“Fever of the Mind” by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, the project of Alec Ounsworth have announced the release of their LP Burned, will drop on January 29, 2027, via the CYHSY label in association with Secretly Distribution.
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah’s seventh studio album and first new LP in six years, Burned is accompanied by the LP’S lead single, “Fever of the Mind.” Built on layers of synth riffs, the track surges upwards almost as a rejoinder to its lyrics, in which Ounsworth grapples with recurring bouts of depression, alienation, and what we inherit from those who came before us.
“This was the song that sort of thematically and sonically guided the rest of the album,” says Alec Ounsworth. “Maybe the most important thing for me is to establish the first and then shape the other songs around it.”
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah will tour behind Burned, starting on February 7 in Istanbul, Turkey, followed by dates in Switzerland, France, Germany, Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, and the United Kingdom. North American headline shows will then get underway April 5 at Washington, DC’s The Atlantis, with dates in Atlanta, Austin, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Minneapolis, Chicago, New York, and others before a hometown finale at Philadelphia, PA’s Underground Arts on May 15.
Burned, arrives six years after the release of 2021’s New Fragility. Ounsworth had weathered a storm in recent years, from the dissolution of a relationship to the loss of his mother, his uncle, and a close friend in quick succession. Yet as much as his new songs emerged from grief and confusion and heartbreak, Ounsworth didn’t want to dwell there – those were only the jumping-off points. Once he began writing again, new material arrived in a burst: 10 songs that catalog the journey from loss to renewed hope.
