JD Samson: New Album Is About Her Own Stressed-Out Self

JD Samson and Men have released the second single from their upcoming album, Labor, which Samson says is her most personal work yet.

On the single, “Making Art,” Samson “turns a stream of consciousness session into a thrumming dance song about all the frustration inherent in, well, making art,” reports MTV Hive. Samson told the site, “I feel like I just wanted to remind myself why I make work and how I make work and it just came out of me for this song.”


The album as a whole, she said, is “kind of the story of an anxious stressed-out character who’s trying to find their way through this record by going deep within themself and fighting their own demons. And that person is me.”

Labor is the second album by the former Le Tigre member’s current band, Men. It comes out October 22. Listen to “Making Art” below.
