Snail Mail - Ricochet - New LP Record 2026 Matador Indie Exclusive Red Vinyl - Indie Rock / Pop

On ‘Ricochet,’ the third album from Snail Mail, Lindsey Jordan returns to assert herself as a generational songwriter, clear-eyed and honest as ever. Time has passed, but she remains a sensitive soul, and here her incisive introspection is tethered to newly expansive and hypnotic melodies and ornate string arrangements. While writing ‘Ricochet,’ Jordan found herself fixating on concerns she’d previously pushed out of her mind, namely death and what happens after. Jordan’s early music largely dealt with matters of the heart, a territory that she tried to step beyond on ‘Ricochet.’ 'Misery feels safe to write about because I am good at it,' she says, 'but I’m not bathing in my own agony anymore.' To feel the pain of everything and then nothing is a lonesome contradiction. ‘Ricochet’ is a record about being caught in this whirlpool, but Jordan’s music has never been so transcendent.
