Today the heiress of dark pop Meg Myers returns to ascend back atop her throne. In case your not familiar, Meg has been making a steady ascent since signing with Atlantic in 2013 and releasing a string of monstrous indie rock from the powerful "Sorry" to her thrashing "Desire" and addicting "Adelaide." The singer has been headlining shows along with opening for heavyweights including the Pixies, Alt-J and Royal Blood just this past year. 

With her new album Sorry coming this fall, Meg offer a taste with a new song that premiered over at Stereogum. Coaxing taut, deep-seated rock riffs out of her guitar, Meg gently beckons us into the song before hastening our pace until that chorus roars to life like a life-affirming anti-jealousy anthem declaring "you're mine." From there it all explodes as she melds guttural croons with shreds of 80's electric guitar, ripping a page out of Alanis Morrisette's book to go down like a jagged little pill that quickly numbs the pain of jealousy.

Listen to "Lemon Eyes" below. Sorry is out September 18 on Atlantic Records but you can pre-order it now. You can also catch Meg on tour including a stop at Austin City Limits and shows with AWOLNATION (dates below).
