Beabadoobee has shared another piece of her upcoming album ‘Pylon’, a tribute to her love of emo, and it delves deeper into the roots of the genre.

The track is called ‘Switchblade’ and is a glitching, shifting, machine-like piece of slow-burning melody, full of changes of pace and tempo. There are glimmers of noodly riffs hiding below the surface, as there are The Postal Service-esque quips and churns, all serving as a curious amalgamation of the passion and purpose that has inspired this era.

The album ‘Pylon’ will be released on on September 18 via Dirty Hit and Interscope Records. It serves as the follow-up to their 2024 record ‘This Is How Tomorrow Moves’.

The album is set to see Beabadoobee expressing their affection and adoration for emo and alternative music, which is where the guests that bolster it come in. You have Hayley Williams, Turnstile’s Brendan Yates, Deftones’ Chino Moreno, Pinegrove’s Evan Stephens Hall and Title Fight’s Shane Moran all offering up their talents, as well as The 1975’s Matty Healy and George Daniels helping out on production on ‘Write Me a Letter’.

Here is ‘Sun Has Set’:
