Teen Suicide's seventh LP is due this spring via Run For Cover Records. The album marks the band's first full-length release in three years, following honeybee table at the butterfly feast, which found renewed attention through tracks like "you were my star," a breakout success on TikTok. Originally formed in 2010 as a side project of Sam Ray, Teen Suicide gradually evolved while remain- ing a passion-driven endeavor. Since 2017, the lineup has included Kitty Ray, and in 2022 the band officially became a full-time project with the addition of drummer Niko Wood. Together, the trio began writing and recording their upcoming LP, Nude descending staircase headless. The album represents a series of firsts for the band: their first record recorded in a professional studio, their first release written and recorded as a full-time band, and their first since 2012 to feature a dedicated drummer throughout. It also marks the beginning of a fully shared writing process between Sam and Kitty Ray, who married in 2016 and collaborated from the ground up on the entire record, splitting both songwriting and vocal duties. Described by Sam Ray as the band's "career highlight so far," Nude descending staircase headless explores the endless pursuit of fulfillment through creation, threading motifs of death and rebirth with themes of embracing joy in the wake of immense loss. The record reframes the self not as an isolated object, but as a single strand within a larger, interconnected web. Standout tracks include "Idiot," which leans into direct, literal storytelling, and "Spiders," featuring Kitty Ray on lead vocals and introducing a darkly feminist undercurrent to the album's broader narrative. Musically, the band draws inspiration from artists such as Nirvana, Radiohead, Shellac, and Helmet, channeling the intensity and experimentation of late-'80s and '90s heavy rock. Their recent tours with DELTA SLEEP further highlight Teen Suicide's growing incorporation of math rock and metal influences into their evolving sound.
