Belly

"Stars Align"

BY Sarah MurphyPublished Mar 29, 2018

Belly will release their first album in 23 years later this spring, but before Dove arrives in its entirety, the '90s alt-rockers have unveiled another new track.
 
"Stars Align" follows the previously shared album cut "Shiny One," and features frontwoman Tanya Donelly warning superheroes to be a bit more selective about who they choose to save.
 
"'Stars Align' was a dark horse that we kept coming back to in the writing stage of the album, reinventing and restructuring it," Donelly said in a press release. "It was nearly left behind a couple of times, but we knew we could get this one to a good place if we kept at it, and it finally came together in the 11th hour before recording. This has been one of my favourites, even in its awkward stages, since Tom sent us his first version of it. (The use of Superman as a trope is a little threadbare at this point, but I mean every word)."
 
Listen to the new tune down below.
 
Dove is due out May 4, and it's currently available for pre-order here.
