Bicycle Inn just shared a new single, their first new music since the release of Baldr the Beautiful is Dead, is Dead, which came out in 2022.
The new song is called "Longsword (4th Place)" and is the first recording with new members Dylan Ilkowitz (guitar/auxiliary vocals), and Gilmar Perez (lead guitar). It's also their first recording as a 5-piece. The song also features Ryan O’Rourke (Innerlove.)
“'Longsword' is about the struggle of mundanity; doing just enough, scraping by and ‘making the cut.’ It embodies the moment of realization in which it is no longer sustainable to keep doing what you are doing, because it is actively disintegrating you. You have become this ‘Saint of the Rut;’ a perfect representation of stagnancy,” the band says in a press release.
