Flock of Dimes has announced that they have a new album on the way! On April 15, Flock of Dimes’ Head of Roses: Phantom Limb, which is a collection of unreleased tracks written around the same time as Head of Roses, will be released via Sub Pop. The collection will feature previously unheard demos, fan favorite live performances and covers. Along with the announcement of the new album, the new official video for “It Just Goes On”, which was co-directed by Jenn Wasner and Spence Kelly, has just been released.
The video for “It Just Goes On” shows Wasner at a small, but fun New Year’s party with all of her friends. The only problem is that she’s the only party-goer not having a good time. She sits between two couples, stands still on the dance floor and hangs out in the hallway. On the subject of her new single, Wasner says, “This is perhaps one of the most simple and direct songs I’ve ever made (and, also, one of my favorites!)–so it made sense to try and create a video that is similarly straightforward and heart-on-sleeve.” Watch the video below.
The album’s tracklist includes “It Just Goes On” and “Through Me”, which was released in October 2021. It also includes the old, acoustic demo of “Lightning” and a handful of previously unreleased Head of Roses outtakes.
