Blue Skies follows Dehd’s 2020 breakthrough, Flower of Devotion (designated Best New Music by Pitchfork), and is loaded with the most compelling, compulsive, and expansive songs of their career.

Today’s “Bad Love” is a surge of self-liberation, with vocalist Emily Kempf leading the charge through an anthem about admitting your faults, seeking forgiveness, and finding a way forward. “I was a bad love / Now I can get some,” she offers at the start, “I got a heart full of redemption.” The accompanying video was directed by Kempf and co-director, Kevin Veselka.
