Ryan Reidy’s “Impossible To Love” Was Inspired By The Tragedy And Comedy Faced By People Who Come Together

Chicago/Los Angeles-based musician Ryan Reidy has released his new single “Impossible To Love,” the third from his upcoming album, Fringe Body Parts, out November 7th, 2025, via Money Pyre Records. Reidy presents Art Rock through a Midwestern DIY lens for the new album.

Reidy says about the song:

I was on a mission to watch all three of Krzysztof Kieślowski’s ‘Three Colors’ trilogy, and I rushed into watching ‘White’ without any previous knowledge of the work. It left a great impact on me about relationships, but more specifically about two people coming together and the tragedy/comedy of simply existing. I wrote this song immediately after watching the movie, and is about 98% accurate to the idea that came out of me. Lyrically, bed is a quadruple entendre.

Ryan Reidy has lolng been part of the DIY and Underground music scenes, previously playing in acts such as Ari Ari (Friction Records), Thunders (A Squared Industries/Asthmatic Kitty), and has been a touring musician for Margot & The Nuclear So And So’s and Male Gaze.

He says about the new album:

The title Fringe Body Parts was inspired by podcasters, influencers, and any other grifter/conmen that have co-opted spaces that used to be filled with leftist/progressive/socialist leaning artists. It’s about the oppressors using the language of the oppressed to harm people. More specifically, it’s commentary on people that misrepresent their fantasies as being simultaneously part of but outside of any academic discipline. In other words, there are no fringe historians just like there are no fringe kidneys. Musically, the record is uncivilized, ugly, feral, anguished, confused – an artistic expression of the times we are in. The cover is taken from a musical performance from my brother and I on Christmas morning 1990.
