The
vocals were recorded using a phone and the rhythmic sensibilities derive from a
GarageBand drum break. This is not the typical formula for a song that grabs
our attention. But “Private” first demands and then commands attention. It is a
single from “(((((ultraSOUND))))),” the album from The Neighbourhood (released date
is November 14). The song is about keeping a relationship private (the lyrics
are at the bottom of this post).
The Neighbourhood
are a California-based alternative rock band comprised of Jesse Rutherford,
Zach Abels, Brandon Fried, Jeremy Freeman, and Mikey Margott. Regarding the soon-to-be-released
album, the press materials share:
“Blending the raw energy of '90s alt-rock with a modern, introspective edge, ‘(((((ultraSOUND)))))’ signals a powerful return to the band's roots. Drawing inspiration from Brit-pop while maintaining their signature California Indie sound, the record weaves together delicate yet gritty vocals with a darker, moodier sonic palette. Elements of Grunge and Psychedelic textures add depth to a sound that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly evolved. Lyrically, the album is intimate and self-aware, exploring heartbreak, disillusionment, and emotional vulnerability with a maturity that reflects the band's artistic growth.”

Lyrics of “Private” by The Neighbourhood
You radiate, in shades of grey
Disintegrate, 'til it fades away
Not gonna change your mind when it's made
Bent out of shape, age
Keepin' it private
Uh-huh
Shh, keepin' it private
Uh-huh
Shh, keepin' it private
(Ultrasound)
Uh-huh
You've got a way, contagious in a room (room)
Hallucinate, when I'm dancin' with you (ooh)
All that it takes is a taste
And we'll know what we should do
Too soon to say, better behave
Shh, keepin' it private (ah-ah, ah-ah,
ah-ah-ah)
Uh-huh (ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Shh, keepin' it private (ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Uh-huh (ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Shh, keepin' it private (ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Uh-huh (ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Shh, keepin' it private (ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Uh-huh (ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Why does it feel like we're hiding?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Why does it feel like we're hiding?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Why does it feel like we're hiding?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Why does it feel like we're hiding?
You radiate, in shades of grey
Disintegrate, 'til it fades away
Not gonna change your mind when it's made
Bent out of shape, age
Uh-huh
Shh, keepin' it private
Uh-huh
Shh, keepin' it private
(Ultrasound)
Uh-huh
Hallucinate, when I'm dancin' with you (ooh)
All that it takes is a taste
And we'll know what we should do
Too soon to say, better behave
Uh-huh (ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Shh, keepin' it private (ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Uh-huh (ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Shh, keepin' it private (ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Uh-huh (ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Shh, keepin' it private (ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Uh-huh (ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
Why does it feel like we're hiding?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Why does it feel like we're hiding?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Why does it feel like we're hiding?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Why does it feel like we're hiding?
