Bat For Lashes announces new album, The Bride

Bat For Lashes has announced a new album. On July 1, Natasha Khan will release her fourth album, The Bride, via Warner Bros./Parlophone. The album was produced by Khan and features collaborators such as Dan Carey, Head, Simone Felice, and Ben Christophers. Today, she shared a new single from the album, titled “In God’s House,” which you can stream below. There’s also a conceptual thread that runs through the album.

“The Bride follows the story of a woman whose fiancé has been killed in a crash on the way to the church for their wedding,” a press release states. “The Bride flees the scene to take the honeymoon trip alone, resulting in a dark meditation on love, loss, grief, and celebration.”

The Bride follows 2012’s The Haunted Man, and last year’s psychedelic concept project, Sexwitch. Take a look at Bat For Lashes’ upcoming shows below, which will be performed in churches, and at which attendees are encouraged to wear formal wear or wedding attire.
