Hippo Campus have announced a new album, ‘LP3’, set for release on 4th February 2022.
The news comes alongside a lead single ‘Boys’, and follows on from their recent ‘Good Dog, Bad Dream’ EP.
Frontman Jake Luppen explains about the track: “It was about this party I went to where I had all these crazy experiences and then woke up feeling like, “I need to change my life right now,” the next day I went to New York and came back, hung out with our new manager, and felt slightly better. It's like that feeling when you're drunk and then you wake up hungover and you hate yourself.
It’s also about exploring sexuality, and the elusiveness of it. I’ve always felt that sexual preference is something that exists beyond the binary. At different points in your life you feel different ways, and that’s ok. In this track we’re kind of comparing that journey to our first trips to NY. It’s this huge place that is always moving past us while we’re trying to grab a hold of it.”
