Ethel Cain’s new single “Fuck Me Eyes” was 5 years in the making

Ethel Cain has revealed a new single titled “Fuck Me Eyes,” as a part of her forthcoming album, Willoughby Tucker, I’ll Always Love You. That record is set for August 8. The single follows the release of "Nettles", released last month.

Can says, “I wrote the beginning of this song five years ago, making it the oldest demo for the record. As the story became more fleshed out, I realized it had a more relevant place on the album than I originally thought.”

Describing the song, Cain identifies it as "an ode to the girls who are perfect and have everything, yet carry the reputation of town slut. The beautiful blonde who is just lonely and wants to be loved, that all the adults condemn to each other, who ultimately is the girl everyone simultaneously can’t stand and wants to be."

The album, Willoughby Tucker, I’ll Always Love You, which will be released under her independent label, Daughters of Cain, acts as a prequel to her earlier work, Preacher's Daughter.
