Indie rockers Real Estate have shared “Haunted World,” the latest offering from their upcoming sixth album Daniel. Stream it below.
Though vocalist Martin Courtney claims that “This haunted world is killing me” in the song, it’s as breezy and ever. With a warm acoustic guitar and a chord change that illuminates the end of each musical phrase, “Haunted World” seems to be at peace with the anxiety Courtney depicts. “There is no rest, there is no sleep/ The day becomes the night,” he sings, referencing the existential toll of everyday life.
Real Estate previewed Daniel last November with lead single “Water Underground.” The album, which is dedicated to producer Daniel Tashian, will be the group’s first LP since 2020’s The Main Thing.
Real Estate have also announced a “Daniel-Only” album release show at Union Pool in New York on February 22nd. Admission is free with a RSP for anyone who has a “first, middle, or last name of Daniel (Dan, Danielle, Danny, Daniella, Danielson, etc).”
For everyone else, Real Estate is heading out on a proper North American tour beginning March 1st. Tickets are available here.
Daniel is out everywhere on February 23rd.
