King Princess’ new album Girl Violence is out today (September 12). The album is light on collaborations, but there is one credited feature: Joe Talbot of Idles. He joins in on “Say What You Will,” an ethereal two-minute number.
In a new interview with The Guardian, Straus spoke about how her role in the show Nine Perfect Strangers informed the new album, saying:
“I took so much from the acting experience and brought it back into making my record; it taught me to be silly and less precious. You have to relinquish so much control when you’re acting: you do your takes, some are sh*t, some are not. But at the end of the day, you’re not constructing the show, you don’t have the control. And I think a lot of my issues around music were about feeling this sense of control over myself.”
