San Francisco indie pop duo corner club will deliver their sophomore EP this October.

Announced today, in the rearview mirror will be released on October 6. The seven-track release was self-produced by the duo with some friends jumping in to deliver some flute, bass, and cello melodies. A new single from the EP titled "whenever you're ready” revolves around an ex and their new love. Vocalist Savannah Du said this about the song:

"We channeled all of the mean energy in our bodies into this song. I would never want to wish truly bad things upon someone I once dated, but would I want them to feel the same insecurity that they caused me? Sure, maybe just a little. We drew inspiration from the likes of Lucy Dacus and Mitski, artists with soothing vocals but sometimes bombastic instrumentals, to play off the simultaneously biting and whimsical nature of the song."

An accompanying music video for the tune, which can be seen below, was directed by Emily Lin. Guitarist Michael Zhang said this about the visual:

"The story of the video basically has Sav following around her ex, watching mischievously as he meets a new girl, only for things not to work out (with the help of a little sabotage from Sav). At the end, there's a bit of a romcom trope, where the new girl meets the old girl and they commiserate over their shared experiences."

When it comes to the forthcoming EP, Du said:

"When we think back to where we were the last time we released music–in a different city, in different relationships, and with family having moved on and around–a lot has changed. We tend to write about the feelings that are most biting in the moment, and now that the EP is finished, we've found that some of those moments continue to stay with us and some are no longer relatable, hence the title 'in the rearview mirror.' With a longer project like this one, we had the opportunity to experiment with new styles while hopefully keeping some of our usual atmosphericness and storytelling."
