio about 30 miles west of El Paso. “Two Hands has the songs that I’m the most proud of; I can imagine myself singing them when I’m old,” Adrianne Lenker said in a statement. “Musically and lyrically, you can’t break it down much further than this. It’s already bare-bones.”
Not what you really wanted
Nor the mess in your purse
Nor the bed that is haunted
with a blanket of thirst
It’s not the hunger revealing
Nor the ricochet in the cave
Nor the hand that is healing
