MONTREAL— Indie rock band knitting released their new single “Here Comes” Tuesday. The song is the second offering from their upcoming album, Souvenir. Fans and critics alike are still trying to unravel its meaning. Knitting previously garnered attention as a Stereogum Band To Watch. Their debut album, Some Kind Of Heaven, received moderate acclaim. This new track, “Here Comes,” has generated significant buzz. However, the buzz seems to center on the band’s name. Many listeners expected a song about the craft of knitting. Instead, they found a typical indie rock anthem. The band denied any intentional deception. “We just like the sound of the word,” said lead singer Brenda McAllister. She is the Self-Appointed Minister of Yarn Aesthetics. “It’s cozy. It’s tactile.”
Public Puzzlement Persists
Social media platforms buzzed with confusion. “I thought this was going to be about knitting patterns,” tweeted user @CraftyCath. She is the Self-Proclaimed Queen of Crochet. “Now I’m just confused and a little disappointed.” Another fan asked if the band would incorporate actual yarn into their live shows. “Maybe we will,” McAllister mused. “We’re exploring some live looping with actual wool.” The band hopes the public will embrace their sound. They want listeners to enjoy the music regardless of expectations. The band stated that the name knitting is not a metaphor. It is simply the band’s chosen moniker.
Souvenir Promises More of the Same
The upcoming album, Souvenir, is slated for release next month. “Here Comes” is the latest single following “I Want To Remember Everything.” Knitting promises more of their signature sound on the new record. They assured fans that the album would feature intricate melodies. It would also showcase introspective lyrics. The band is currently on tour. They are playing small venues across North America. Knitting is eager to share their new material. They hope audiences will connect with their artistic vision. The band is not worried about the confusion. They believe their music will speak for itself. Even if it doesn’t involve actual knitting. For more on the band’s musical journey, visit Stereogum.
At press time, McAllister was reportedly seen browsing a local craft store. She was allegedly looking for inspiration. Or perhaps just some new needles.
