Blood Lemon have their new EP, Petite Deaths, will drop January 17, 2025, via Boise, Idaho label Moon Ruins. Ahead of the album’s arrival, the trio have shared lead single and video, “Perfect Too.” The track offers a scathing critique of contemporary culture’s tendency to sell perfectionism without any promise of moral salvation set atop searing lead guitars and pulsing rhythms. Bassist/vocalist (and current Built to Spill member) Melanie Radford also shares, “We performed this song live on our Winter tour with Built to Spill a couple years ago and it became an instant favorite. It has a nice build and performing it live has been incredibly satisfying.”

The video, created with the help of director Grant Osman, animator James W.A.R. Lloyd, and Boise experimental dance group Corevette Collective, a hybrid of live action and animation about an all-controlling entity molding us through our phones, and the desperate attempts to free ourselves from its technocratic grasp.

Recorded at the storied Rancho De La Luna studio in Joshua Tree with esteemed producer Dave Catching (Desert Sessions, Queens of the Stone Age, earthlings?). Beyond the desert’s influence, Petite Deaths also tells a story of the intimate journey of creation, both musical and personal: the band’s drummer/percussionist Lindsey Lloyd learned she would be expecting the birth of her first daughter, Zenith, once recording was wrapped.
