Pickup available at Record Plant Farsley
Usually ready in 24 hours
With an internet-born sense of humor and an instinct for turning vulnerability into spectacle, aldn has become one of the most distinct and enigmatic voices in alt-pop’s ever-mutating landscape. The Virginia-raised singer, songwriter, and producer first grabbed attention with his glitch-laced experiments and emotionally raw lyricism, but it was his 2024 viral smash “icantbelieveiletyougetaway” that sent his profile into the stratosphere. The single—a pixelated cry of regret and romantic confusion—cemented his reputation as both a sonic innovator and a self-aware avatar for Gen Z’s wired melancholy. Now, aldn announces his long-awaited debut album Strung Out Symphony
With Strung Out Symphony, aldn marks a defining chapter in his young career—not just as a TikTok darling or underground favorite, but as a full-fledged artist capable of capturing a generation’s inner monologue in all its beautiful, broken complexity. This is not just a debut album; it’s an identity, unraveling in real time. And if aldn has anything to say about it, the heartbreak will hit hard—but the drop will hit harder.
What separates aldn from his peers isn't just the genre alchemy—though he moves effortlessly between emo, electronic, indie, and hip-hop spheres—it’s his ability to balance self-awareness and sincerity. He’s as likely to post a surreal meme about heartbreak as he is to write a devastating hook about the same topic. That meme-like persona—equal parts satire and sadness—has drawn a cult following online, where fans see in aldn not just a sound but a sensibility. He’s the kid with a cracked screen and cracked heart, making bedroom anthems that feel like both a joke and a lifeline.
But make no mistake: beneath the irony and internet chaos lies real craftsmanship. Every song on Strung Out Symphony is meticulously self-produced, and every lyric feels pulled from a late-night text you shouldn’t have sent. Tracks like “miss me when you're drunk” explore emotional contradictions with brutal honesty, chronicling the messy aftermath of love with melodic bite and cinematic production. Meanwhile, fan-favorite “icantbelieveiletyougetaway” serves as the album’s emotional centerpiece—an anthem for the ones who slipped through the cracks and the self-sabotage that made it happen.
