Teenage Halloween have released their anticipated sophomore studio album Till You Return today via Don Giovanni Records. The exuberant LP is a raw and profound examination on being a young queer person in contemporary America. Personal topics of loss, grief, struggle and mental instability are delivered alongside accounts of often-spoiled attempts at personal growth and are laid bare throughout this album.
As singer / guitarist Luk Henderiks describes it: “Till You Return is a record that comes to terms with the cruel realities of this world and the realization that the only path to happiness is the one that you create for yourself.”
The album is available to order via Don Giovanni, and streaming across all platforms now.
Till You Return is accompanied by the release of a visual for the album-track “Melodrama“. This video offers a behind-the-scenes peek of the band on an east coast tour earlier this year and underlines the song’s commitment to be present in the moment, to accept care, and give love to those around you.
The band has announced an extensive tour in support of the album, which kicks off tonight in Philadelphia. Tickets are available at teenagehalloween.com.
