Spirit of the Beehive are back with their fifth album. YOU'LL HAVE TO LOSE SOMETHING is coming August 23 via Saddle Creek, and the band will support the record with a North American tour this fall.
Building on last year's i'm so lucky EP, the album doesn't dwell on the breakup of members Zack Schwartz and Rivka Ravede as much as its predecessor, but explores the unease that comes with untangling. It's led by the single "LET THE VIRGIN DRIVE."
"It's about unrequited love and making up a situation or whole life in your head," Schwartz said of the track in a press release. "The other person finally 'sees you' and your 'problems are solved,' but they aren't, really."
Spirit of the Beehive will stop in Montreal and Toronto on September 25 and 26 respectively, before heading to Vancouver on October 4. Check out the tour dates, the music video for "LET THE VIRGIN DRIVE" and the tracklist for YOU'LL HAVE TO LOSE SOMETHING below.
