glaive samples Timothée Chalamet on new song “as if”

glaive has shared a new song called "as if" and confirmed the first details of his forthcoming new album i care so much that i dont care at all. The new track begins with dialogue lifted from a recording of actor Timothée Chalamet delivering a monologue in Prodigal Son, the off-Broadway play he starred in back in 2016.

"as if" follows previous singles "three wheels and it still drives!" and "minnesota is a place that exists." His album has no confirmed release date but new music is described as "imminent" in press materials. The new project will follow last year's old dog, new tricks, the deluxe edition of 2021 release all dogs go to heaven.

"We made ‘as if’ in December when we thought the album was already done," glaive says in a statement. "For a long time, I had been making music about relationships, but I hadn’t been in a relationship in a year and a half at that point, so I was forced to look more inward. This was one of the first songs where I guess I ended up talking about myself and the world from my perspective, rather than other people’s. It’s scary to be honest about who I am and for a long time, I was scared to show anyone the song."

In 2021 glaive appeared on The FADER Interview podcast, discussing his rapid rise and spending time in L.A.
