Chiiild Wishes Listeners "Better Luck In The Next Life" On New Album

Before the weekend comes to an end, we've got more New Music Friday leftovers for your consideration. This week, Chiiild joins the roster of artists unleashing new albums, following singles like "Bon Voyage" and "Good For Now" featuring Lucky Daye with his 12-track Better Luck In The Next Life album. It arrived at midnight on March 3rd and has since earned the creative an abundance of new listeners.

Besides the aforementioned guest appearance, Chiiild also worked with a host of other talented lyricists. Alina Baraz and Caitlyn Scarlett join him on "Hell And High Water," while Charlotte Cardin helped out with "I Hope I Packed A Parachute." The rest of the album's songs, the Canadian experimentalist handles on his own.

On his link-up with Daye, Chiiild markedly reflects on how important it is to stay present. "Tell me that we’re dreaming, don’t say that we’re in love, uh / Whatever this is, it’s good for now, at night we’ve been restless," he sings. "You say that we’re destined, I say you’re just caught in the moment/ When you’re close, I get reckless, laying in the wreckage."

In a press release, the "Pirouette" hitmaker described his new album as "a bit of an autobiographical record that covers all of the things that [he loves] and some of the things [he's] gone through." He noted that it's a "very honest" body of work that only begins to tell his personal story and answer questions not only about his career but also about who he is as a person.
