"Loveback" Single: Alice strides towards the June 17th release of their second album ‘S.I.D.E.S.’ by sharing the new song ‘Loveback’. ‘Loveback’ opens ‘S.I.D.E.S.’ with a bang. At first it feels like a bellicose leap into indie-rock and power-pop, but cheerleader-style group vocal shouts and leftfield alt-pop traits soon set its fun factor to stun. While it provides a playful opening punch to the album, there’s a serious note too. Her lyrics introduce the themes that follow throughout with the rebellious statement: “Watch my lips as I say: I don’t need you!” "S.I.D.E.S." Alice Merton announces her forthcoming album, S.I.D.E.S., due June 17 via Paper Plane Records International. Alongside the announcement, she has shared a brand new single entitled "Same Team". Speaking on the album and its inspiration, Alice wrote: “The last two years have been challenging for everyone in some way or another. Friends and Family were lost, boundaries were enforced for the first time since I’ve been alive, and mental strength had been tested to its limit. S.I.D.E.S tells my story of how I experienced these past years. It’s a summary of the ups and many downs, the psychological challenges I faced, and somehow realizing that there will always be another SIDE, the question is just how and when do you get there.”
