A PERMANENT SHADOW – new single out
- Posted on 07-06-2026
Following the album “No Leaf Clover” (2024) and the covers EP “Summertime Love” (2025), the Barcelona-based project, A Permanent Shadow, announces its return with the single “We’ll Be One.”
Recorded at Mini-Blind Studios in Barcelona and produced by Valen Nieto, the song deals with the issue of stalking, the relentless harassment in an unhealthy romantic situation. The song’s protagonist is behind bars and reflects on his actions, without truly understanding what led him to this situation.
Obsession and unrequited love are the central themes of the song, whose video was filmed at the former “La Modelo” prison in Barcelona, directed by Jorge Rodríguez and featuring dancer Nirvana Sepúlveda. “I wanted to reflect the claustrophobia of being locked up, both physically and metaphorically, because obsession with another person can feel like being in prison for both the stalker and the stalked,” says CP Fletcher, founder and vocalist of the band. “Filming the video in a derelict prison was the best way to bring these ideas to life.”
Musically, “We’ll Be One” has a more organic feel than A Permanent Shadow’s recent releases. Fletcher explains: “Acoustic guitars predominate in this song, which isn’t typical for this project. However, I wanted to move towards a sound more reminiscent of Yacht Rock—soft and elegant—to give more weight to the lyrics. The upcoming album will feature songs more in line with our usual style, but I thought it would be interesting to release a quieter single, a departure from our typical sound.”
“We’ll Be One” and its music video are both available right now! The new album “Half-Century Dead End” will be released in January 2027.
