beabadoobee channels unsaid feelings into a louder fourth album, with an all-star guest list and an October stop at the Kia Forum. Some things are easier to say with a distorted guitar behind you. On Pylon, beabadoobee turns the conversations she never had into 14 songs drawing from grunge, Midwest emo and ’90s radio rock. Out Sept. 18 through Dirty Hit/Interscope Records, her fourth album takes a louder, more direct approach to the anxieties of her mid-20s.
The title comes from the electricity towers Beatrice Laus watched pass while touring—structures that reminded her of connections back home during stretches of isolation. That tension between distance and connection runs through the follow-up to her UK No. 1 album, This Is How Tomorrow Moves.
“A lot of the songs on this record are things I wish I could have said to someone,” Laus says.
Lead single “Sun Has Set,” available now, gets straight to the resentment. Its accompanying first-person video comes from her partner and longtime visual collaborator Jake Erland.
There’s good company in the noise. Hayley Williams joins “Nothing to Prove,” a song about reclaiming power from fair-weather friends, while Turnstile’s Brendan Yates appears on “Powerlines.” Other contributors include Deftones’ Chino Moreno, Pinegrove’s Evan Stephens Hall and Title Fight’s Shane Moran. The 1975’s Matty Healy and George Daniel handle production on “Write Me a Letter.”
Next comes a bigger room. Her first arena tour, the Powerlines Tour, begins Oct. 1 and reaches the Kia Forum on Oct. 21, with Wisp supporting. For Los Angeles fans, that leaves about a month to learn the words before singing them back. Tour dates.
