"[Marissa Nadler is]...at the peak of her powers right now. I found this one so eerily beautiful and I just can't get enough of it."

- Sheldon Pearce, NPR Music

Marissa Nadler releases “Light Years,” the final single/video from her new album, New Radiations, out this Friday on Sacred Bones, and announces a North American Tour. Following last month’s “dark and lovely” (Stereogum) cosmic murder ballad, “Hatchet Man,” “Light Years” explores the theme of fading love, with the autoharp adding an ethereal, sparkling quality to the music. The chorus—“You used to see light years inside her / you used to be right there beside her”—captures the slow, quiet death of a once-bright connection. “Back in the day, you were all the rage / when you could still hypnotize her. Rockets and planes, and through hurricanes / fused to the sight of her fire.”

On New Radiations, Nadler’s tenth official full length record, she returns with a raw, intimate, and breathtaking collection of eleven otherworldly songs. From the first note, her lush voice and intricate fingerpicking are front and center. She layers Everly Brothers–style harmonies over dreamlike, lonesome soundscapes— fuzzed-out distortion, Hammond organ, and ominous synthesizers—that elevate her warm vulnerability with texture and atmosphere.

Produced by Nadler herself, the album was recorded in Nashville, both at Haptown Studios with the help of friend Roger Moutenot, and her home studio. Mixed by Randall Dunn (Earth, Sunn O))), New Radiations features subtle, immersive arrangements from longtime collaborator Milky Burgess—woozyslide guitar, hypnagogic synthesizers, and gritty riffs that ebb and flow with oceanic intensity. New Radiations presents a more introspective and personal vision. Genre‑bending yet quintessentially her own, the album freezes the world’s noise in a moment of beauty and solemnity. New Radiations is not just another album—it’s a career highlight, a testament to Marissa Nadler’s singular vision and artistry.
