Snail Mail’s new LP Ricochet is set to arrive this Friday, and ahead of its release, Lindsey Jordan and her band shared another new single called “Tractor Beam” last night on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. “I wanted the first song on Ricochet to be somewhat hopeful, while also balancing some of the heavier themes of the record,” Jordan shared of the album opener. “I got inspired by Gregg Araki’s adaptation of Mysterious Skin and the use of alien abduction as a metaphor for lost time because of disassociation.”
The single also arrives with an official video, which features shots of Jordan on a New Jersey sheep farm. Pre-order the new LP here, and check out both versions of “Tractor Beam” below.
