German alt rock quartet Letters Sent Home return with a haunting and emotionally raw new single, “September 29,” out now via SharpTone Records. Marking the band’s first release since their explosive debut album Forever Undone, the track expands the narrative depth that vocalist Emily Paschke and the band have become known for turning personal trauma into cathartic anthems.
LETTERS SENT HOME UNVEIL NEW SINGLE “SEPTEMBER 29” VIA SHARPTONE RECORDS — LISTEN
Where their debut record pulled back the curtain on Emily’s experiences with mental health and religious trauma, “September 29” zooms in on one particularly defining moment. With cinematic dynamics and a gut-punch of a vocal performance, the single captures a snapshot of grief, reckoning, and irreversible change.
“‘September 29’ is about dealing with the grief I felt when I was slowly losing someone I loved to dementia and finding peace in knowing they were looking forward to leave this earth, even if it doesn’t align with my believe system,” says Paschke.
Since forming in 2015 in northern Germany, Letters Sent Home —comprised of the aforementioned Paschke, Lara Ripke (bass), Robin Werner (guitar), and Louis Schramm (drums) — have made waves across the alt rock and emo landscape with their fusion of vulnerability, melody, and raw force.
With “September 29,” the band shows no signs of slowing down, diving even deeper into the introspective waters that have defined their journey so far.
