New York City’s Shower Curtain, the four-piece band led by Brazilian-American artist Victoria Winter, are thrilled to share their latest single, “you’re like me.” With reverberating guitars and emotionally cutting lyricism, today’s track displays Shower Curtain’s ability to digest fraught situations into melodic sound spheres of distortion. The centerpiece of their upcoming debut album words from a wishing well, out today via Angel Tapes/Fire Talk Records, “you’re like me” arrives with an official music video portraying a distant relationship directed by the NYC duo Sex Week.
“‘you’re like me’ is about realizing that often the people that hurt you the most are sometimes the ones with qualities that you see in yourself,” Winter explains. “It speaks about two people hiding their feelings for each other and lacking emotional responsibility with the other, leading to an endless loop of subtle hurting. Production-wise, I wanted the guitars to have a 90’s feel, we were also testing the use of the drum machine in the song. I was inspired by the returned use of y2k drum machine sounds in contemporary indie music.”
Later this month, Shower Curtain will embark on their first full-length headlining tour across North America, making stops along the East Coast and down South before heading midwest with fellow New York band MX LONELY. The tour will culminate in an album release show presented by Stereogum at local haunt TV Eye with support from a to-be-announced special guest, My Transparent Eye and Many Shining Windows.
