Rocketship - Hurt Feelings   [PREORDER]

Release date: 10/30/2026
Limited edition of 500 Passing Clouds color vinyl
CD, digital

With Hurt Feelings, Rocketship continues to surprise and please, evolving and expanding their distinctive and beloved melancholic pop into ever-more engaging and diverse domains.

From chamber ballads and the Bee Gees to Jobim, folk, and psuedo-metal, Dusty Reske and crew, with Hurt Feelings, show once again why after three decades Rocketship albums are critical listening for those who know.

Some treats Rocketship has cooked up for you:

"Lovers", the Bee Gees' smooth groove proto-disco paeon to lust, sincerely and playfully made modern by the 'Ship while remaining faithful to the original, Dusty singing in falsetto.

"Hotwired for Love", a hypnotic and grand electronic tragedy of loneliness and unrequited love, mixing the tension of Suicide with the major/minor dissonances of traditional American pop idioms.

"DewyEyed Doe/Nix!", a topsy-turvy 3 minutes' journey from sentimental entreaties to relational terror and pathetic appeasement, with fake heavy metal glee and a double-kick drum that fucks like Slayer's "Angel of Death".
