Bright Eyes<\/a> have shared another new song, \u201cForced Convalescence,\u201d from their upcoming new album, which is expected to arrive later this year via Dead Oceans.<\/p>\n

The track finds Conor Oberst<\/a> staring down the past and future from his bed as a simple mix of stomping drums, soft piano and dreamy guitars spirals into a fanciful fever dream alongside Oberst\u2019s existential musings (the track even features the Red Hot Chili Peppers\u2019 Flea on bass). \u201cIn the dark, at a distance, I see everything at once,\u201d he sings, a full choir at his back, \u201cFeel the wind through the window and I\u2019m overcome love.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cForced Convalescence\u201d follows \u201cPersona Non Grata,\u201d<\/a> which Bright Eyes released at the end of March and marked their first new music since 2011\u2019s The Peoples\u2019 Key<\/i><\/a>. At the time, the band also announced their new album deal with Dead Oceans, although a title and release date for their upcoming record have yet to be announced.<\/p>\n

Bright Eyes were set to complement their new album with a 2020 tour<\/a>, although those dates remain up in the air due to the coronavirus pandemic. As of now, that run is still scheduled to kick off May 14th in Spokane, Washington.<\/p>\n
