Our new album “Future Nausea” is coming on November 6th, 2026. Following their 2025 EP “A Brief Intermission in the Flattening of Time“, Spanish Love Songs return with a vengeance. Produced by ex-Death Cab For Cutie guitarist Chris Walla and Illuminati Hottie’s Sarah Tudzin, “Future Nausea” sets itself in direct opposition to the nostalgic American mythology that originally inspired the record.
“When I first sat down to work on the record, I basically told everybody I just wanted to make a big rock record, whatever our version of something like “Born in the U.S.A.” would feel like if it could exist,” frontman Dylan Slocum shares. “But as much as I wanted to make a major-key-sounding album, I wanted it to be as angry politically as it could be. More angry than sad. I actually think this is the least sad record we’ve ever made.”
“Good American”, the first single, is out now. Video made with Eric, Mitchell & the NYC dream team is up on YouTube. Song produced by Chris Walla & mixed by Sarah Tudzin.
Their lead single “Good American” personifies this definition. Bombastic guitars drive the track towards a melodic yet uneasy chorus about America’s treatment of veterans. “Brought you home to die out in the street/Like a good American,” Slocum belts on top of a flurry of kicks and a pounding bass riff.
“The military complex is a complicated, terrible thing that preys on economic instability and desperation, all under the guise of patriotism and making people feel like they belong to something greater than themselves.” says Slocum. “With Trump’s re-election I started seeing stories of Trans soldiers, including some career soldiers my own age, being tossed aside even more callously. It brought back the memories of the vets I met all those years before. From there, the story emerged in each successive verse. A story of what life looks like after the institution you believed in deems you surplus to needs.”
Slocum describes the track as possibly “the angriest song I’ve ever written,” with its recording following suit. “We wanted to keep it minimal. Loud. It sets the tone for the album and this era of the band. We wanted to keep everyone dancing and shouting,” he continues.” As the United States’ escalates its war with Iran, it’s hard not to see where Slocum is coming from. “Good American” understands this dilemma and presents it with catchy riffs and denim jackets galore.
