Screaming Females Announces New Album Desire Pathway and Share New Single “Brass Bell”

Today Don Giovanni Records have announced rock band Screaming Females will be releasing their eighth LP Desire Pathway on February 17.  Desire Pathway will be the band’s recent release in over eighteen years. Also in light of the news about the upcoming LP, Screaming Females have shared the single “Brass Bell.”

In the press release singer and guitarist Marissa Paternoster discusses the meaning of “Brass Bell.”

“Brass Bell” is a song about surrendering your autonomy to something so overwhelmingly powerful you willingly relinquish your ambitions and self-worth.  My intention was to draw an interesting dichotomy between the muscular nature of the song and the rather bleak, worried lyrics.”

Desire Pathway was recorded at Minnesota’s Pachyderm Studios and produced by Matt Bayles. The album captures the Screaming Females at a time when nothing was certain other than their abiding desire to make music together.
