We just posted our list of the best songs of June, and ‘Nettles’, the first single from Ethel Cain‘s next album, Willoughby Tucker, I’ll Always Love You, is on it. It just so happens that today, Cain has released the second single from the Preacher’s Daughter follow-up. ‘Fuck Me Eyes’ is just as striking but strays from that hazy, sprawling take on Americana, laced instead with gorgeous synths and gauzy guitars that also speak to a shift in narrative perspective. Check it out below.

“Continuing in the theme of high school anxieties, ‘Fuck Me Eyes’ (on top of being an homage to one of my favorite pop songs of all time, ‘Bette Davis Eyes’) is meant to be an ode to the girls who are perfect and have everything, yet carry the reputation of town slut,” Hayden Anhedönia explained in a press release. “The beautiful blonde who is just lonely and wants to be loved, that all the adults condemn to each other, who ultimately is the girl everyone simultaneously can’t stand and wants to be. I wrote the beginning of this song five years ago, making it the oldest demo for the record. As the story became more fleshed out, I realized it had a more relevant place on the album than I originally thought. This song represents Ethel’s complicated feelings for the girl she’s convinced has caught her crush’s eye, as well as her 16-year-old thoughts on the matter.”

Willoughby Tucker, I’ll Always Love You is set for release on August 8. Earlier this year, Cain put out Perverts, a 90-minute experimental project that was billed as an EP.
