Today, The Weather Station, the project of Toronto-based Tamara Lindeman, released the music video for “Neon Signs.”
This track serves as the lead single from the upcoming album Humanhood, set to drop on January 17, 2025, via Fat Possum Records (outside of Canada) and Next Door Records (Canada).
“Neon Signs” is a striking five-minute pop rock piece, infused with dramatic intensity that highlights Lindeman’s masterful songwriting. Her sharp lyrics and emotionally rich vocal delivery weave through a dynamic instrumental backdrop, offering listeners a glimpse of the evolving sound she’s bringing with Humanhood. This single blends melancholic introspection with powerful musical swells, showcasing Tamara’s knack for fusing thought-provoking narratives with gripping melodies.
About the track by Tamara:
“I wrote ‘Neon Signs’ at a moment of feeling confused, upside down, at that moment when even desire falls away, and dissociation cuts you loose from a story that while wrong, still held things together,” Lindeman explains.
“The song came with multiple strands entwined; the way that something that is not true seems to have more energetic intensity than something that is, the confusion of being bombarded with advertising at a moment of climate emergency, the confusion of relationships where coercion is wrapped in the language of love.
Ultimately though, isn’t it all the same feeling?” The “Neon Signs” video, directed by Lindeman, is a journey through different sets of eyes, perpetually shifting perspectives between people and objects.
