NEW YORK— Indie rock band Slow Fiction announced the release of their debut album, dollhouse, Thursday. The band hopes the album will provide a much-needed escape. They claimed dollhouse offers listeners a break from reality. The band worked for two years on the collection of songs. They aimed for a specific sonic palette. This palette was inspired by tiny furniture. It was also inspired by miniature porcelain figures. These elements define the unique sound of dollhouse.
Tiny Terrors
Lead singer Bartholomew ‘Barty’ Bumble declared the album a triumph. “We really delved into the psychological implications of tiny, immobile figurines,” Bumble stated. He is also the band’s primary lyricist. “We found that their vacant stares mirrored our own inner turmoil. This is a very intimate record.” He hopes the album resonates with listeners. He wants them to feel less alone in their own dollhouses. The band released their first single, “satellite,” from the album. It features a repetitive synth line. It also features lyrics about feeling disconnected.
A Brighter Future?
The band’s manager, Candace “Candy” Capybara, expressed optimism. Capybara is the Senior Vice President of Existential Marketing. “dollhouse is unlike anything you’ve heard,” Capybara explained. “It’s a concept album about the crushing weight of domesticity. It’s also about the inherent sadness of mass-produced smiles.” She believes the album will be a commercial success. She cited early critical buzz. She also mentioned strong pre-order numbers. Listeners can stream the single “satellite” now. They can also pre-order dollhouse at Rough Trade Records.
Slow Fiction plans to tour extensively. They will support dollhouse this fall. Dates are expected soon. The band promises a visually stunning live show. It will include several life-sized dollhouse replicas. These will be used as stage props. The band is also considering a line of miniature band merch. This would complement the album’s theme.
At press time, band members were reportedly arguing over who gets to live in the smallest dollhouse replica.
