Today's Song of the Day, as chosen by John Richards, host of The Morning Show on KEXP, is "Escape" by Desire, from the 2020 album Escape on Italians Do It Better.
It's been nearly a decade-long wait, but Italians Do It Better outfit Desire return with a new album titled Escape.
Fronted by Montreal-based vocalist Megan Louise, and featuring production by label impresario Johnny Jewel, Desire continue to craft dreamy disco/synth-pop. As they describe it, "Megan Louise sings tales of love & lust cloaked in an analog sheen. Shrouded in a cinematic haze. Throbbing with violent rhythm. Fresh Blood for the new you."
