Choir Boy are back with new single, "I'll Always Let You Down"

Choir Boy are back with new single, “I’ll Always Let You Down,” produced by Jorge Elbrecht (Sky Ferreira, Japanese Breakfast). The track arrives while the band are support on AFI’s current tour. “I’ll Always Let You Down” is available today via Dais Records and comes with a charmingly bizarre video directed and animated by Choir Boy themselves.

When pressed to describe what the song’s meaning, Adam Klopp, with a grin, states, “(I’ll Always) is an anti-love song—a sardonic self-indictment of a failing lover.”

Over the past four years, Choir Boy have continued making surrealist music videos, sharing updates on social media, and playing live across North America and Europe. Yet, when measured against the release of their last album, the lack of new music has felt like an eternity for some in their dedicated fanbase. “Tell everyone the delays are my fault.” Laughter. “Blame everything on me,” Klopp asserts. Following the end of their run with Provoker last year.

Jorge Elbrecht, a fixture of Los Angeles’s underground music community, was asked to produce the new single, becoming the final piece of the puzzle. Together they immediately clicked into a harmonious workflow and, “a shared sense of humor about the bleakness… In (the song’s) previous incarnation, before we were working with Jorge, there was something missing.” While producing “I’ll Always”, Elbrecht contributed new sounds and arrangements, and encouraged the band to explore, diving deeper into the depths.
