Jane Inc. has announced a new album, A RUPTURE A CANYON A BIRTH, which comes out October 17 via Telephone Explosion. The follow-up to 2022’s impressive Faster Than I Can Make is led by the invigorating new single ‘Elastic’. Check out the video for it below.
In April 2023, a semi-truck slammed into the broken-down tour van holding Carlyn Bezic and Jane Inc.’s five other musicians. Upon returning home from that tour, Bezic broke off her relationship of nearly a decade, and, exactly a year and a day after the crash, was diagnosed with stage one cancer on her left vocal cord. She then underwent two surgeries that left her voice intact, but the possibility of regrowth was still significant. She opens the lead single with the lines, “I wanna get closer to death/ Feel it shatter against my head.”
‘Elastic’ was “was inspired by performing in the aftermath of the car accident,” Bezic explained. “The experience unlocked something for me, and I felt I could perform with more freedom and abandon than ever before. Here I imagine the audience as a lover, and under their gaze, life is filled with pure Dionysian possibility: an unrolling and malleable series of nows.”
About the accompanying visual, she added: “They say a song is a fixed number of minutes and seconds but it never feels that way. Had to make this video to prove it.”
