Irish rockers Just Mustard have announced their third album, WE WERE JUST HERE, out on October 24th via Partisan. The quintet have also shared the new album’s title track.
WE WERE JUST HERE follows Just Mustard’s 2022 effort Heart Under, which featured a noisier, nervier sound from the shoegaze-adjacent group. For their new project, the band is intent to let the light in a bit more. “I was trying to write more optimistically, and feeling like a fraud sometimes,” vocalist Katie Ball said in a press release. “I was trying to put myself in places of physical joy to try and get that euphoric feeling,”
Following the prior single “POLLYANNA,” the band has revealed WE WERE JUST HERE’s title track. With throttling, pulsating synths driving the track, “WE WERE JUST HERE” takes Just Mustard’s minimalist noise rock into a dreamier, goth-like arena. Ball’s gentle vocals contrast with the song’s mammoth low-end, but they blend particular well with the shimmering synths that peak through the noise. Stream the new single below.
Just Mustard will support WE WERE JUST HERE with a brief stretch of tour dates this fall; they’ll head to the US for shows in Boston and New York in September. Get tickets to see Just Mustard here.
