Today, emo quintet Sweet Pill shared that their second album, Still There's a Glow, will be released on March 13th, 2026 under Hopeless Records. It is their first release fully written as a group.
The lead single "No Control" is out now; it was additionally shared on Apple Music's The Zane Lowe Show earlier today. Watch the music video here:
Vocalist Zayna Youssef explains the lead single as "my way to rock bottom. It is my fancy way of calling myself a pushover, unconfident, and ungrateful. I had this ‘grass is always greener’ kind of mentality and wanted more when I already had it and then some."
Still There’s a Glow is a hard-fought document of self-reflection and growth. Written and recorded in the wake of a whirlwind three years following their 2022 debut LP, Where the Heart Is, Still There’s a Glow is a dynamic, cathartic journey of making conscious change within oneself.
Sweet Pill will be touring across the United States and Canada; see those dates down below.
