Her new single, \u201cStay in Your Lane,\u201d is her first vocal release since 2021\u2019s <i>Things Take Time, Take Time<\/i>, considering her most recent project was the instrumental record <i>End of the Day<\/i> (2023). Where those projects leaned inward, \u201cStay in Your Lane\u201d kicks the door down with the same bite and swagger that first made her a generational voice in rock music more than a decade ago.<\/p>\n<div id=\"revcontent-hidden\">\n<p>The track opens on a wiry riff and a rhythm section that sounds ready to combust. \u201cGotta get this off my chest,\u201d Barnett drawls before landing on the song\u2019s title phrase, part confession and part reprimand. \u201cThis never would\u2019ve happened if I stayed in my lane, stayed the same way.\u201d The result is a tightly wound reminder of her knack for turning unease into propulsion, and introspection into something loud enough to shake loose. And the accompanying music video, directed by filmmaker Alex Ross Perry (<i>Pavements<\/i>), brings that tension to life through surreal body horror: blood, bandages, and a kind of surgical absurdity that\u2019s hard to watch but harder to look away from. Fitting, perhaps, given that Perry <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pastemagazine.com\/movies\/horror-movies\/v-h-s-halloween-review-found-footage-shudder-filmmakers-segments\">also just directed a segment<\/a> in Shudder\u2019s long-running series of <i>V\/H\/S<\/i> horror anthologies.<\/p>\n<p>After a run of small, secretive sets at Levon Helm Studios and in Joshua Tree, Barnett will perform \u201cStay in Your Lane\u201d on <i>The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon<\/i> on Oct. 22. Whether it\u2019s the start of a new chapter or just a standalone release, it\u2019s a fierce reminder of why Barnett remains one of the most vital voices in modern guitar rock\u2014restless, self-aware, and still finding new ways to hit the nerve.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Courtney Barnett - Stay In Your Lane (Official Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IP9TaFDe7qk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.pastemagazine.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is a great day for anyone who, like me, spent their formative years furiously scribbling \u201cPedestrian at Best\u201d lyrics in the margins of composition notebooks\u2014because after four long years, Courtney Barnett is back, voice and all.
