Multi-Platinum alt-pop visionary\u00a0BENEE<\/b> returns with a new track titled Underwater\u00a0<\/em>off of her forthcoming sophomore album,\u00a0Ur An Angel I\u2019m Just Particles<\/i><\/b>, out\u00a0November 7th<\/b>\u00a0on\u00a0Republic Records<\/b>. <\/p>\n Here is the blurb with more:<\/p>\n On Underwater<\/em>, BENEE<\/strong> juxtaposes airy and experimental hyper-pop-inspired beats with honest admissions about the overwhelming feelings of anxiety as she candidly sings, \u201cMy head is underwater, a puddle full of my tears. I could make a river, wouldn\u2019t even matter.\u201d\u00a0<\/i>BENEE shares,\u00a0\u201cI wrote \u2018Underwater\u2019 about that disconnect between how effortless you seem and how heavy you really feel. I think a lot of people will recognise themselves in that.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n Underwater<\/em> is the latest release off of the New Zealand-born, Los Angeles-based artist\u2019s long-awaited sophomore album out next month, and it follows her previously released singles \u201cCinnamon<\/b><\/a>,\u201d \u201cOff The Rails<\/b><\/a>,\u201d \u201cAnimal<\/b><\/a>,\u201d and \u201cSad Boiii<\/b><\/a>.\u201d Written and recorded over the span of the past three years,\u00a0Ur An Angel I\u2019m Just Particles<\/strong>\u00a0<\/i>features BENEE\u2019s signature blend of creative storytelling with unique and vulnerable lyricism set to genre-bending sounds and production. The songs on the album follow BENEE\u2019s journey of making sense of the world through music, as she absorbs the chaos and confusion of everyday life and molds it into addictive alternative pop.<\/p>\n She shares,\u00a0\u201cUr An Angel I\u2019m Just Particles<\/strong> is a deep dive into existential dread, where love, identity, and meaning slip through your fingers like sand. Each song grapples with the weight of existence. Feeling too small in a world too big, questioning whether connection is real or just another fleeting illusion.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n She continues,\u00a0\u201cThere\u2019s a restless urgency here, a longing to escape yet nowhere to run, as the lines blur between self-destruction and survival, euphoria and emptiness. The songs unravel like diary entries, tracing the cycles of obsession, heartbreak, and fleeting ecstasy, all while wrestling with our inner demons and the fear of disappearing into the noise. It\u2019s an album for the sleepless, the over-thinkers, those staring into the void and wondering if it\u2019s staring back.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n To celebrate the album release, BENEE will perform an intimate headline show at\u00a0Los Angeles\u2019 The Masonic Lodge at Hollywood Forever<\/b>\u00a0on\u00a0November 7th<\/b>, debuting new songs from the album for her fans for the very first time.
