Jane Remover has announced her forthcoming album, Census Designated, out October 20th via deadAir. Alongside the announcement Jane Remover shares lead single “Lips.”

Initial ideas for Census Designated were written and recorded just weeks after Frailty’s release, but took 18 months to perfect. During her first trip across America, Jane collected ambience and experience that texturized the embryo of Census Designated. Jane says that a central inspiration for the new music came from an extremely dangerous drive in blizzard conditions, which led her to late night respite in John Day, Oregon. She states: “It was kind of like a reality check. I am painfully self aware, and it leads me to ruin like 90% of the experiences and memories I make. So I guess going through a near death experience made me want to stop ruining things for myself.”

The album was made in both studios and at home–with recordings from Studio North (Kensington in Philadelphia) mixes from Kayla Reagan, and mastered by Hector Vega. A photo of Jane standing bareback while facing away towards the high plains serves appropriately as the cover art for an album where she manages to simultaneously divulge her most confessional moments yet, and captivate with unanswerable questions.

Jane Remover has strived for autonomy as much as possible. The nineteen-year-old songwriter is an omnivorous listener that produces everything herself. Her debut album Frailty was written amidst the purgatorial summer after graduating high school. The lyrics on Frailty are a wayward coming-of-age diary of a queer teenager stuck in the suburbs of a confusing, socio-politically turbulent America. Her words sting, but are shrouded in meticulous production; a sui generis vein of DIY rock. Simultaneously, it’s steeped in the lo-bit, nostalgic synths that soundtrack a final glimpse of younger memories.
