Holly Humberstone announces debut album 'Paint My Bedroom Black'

Having already cemented herself as one of the more exciting names on the rise these last few years, Holly Humberstone has now announced her plan for her long-awaited debut album, arriving later this year.

The new full-length 'Paint My Bedroom Black' is being previewed by the two new singles 'Antichrist' and 'Room Service', the former of which arrives with a stunning new video, and is set to be released on the 13th October via Polydor / Darkroom / Geffen.

Speaking about the new offerings, she said, "Antichrist is about a break up I went through a couple of years ago. I genuinely cared about this person and wanted so badly to make it work, but I knew something wasn’t right and my heart wasn’t in it. I knew that I was inevitably going to have to hurt the person who I wanted so much to love. At the time I wrote the song, I remember feeling like I was constantly letting those around me down. Like I was falling short of being there for anyone I cared about. I basically felt like the worst person in the world; like the Antichrist. I really felt that I was toxic to be around, and the guilt and self-loathing that came with that manifested itself in this song.

"I wrote Room Service a little while ago when I’d just started touring full time. I was finding myself constantly stressed out and although I was having fun, I was really missing home and my friends. I felt like I was watching them live out their lives from a phone screen, like I was being left behind. There was this swelling feeling that I was growing apart from that world that I was missing so badly, and I just didn’t want to be forgotten. AlI I wanted to do was to get a hotel room with my best friend, lock the world out and do stupid stuff like order room service. To me, this song is a simple love song to the people I care about the most, and the seemingly basic experiences you share together that can so often be taken for granted. The busier I get, the more I treasure the precious time I get with my friends and family; the more I value them in my life."
