The Danish band Liss have announced a new album: I Guess Nothing Will Be the Same is out June 10 via Escho and In Real Life. The album was recorded before the sudden death last year of frontman Søren Holm. The first two singles are “Country Fuckboy” and “Exist.” Find the song’s music videos below.

The songs are Liss’s first output since the May 2021 death of frontman Søren Holm. At the time of Holm’s death, no cause was given, but the surviving band members have now disclosed that their bandmate died by suicide. “It’s hard to talk about what happened. Søren lost his life to suicide. While he had been struggling with his mental health for several years, his death was a huge shock to everyone around him. We still have a hard time understanding what has happened,” Villads Tyrrestrup, Vilhelm Strange, and Tobias Hansen wrote in a statement. They continued:

Søren was an incredibly loving person who cared a lot about others, and you could always count on him when life was tough. He was the best friend one could ever dream of. We miss him every day, and we wish he had told us how he felt so that we could have helped him. The consequences of suicide are indescribably tough for those who are left behind. Losing a loved one in that way is not something we will ever get over. It is something you have to live with for the rest of your life.

Last spring, before Søren passed away, we had just finished a record which was ready for release. Writing our debut album has been a constant since we started Liss seven years ago. With the blessing and encouragement of Søren’s family, we’ve decided to share that music with you over the coming months. These are songs that we have been working on for many years and that we have dreamed of releasing since we started Liss. Søren was incredibly proud of what we created together and he put so much life and soul into the music, which will live on forever.
