Laura-Mary Carter and Steven Ansell have been making music together as Blood Red Shoes<\/strong> for more than 20 years. Over that time, they\u2019ve developed a connection that\u2019s almost telepathic. Their new album, *Stay Lonely*, will be released on September 18 via V2 Records. The duo wrote, recorded, produced, and mixed all the songs themselves, staying true to their tried-and-true DIY approach. Musically, the album blends garage rock, post-punk, and melodic moments. \u2013 Irresistible! <\/p>\n\n

When asked about the song \u201cUseless Sentiment,\u201d the duo explains: \u201cThat\u2019s the last song we finished for *Stay Lonely*. It kind of came out of nowhere. As a British band, there\u2019s something in our culture that we were, so to speak, born with: a certain sarcasm and that self-deprecating sense of humor that we all seem to share. Many of these elements come through in this song. It\u2019s about understanding your own feelings while, at the same time, constantly pulling the rug out from under yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n\n
