Overview

  • The ballad arrives with a video and features contributions from Josh Freese and Troy Van Leeuwen, her former A Perfect Circle bandmates.
  • Triste is due October 17 with a 12-song track list now public, released on her Hideous Human label and mixed by Chris Coady.
  • Lenchantin wrote much of the album in Petatlán, Mexico, and brought in Spanish-speaking musicians she connected with via Instagram.
  • An official bio frames the record’s narrative about a woman who falls in love with Jesus as a metaphor for salvation rather than a devotional statement.
  • After parting with Pixies in 2024, she says she made the album on her own to be “nurtured back” and even turned down a high-profile gig to focus on it.
