### **Atlanta duo I Am a Rocketship presents new single ‘Do You Feel Good’ feat. Kellii Scott (Failure, Veruca Salt, Dr. Dre, Pink)**

_“‘Do You Feel Good’ is laden with a swaggering attitude and a thunderous delivery
augmented by a raking guitar riff. Frontwoman L E Kippner has a laconic delivery
with style and power – indeed the duo have the melodies and thunder similar to Shirley
Manson and Garbage. The sound is epic and dramatic with an euphoric, anthemic chorus
and a delicious taste of wry cynicism”_ ~ **[Backseat Mafia](https://www.backseatmafia.com/premiere-i-am-a-rocketship-unveil-their-take-down-of-superficiality-in-the-track-do-you-feel-good-along-with-album-news/)**

Atlanta-based atmospheric alt-pop duo [**I Am a Rocketship**](https://iamarocketship.com/)
present their new single[ **‘Do You Feel Good’**](https://youtu.be/maCyyqgOBdM),
a powerful introduction to their forthcoming album** ‘La Cruella’**, a collection
of ten tracks about uncertainty, fear and dreams.

‘Do You Feel Good’ is about how people transform into their perceived personas –
from folks wanting to dress like Instagram influencers when they travel, to politicians
creating fictional back stories, this song asks if you truly feel good once you 
are an artificial construct.

Always based around melodies, I Am a Rocketship mixes warm vocals, loud guitars,
and cool electronic beats to explore that place where rock and trip-hop never quite
met.

While I Am a Rocketship is a self-contained duo (writing, recording, and creating
art and videos themselves), this single represents the first time they have enlisted
an outside contributor – [**Kellii Scott**](http://kelliiscott.com/). Perhaps best
known as the drummer for the legendary band **Failure **and his work with other 
artists, including **Veruca Salt, Dr. Dre, Pink, Enemy **and **Christina Aguilera**.

“We tried a different way of writing songs for this album, and it turned out that
every song had a story. Since our musical style has changed a bit with this album,
the way that the lyrics tell those stories has changed as well. These songs don’t
spell out what is happening but are about feelings. We hope people will find something
to recognize, maybe feel that one of the song speaks to them,” says frontwoman **
L E Kippner**.

“It was fun adding Kelli’s drums to our sound. He recorded the drums separately 
and the final song didn’t end up at all like we expected because when we heard the
drums it inspired a lot of changes to the rest. I wouldn’t mind doing more collaborative
work in the future.”

Before I Am a Rocketship, **Eric Weissinger** was a bassist and guitarist backing
up various artists and opening for the likes of The Wedding Present, The Black Crowes
and James. Everything changed due to a chance meeting with **L E Kippner** – cellist,
scientist, radio DJ and singer for Swedish synth-pop duo **Neobox**. After forming**
Hitchcock Blondes** in Ohio, they relocated to Atlanta to try new ideas and launched
I Am a Rocketship, for which their music has been warmly met across the world.

‘La Cruella’ will be the band’s sixth major release, following their 2016 debut 
album** ‘Mission Control’**, the** ‘Mind Grafitti’ **album (2019), **‘Ghost Stories’**
album (2020), the** ‘oRAnGE’ EP** (2020) and the latest long-player **‘[Lies and Legends](https://www.nyrdcast.com/2021/09/atlanta-indie-electro-rock-duo-i-am-a-rocketship-return-with-fever-dream-previewing-most-ambitious-lp-yet/)‘**(
2021).

“We just let go on this album, and often jokingly said “well, this is going to kill
any reputation we had.”  It’s very pure, for want of a better term. We just wrote
what we felt,” explains **Eric Weissinger**.

“This album is more improvisational than the others. A lot of the instrumental tracks
were first takes, no punches or correcting. I wouldn’t say there was less thought
put into this, but it was less planned than our other albums.”    

As of June 13, ‘Do You Feel Good’ is available as a [**Bandcamp**](https://iamarocketship.bandcamp.com/)****
exclusive. On August 4, the full ‘La Cruella’ album will be released on all fine
music platforms, including [**Spotify**](https://open.spotify.com/artist/772e03CWP0SSfAbbsMbCHd)****
and** [Apple Music](https://music.apple.com/us/artist/i-am-a-rocketship/1212140750).**
