It's been three years in the works, but we're finally hearing new music from The Ruffled Feathers.

"Cadaverine" is the first single off their upcoming Hand-Me-Down Centuries, which they started working on in late '014! The song is as charmingly dark as you would expect from the chamber-pop band, with singer Gina Loes saying in the press release:

"Cadaverine is the chemical that releases from dying organisms that our brain immediately recognizes as the smell of death. Our trumpet player Andrew [Lee] is a chemical engineer and studies air pollution and the chemicals that damage our ability to breathe. The song 'Cadaverine' reflects on the immediate, primitive awareness of death. This actually isn't the darkest song on the album, it’s just the most obvious. If you really want something dark listen to 'Sea of Hesitation' or 'Only 25'. 'Wood Buffalo' and 'How Many Days' are upbeat but ultimately heartbreaking."

Take a listen below, and get ready for the rest of the album on July 28th!
