Pacific Northwest post-punks Datura’s shares the third song from its forthcoming new album. Songs from a Dark House (Sell the Heart/Bat-Cave Productions/Engineer Records) is set to be released on Friday, April 18.

Datura formed in 2017. After recording and releasing their first two EPs independently, they released their first LP Arcano Chemical on Northern California’s Sell the Heart Records in 2022. Now, with their sophomore LP, Songs from a Dark House, also released on Sell the Heart Records and in collaboration with Poland’s Bat-Cave Productions and the UK’s Engineer Records, Datura has hit their stride with their strongest effort yet.

Songs from a Dark House is a driving collection of catchy hits. The record shines a light on the feelings of isolation and confusion one often experiences living in the modern world and touches on themes ranging from burnout, love, and loss, to addiction and war. Consider Songs from a Dark House the danceable darkwave soundtrack of your next panic attack.
