Caitlin Starr)"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Did you think they were done? Earlier this year, Mx Lonely unleashed their debut album\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/stereogum.com\/2479501\/mx-lonely-announce-new-album-all-monsters-hear-big-hips\/music\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">All Monsters<\/a>, which exploded with the kind of ominous, alluring shoegaze that populates the reliable Julia&#8217;s War label. Now, they&#8217;re already back to announce a new EP called Perfect House.<\/p>\n<p>The lead single, &#8220;March 16th,&#8221; is out today, and it features Brooklyn-based musician Caitlin Starr. About it, Mx Lonely explain:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMarch 16th\u201d was originally written as an instrumental during the recording of \u201cALL MONSTERS.\u201d It was one we all really loved, but didn\u2019t quite fit into the world of the record. When Caitlin came into our studio to track harmonies and additional guitar on \u201cEx Rae Punk,\u201d we decided in the moment that it would be cool to try some ideas on \u201cMarch\u201d as well. Caitlin came up with the hook almost immediately, and Jake added a weaving harmony. Rae contributed the counter-melody \u201cI love you so\u201d later on in the tracking process. We did the final take of Caitlin and Jake\u2019s verse\/choruses that same night, with both of them tracking vocals live, simultaneously &#8211; singing the song through in entire takes, leaving a space for where Rae\u2019s verse would ultimately land.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lyrically, \u201cMarch 16th\u201d references the Brown University shooting, which had happened the day before the session on December 13th, 2025. A friend of Caitlin\u2019s had been in lockdown at the school in the aftermath. The song explores the proximity to tragedy and the cyclical nature of violence: we\u2019ve been here before.<\/p>\n<p>Watch the accompanying music video directed by Owen Lehman below.<\/p>\n<p>TRACKLIST:<br \/>01 &#8220;March 16th&#8221; (Feat.
