For this release, Kurt and Courtney each recorded a song from the band’s third album, 2017’s I Used to Spend So Much Time Alone, in their signature styles. Side K is Kurt’s version of “This Time of Night,“ on which he lovingly recreates the anxious interplay of Julia Shapiro and Lydia Lund’s guitars, stretching each note of the song’s fraught vocal melody to its breaking point. Flip the record to Side C for Courtney’s take on “Different Now,“ where she pulls the song from its Pacific Northwest haze, leaves it out to dry in the middle of the desert, and wrings something almost joyous from the original’s ambiguity. “This Time of Night“ / “Different Now“ will be available on vinyl and digital platforms, with a one-time retail vinyl pressing limited to 1500 (250 pink, 250 black, 1000 blue) copies on heavyweight vinyl. Lyrics: Fucked up, anxious Full of fear How, how did I get here? Well I don’t know Pull the sheets over my eyes again Caught blind this time of night It’s wicked, but it’s warm And it doesn’t feel right Waiting for nothing These feelings come and go How, how do I get out of here? Well I don’t know Pull the sheets over my eyes again Caught blind this time of night It’s wicked, but it’s warm And it doesn’t feel right Pull the sheets over my eyes Pull the sheets over my eyes Pull the sheets over my eyes Pull the sheets over my eyes
