LETDOWN. Announces New Album 'Be Ok' & Releases Title Track Featuring LØLØ


Today, alt-rock artist, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Blake Coddington aka Letdown. announces his raw and introspective new album, Be Ok, slated for release on November 15, 2024 via Big Loud Rock. In tandem with the announcement, Letdown. has unveiled the album’s title track, “Be Ok,” featuring alt-pop singer-songwriter LØLØ.

The reflective single is a powerful exploration of emotional turbulence and the complicated dynamics of a dysfunctional relationship. Written by Letdown. during the end of a serious relationship, “Be Ok” captures the duality of longing for something that was ultimately unhealthy. "I was so focused on my love for someone else that I didn't realize how much it was actually shooting me in the foot," Coddington reflects. "I didn't understand that everything could be better if this was over. At the same time, it immediately says, ‘I never thought I'd miss you this way.’ It's something I think about all the time. I left everything negative in my life that has affected me, but I still think about it in a way that is almost like I miss it. It's a weird headspace to live in—to hate something and know it's gone, but still want it somehow. I think it's something that everyone feels, and a lot of people don't talk about that much.”

The Be Ok album promises to be a vibrant collection of Letdown.'s signature sound, blending elements of punk, emo, electronic, and pop into cathartic rock anthems. The album's previous singles, "Hate Myself" and "Crying In The Shower," have already made an impact, both breaking into the Top 25 at Alternative radio. These songs, along with the rest of the album, reflect Coddington’s therapeutic songwriting process, which serves as both an emotional outlet and a way to connect with listeners facing similar struggles.

“I think I'm at the end of writing about my problems,” Coddington muses about the album's themes. “I've been putting myself through emotional music therapy for three years now, and it's working. I'm finally looking back and laughing for the first time. I consider it the upswing of the depression. I'm about to enter this whole new phase in my life. Everything feels new again for the first time.”

Since his debut in 2020, Letdown. has been a compelling voice in the alt-rock scene, captivating fans with his raw and honest storytelling. With Be Ok, Coddington continues to push his artistry to new heights, inviting audiences to join him on a journey of self-discovery and healing.
