Having escaped from planet Devours, the Vancouver synthpop songwriter has ushered in a new era with a new single called "The Widow."

The song is a lushly delicate synth ballad about a doomed romance, containing sweetly crooned declarations of falling in (and out of) love against the backdrop of visits from Los Angeles and trips to the Vancouver Hilton.

Hear it below. The artwork above reveals Devours' new look, featuring a tinfoil facemask.

Earlier this year, Devours released an album through his ambient alias, the Golden Age of Wrestling. He contributed to Exclaim!'s list of Canadian artists picking their favourite album of 2022.
