Chastity Belt announce new album 'Live Laugh Love'

Following on from the release of their much-loved self-titled LP in 2019, Chastity Belt have now announced their plans for a new studio album, arriving early next year.

The new full-length 'Live Laugh Love' is being previewed by the new lead single 'Hollow', which comes accompanied by a stunning Nick Shively-directed video, and is set to be released on the 29th March via their new home on Suicide Squeeze Records.

Speaking about the new offering, the band's Lydia Lund said, "Generally when we set about coming up with an idea for a music video as a band, we try to think of something ridiculous we’d like to do that we would never otherwise fund ourselves (ie. Segway adventure, medieval horseback riding). In each shot we were performing in order to make our friends in the room laugh, taking each bit to the next level, seeking joy in late capitalism."

On the video, director Nick Shively added, "We had a TikTok mood board floating around and I went on some deep dives that did irreparable damage to my For You page. The shoot itself was so fun and light. We all just kinda goofed around in an extremely hot and sterile house this last summer. I was laughing the whole time and I wound up shooting something like 4 and half hours of “content.” I also remember the neighbors having a lot of chickens roaming their yard, and we got a full refund on all the ring lights."
