Today, Son Lux announce their new album ‘Out Into’, due for release on September 18th via City Slang, and share its soaring lead single “Endlessly”. The track arrives as the band’s first new studio material since receiving two Oscar nominations and a BAFTA nomination for their acclaimed score to Everything Everywhere All at Once, as well as composing the soundtrack for Marvel’s Thunderbolts.
“We’ll find our way.” When Son Lux founder Ryan Lott sings these four words near the outset of the band’s propulsive ninth album, ‘Out Into’, he’s making a vow, charting a course, advancing a philosophy, sealing a promise.
What follows is Son Lux at their most rhythmically immediate, lyrically urgent, and emotionally direct. Across nearly two decades, the trio – Lott, guitarist Rafiq Bhatia, and percussionist Ian Chang – have built a singular catalogue that blurs experimental composition, electronic music, hip-hop production techniques, and art-pop ambition. But while previous releases often expanded outward into sweeping, cinematic territory, ‘Out Into’ turns toward something more tactile and instinctive: a collection of songs shaped from spontaneous improvisation and first impulses captured in real time.
“We’re going places we’ve never gone before in terms of energy, attitude, color,” says Lott. “And it all comes from having reverence for those initial sparks, for treating the voice memo version of the idea as the most sacred iteration.”
Today they share “Endlessly”, a soaring anthem dedicated to embracing one’s true self. Commissioned by The Bluecoats, the world-renowned marching ensemble based in Canton, Ohio, the track balances euphoric release with emotional vulnerability, pairing propulsive percussion and towering arrangements with one of the band’s most direct and anthemic hooks to date.
