Prewn announces new album 'System,' shares title track
Briefly

Izzy Hagerup announced her new album as Prewn, entitled System, set to release on October 3 via Exploding in Sound. The album is described as a "private journal made public," stemming from a period of numbness and confusion, detached from heartfelt pain. The first single, also named 'System,' combines grungy guitars and strings, expressing internal fears and depression. Prewn will commence a European tour in October with listed dates in Berlin and Rotterdam.
Hagerup describes the album as a "private journal made public," adding, "This new album comes from a much more self-centered place, the stagnant aftermath of intensity and emotion. I think it came from a period of time that was more numb, hollow, and confused. More disassociated from heartfelt pain, more entrenched in a frustrating and aimless discomfort."
The first single from System is the title track, which layers grungy guitars with nagging strings for a palpable sense of dread. "When I wrote 'System' I was supposed to be present and alive and gracious and happy," Izzy says. "But somehow I couldn't escape my own internal fears and depression that can follow me wherever I go."
