The Ophelias Release New Song ‘Salome’


The Ophelias have unveiled a new song from their Julien Baker-produced fourth album, Spring Grove. The propulsive, invigorating ‘Salome’ follows lead single ‘Cumulonimbus’. Check it out below.

“‘Salome’ loosely follows the biblical story of (you guessed it) Salome, who danced for King Herod at his birthday celebration and was told she could ask for anything in return,” bandleader Spencer Peppet explained. “She asked for the head of John the Baptist. While I personally have never facilitated someone’s beheading, I find the story and the way it has resonated with playwrights, filmmakers, and artists fascinating — a real depiction of ‘female biblical rage,’ as the TikTok girlies would say. The video is our campy camcorder take on that.”

Spring Grove comes out April 4 via Get Better Records.
