Touché Amoré‘s new song “Displacement” premiered online today and is available for streaming below. It’s the second track to be debuted from the band’s forthcoming new album, “Stage Four“, which finds frontman Jeremy Bolm coming to terms with the loss of his mother to cancer. Bolm told Stereogum of the song:
“The word ‘displacement’ in Greek is Metastasis, which is the term used when cancer has spread from one organ to another. Having “dis” in the title felt like a good head nod to Discharge, Disfear, Disclose, etc. as this song has a strong D-beat presence. Most of my lyrics are autobiographical, but this one feels more like stating facts than word play. It touches on my faith or lack thereof in the afterlife. How for her sake I want to believe in heaven because it’s what she deserves.”
“Stage Four” will be released on September 16th through Epitaph.
