Newfoundland-based Goth Pop band Elita recently announced upcoming album Dysania and along with that news came with the release of the album’s second single “Mentally Not Here.” Their new music builds on the dark, haunting subjects of their past projects with songs that tie in themes of anxiety and depression with the supernatural.
Speaking on the forthcoming album’s second single, Elita writes:
This song is existential dread. Feeling drained by the impending doom of an apocalypse. The cursed beat and dissonant melodies put you on edge. It sounds like lo-fi hell hounds started a band and recruited a disillusioned angel to be their singer.
The song followed the album’s first release, “Sleep Paralysis,” and follows-up their Anxiety Angel EP. The band has also shared details of their upcoming North American tour. The 25 stop tour commences in Boston on April 7th, 2023 concluding in Montreal on May 27th.
