Indigo De Souza has announced a new album, Precipice, which arrives on July 25 via Loma Vista. The singer-songwriter worked on the follow-up to 2023’s All of This Will End with Elliott Kozel, who’s worked with the likes of SZA, Yves Tumor, and FINNEAS. Check out a video for the lead single ‘Heartthrob’ below, and scroll down for the album cover and tracklist.

A press release talks about De Souza “leaping forward” in a spiritual sense: “taking control of difficult memories and charged emotions via pop bombast and diaristic clarity, and finding a stronger self.” But ‘Heartthrob’, which is shoegazey and soaring, suggests a kind of sonic leap, too. “I wrote ‘Heartthrob’ as a way to help process something that is often hard to talk about—the harmful ways I’ve been taken advantage of in my physical memory,” De Souza explained. “‘Heartthrob’ is about harnessing anger, and turning it into something powerful and embodied. It’s about taking back my body and my experience. It’s a big fuck you to the abusers of the world. A sarcastic, angry cry for all bodies that have ever been touched in harmful ways.”

“Life feels like always being on the edge of something without knowing what that something is,” De Souza added. “Music gives me ways to harness that feeling. Ways to push forward in new directions.”
