The Austin-based Leopold and His Fiction have released their latest single "It's How I Feel (Free)" via LOUDWIRE. Watch and share here. The song appears on their new album Darling Destroyer coming out January 27, 2017. Preorder Darling Destroyer and receive "It's How I Feel (Free)" here.

Frontman Daniel Leopold speaks of the inspiration behind "It's How I Feel (Free)": "The rhythm was undeniably, the seed from which the content and swagger for this song grew. People always ask me if I'm stoned. My eyes are wide and bright, the better to see you with. I tell them, "sure. I'm stoned. My heart is made of stone." Speaking in punchlines, in rhetorical answers. A pacifists defense mechanism. On the road, at home, more often than not I'm finishing articulating my side of a discussion, or answering one million questions of when and why with, "It's How I Feel". I gave up being clever as far back as I can remember."

Throughout Darling Destroyer, Leopold and His Fiction reveal their gritty ingenuity by merging delicately crafted lyrics with blistering guitar work. Co-produced by Daniel, Vance Powell and Chris "Frenchie" Smith (...And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead, Ringo Deathstarr, Jet), Darling Destroyer proves Daniel's easy prowess as a frontman, his vocals endlessly shifting from brutal wail to tender serenade.

Leopold and His Fiction will support the release of Darling Destroyer with a U.S. tour this winter. See below for the complete updated dates.
