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: You're hard on yourself Well you can't always be right All those little things that keep you up at night You should take some time to figure out your life But you're stuck indoors and thinking poorly You'll find in time All the answers that you seek Have been sitting there just waiting to be seen Take away your pride and take away your grief And you'll finally be right where you need to be Take all of it, take everything you're owed 'Til you finally feel okay being alone Yeah it's different now Yeah it's different now, you're old And you try, and you try, and you try, and you try
