Weyes Blood’s “In Holy Flux Tour,” a headlining international touring run for the Spring of 2023 in support of And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow, has also been announced. “My heart is a glow stick that’s been cracked, lighting up my chest in an explosion of earnestness.” “We’re in a fully functional shit show,” Mering says.

Where Titanic was an observation of doom to come, And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow is about being in the thick of it: a search for an escape hatch to liberate us from algorithms and ideological chaos (spoiler alert: the next one will be about “ hope”). The album is her follow-up to the acclaimed Titanic Rising, the first album of three in a special trilogy.

And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow was mixed by Kenny Gilmore at 101 Studio, and mastered by Emily Lazar and Chris Allgood at The Lodge, and features guest appearances from Meg Duffy, Daniel Lopatin, and Lattimore. The album’s ten tracks were written by Weyes Blood’s Natalie Mering, with album production from Mering along with Jonathan Rado on all songs except for “A Given Thing,” produced by Mering and Rodaidh McDonald. The astonishing new Weyes Blood full-length And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow will be available on Friday, November 18th, 2022. As Mering repeats the title refrain, the song swells with orchestral strings and effervescent harp from Mary Lattimore (“Best New Track”).” She uses that instrument to stirring effect on ‘It’s Not Just Me, It’s Everybody’…” Pitchfork offers this, “Discovering the shared ache of seclusion, she yearns for pain and isolation to dissolve, settling on a poignant solution: mercy. Released earlier this month, “It’s Not Just Me, It’s Everybody” saw praise from the likes of New York Times, who say, “Natalie Mering’s soft, clarion voice sounds like a delayed transmission from 1970s AM radio, blending the searching tone of Court and Spark-era Joni Mitchell with the celestial calm of Karen Carpenter. Singing! Dancing! Technological Cannibalism! Even More Dancing! The “It’s Not Just Me, It’s Everybody” video was directed by filmmaker Charlotte Ercoli (Weyes Blood’s “Seven Words”). The Anchors Aweigh-meets- The Omega Man-inspired, live-action/animated visual pairs Weyes Blood’s Natalie Mering as “the new kid” alongside her co-star, a formerly celebrated and now disgruntled cell phone.

Watch Weyes Blood get her big break (at the end of the world) in the deranged official music video for “It’s Not Just Me, It’s Everybody,” the acclaimed new single and opening track from And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow, her forthcoming album.
