I first discovered Blood Lemon back in 2022 opening for Built to Spill (bassist/vocalist Melanie Radford is also a current member of Built to Spill). The Boise post-riot grrrl band just released a new single, "Perfect Too." It's a seven and a half slow burn of a song heavy on the moody side. It's a song that is begging to break out. It does, although it takes a while. When it finally does, it evolves into a New Wave-esque dance friendly rocker. Although it does keep its edge and sense of darkness. "Perfect Too" is an epic new single that seems to combine Built to Spill and the more rocking side of Neil Young with Dark Wave.
Melanie Radford says of her band's new single:
“We performed this song live on our Winter tour with Built to Spill a couple years ago and it became an instant favorite. It has a nice build and performing it live has been incredibly satisfying.”
You can watch the video for "Perfect Too" below. Petite Deaths is due out January 17 via Moon Ruins, and is available for pre-order through Bandcamp. For more on Blood Lemon, check out the band's website.
