XO SKELETON is the supple, steady, uncanny new album by La Force: a mixture of haunted pop and hot-blooded R&B that glistens at the meeting-point between life, death, and love. The album, co-produced by La Force and Warren Spicer (Plants and Animals), will be available everywhere in digital and LP format on September 29 via Remote Control Records.
Available as of today is the first single and opening track ‘condition of us’, the portrait of adoration, a love-affair that’s long-term, messy, fervent and profound. The track was the product of “Song A Day,” an invitation-only songwriters’ circle organised by producer/engineer Phil Weinrobe (Tomberlin, Kings of Convenience, Deerhoof) during the depths of COVID. Across three, 10-day sessions, Engle created a new song every 24 hours, holding herself accountable alongside friends and luminaries like Leslie Feist, Maggie Rogers, Beck, and Big Thief’s Buck Meek. She wrote ‘condition of us’ alone on GarageBand, tilting like a weathervane in her surroundings.
