Cage the Elephant are in a constant state of motion on their new single “Metaverse,” set to appear on their forthcoming studio album Neon Pill, out May 17.
“It’s a natural progression/No need for affection/Just a perfect deflection/When you’ve got no perspective,” frontman Matthew Shultz sings on the chorus. “Every day spent far from my family/Double check checked out I’m half asleep/What the hell, oh well, that’s life/What the hell, I keep running and running/Every day that dream comes back to me/Falling out further, far from my family/What the hell, oh well, that’s life/What the hell, I keep running and running.”
“Metaverse” marks the fourth single to be released from Neon Pill, following “Good Time,” “Out Loud” and “Neon Pill.” In a recent statement, Shultz described the album as “The first record where we were consistently uninfluenced, and I mean that in a positive way.”
The album was created with producer John Hill, who helmed the Kentucky band’s last studio album, Social Cues (2019), in sessions that took place across El Paso, New York City, Nashville, and Los Angeles.
He added: “Everything is undoubtedly expressed through having settled into finding our own voice. We’ve always drawn inspiration from artists we love, and at times we’ve even emulated some of them to a certain degree. With this album, having gone through so much, life had almost forced us into becoming more and more comfortable with ourselves. We weren’t reaching for much outside of the pure experience of self expression, and simultaneously not necessarily settling either. We just found a uniqueness in simply existing.”
Cage the Elephant will take Neon Pill on the road in just a few weeks as their North American tour kicks off on June 20 in Salt Lake City.
