Following the success of 2024’s EP Lonely People and double single Mould/Whiplash, emerging alternative emo/math-rock outfit Love Rarely have released their new single Disappear, out now via independent record label Big Scary Monsters. 

Perhaps their most vulnerable moment to date, Disappear is about manipulation and control while acting as a form of catharsis, as the band weave through angular hardcore riff work and math-rock driven melodies. They serve as the backdrop to Courtney Levitt’s urgent, piercing snarls and soaring cleans that leave room for an underlying tenderness and vast loneliness, represented brilliantly in the accompanying music video. For a band still in their infancy there’s a raw ferocity that hopes to connect with people on a visceral level.

“Disappear is about feeling shit about yourself and trying to come to terms with the fact that those feelings are right. When I’m saying things like “inside of me, you don’t even know, I’m crying on my own” in the verse and then in the chorus “you said I should disappear”, it’s like I’m trying to say that I’m having a hard time and you’re making it worse by cementing the fact that I’m feeling this way so it must be true.” says vocalist Courtney Levitt. “It’s not really related to anything specifically in my life, but it’s something I’ve definitely experienced in the past and when we came to record this song it all just kind of came to me.”
