Blondshell Signs With Partisan for Self-Titled Debut Album
When we caught up with Sabrina Teitelbaum last August, she had just released her third single as Blondshell ahead of a North American tour. Now with a full album complete, Blondshell has inked with Partisan Records for its self-titled debut, which will be released on April 7.
Another new song, “Joiner,” arrives today (Jan. 24), continuing the themes of sex and sexuality heard on prior singles “Kiss City,” “Sepsis,” and “Veronica Mars.”
More from Spin:
“I was listening to a lot of Britpop when I wrote this song,” Teitelbaum says of “Joiner.” “A lot of those bands (The Verve, Pulp, Suede, Blur etc.) channeled dark subject matter, drugs, and all this dirty stuff, but with a fun acoustic guitar under it. I was listening to The Replacements, too. That’s what this song was inspired by sonically. I wanted it to feel like you’re watching HBO, where even though it’s heavy, it’s still a good time.”
Watch the video for “Joiner,” which was directed by Alex Thurmond, below. Blondshell is currently on tour in North America opening for Suki Waterhouse.
