Music, News

Over a decade after their 2009 debut album II, Desire—the project fronted by Megan Louise—have announced their second album. It’s called Escape, and it arrives this summer via Italians Do It Better. The album was produced by Johnny Jewel. Check out the tracklist in the Instagram post below. Check out the Johnny Jewel-directed video for the title track below.

“Megan Louise sings tales of love & lust cloaked in an analog sheen,” Italians Do It Better’s album description reads. “Shrouded in a cinematic haze. Throbbing with violent rhythm. Fresh Blood for the new you.”

Desire recently toured with Chromatics, who released the new album Closer to Grey last year. Revisit Pitchfork’s 2015 feature “Into the Black: Johnny Jewel’s Dark Disco Empire.”
