PALAYE ROYALE’S HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED NEW ALBUM
FEVER DREAM OUT NOW
Palaye Royale’s highly-anticipated new album Fever Dream is out today via Sumerian Records. Made in collaboration with Grammy-nominated producer Chris Greatti
(YUNGBLUD, WILLOW), the 13-track set came to life over the course of a
year, with the band working in deliberate seclusion and taking abundant
time to sculpt each lavishly orchestrated track. The resulting set is
their boldest and most visionary body of work to date.
Alongside
the album, the band is releasing a video for the song “Line It Up,”
feat. LP. The reflective ballad expresses the band’s desire to deviate
from suburban life. Legendary singer-songwriter LP lends her unmatched
vocals to the song, creating powerful harmonies that drive home the
track’s emotional and emphatic feel. The accompanying video, directed by
Ivy Tellin, intercuts footage from their recent North American headline
tour with scenes shot with LP at the famous Madonna Inn in San Luis
Obispo, CA. Watch the video here.
About
the collaboration, LP says, “I connected to this song right away.
Palaye write with such emotion and I feel like I’ve lived this song too.
All the bleak feelings coming together that ultimately make you wanna
live forever or die tomorrow. Raw shit.” Palaye Royale elaborates on
that, stating, “It’s such an honor to have such an epic human/musician
be on the track so organically. We know how beautiful the world can and
will be regardless of the darkness.”
Palaye Royale have been teasing out glimpses of Fever Dream throughout the last several months, including new single “Lifeless Stars,” Alternative Radio hit “Broken,” and the majestic title track “Fever Dream,”
a throat-shredding epic that fully embodies the transcendent spirit
that’s earned the band a cult-like following through the years. Other
sneak peaks include the confessional “Paranoid,” the darkly addictive “Punching Bag,” and the undeniably infectious “No Love In LA.”
Their fourth full-length album, Fever Dream
emerged from a much-needed break in the chaos, with the trio returning
to their roots and composing most of the album on piano, resulting in a
body of work that is equal parts ecstatic head rush and in-depth
meditation on the state of the human psyche. Palaye Royale explains,
“Making this record felt like getting back to when we first fell in love
with music.” They continue, “This record is very much about self-belief
and self-empowerment, and overcoming all the obstacles that life throws
at you. It’s the first time we’ve really taken a hopeful approach in
our music.”
With unparalleled swagger, the Las Vegas-bred brothers Remington Leith (vocals), Sebastian Danzig (guitar) and Emerson Barrett (drums)
have endlessly delivered an electrifying live show, one that frequently
finds Remington hanging from the rafters. The trio is at the tail end
of their North American headline run with Mod Sun, rounding out a busy
year on the road where the band brought their adrenaline-fueled
rock-n-roll circus to their biggest headline shows to date. They began
the year with an expansive North American tour with Yungblud, followed
by a sold-out headline tour across the UK and Europe, where they packed
venues like the Roundhouse in London and an arena in the Czech Republic
before hitting the European summer festival circuit. Their current
headline run was bookended with a raucous set at the When We Were Young
Festival in Las Vegas. They will play their final U.S. show of the year
at the Palladium in Los Angeles on November 6.
Equal
parts brit-pop, glam rock and art-punk, Palaye Royale has amassed over
half a billion streams throughout their career and earned a legion of
cult-like fans with their fast-paced dirty rock’n’ roll. First landing
in Los Angeles as teenagers, the brothers worked their way up through
the ruthless L.A. rock scene going from playing basement shows while
living out of their car to headlining arenas around the world. And
whether they’re taking the stage at major festivals like Reading and
Leeds, Download and Pinkpop or playing to sold-out crowds in such
far-flung locales as Amsterdam, Prague and Mexico City, the band’s most
crucial ambition is to deepen their rarefied connection with their
beloved fanbase, lovingly dubbed the Soldiers of the Royal Council.
