Some melodies never leave, they just wait in the margin. Alt-rock icons The Lemonheads return with their first album of all-new original material in nearly twenty years Love Chant. The lead single In The Margin is classic Lemonheads: hook-laced, half-grinning heartbreak that hits like a soft wrecking ball. Recorded in São Paulo with producer Apollo Nove and layered with contributions from legends and longtime collaborators alike, "Love Chant" spans rock grit, psych-folk haze, and even loose-limbed country charm. As Evan Dando puts it:

I wanted to have a riffy song, so I wrote riffs all over it.

Arriving October 24 via Fire Records, the album feels like a mixtape from a friend who knows your flaws and still sings with you. "Love Chant" captures the bittersweet brilliance that made Evan Dando’s songwriting so defining, from the searing guitars on Deep End to the melodic depth of Roky and Togetherness. Featuring J Mascis, Juliana Hatfield, John Felice, Nick Saloman, and co-written with Tom Morgan, this lineup reads like a love letter to indie rock history.
