In the midst of some incredibly exciting live shows (supporting Lorde and Grizzly Bear), Chanel Beads shares the spookily titled 'The Coward Forgets His Nightmare'. The first new music since his critically-acclaimed debut album Your Day Will Come is expectedly warped and shiny. Grounded by a thudding kick sound, glistening guitars seem to crystallise in a way that only Chanel Beads knows how to achieve. Leaning in to its title's dreaminess, there's something dark and uncanny lurking beneath the sweeter elements of the composition as songwriter Shane Lavers cryptically relays: "I think I accidentally cursed myself at some point and I don’t know if I should ignore it or confront it. Written and recorded quickly, vaping too much exploring bad health. Brought to life with Maya and Zach and stitched up with Mr. Carlson. Dedicated to the love we are given." Watch and listen to ' The Coward Forgets His Nightmare' here now. -Holly Mullineaux
