"Get Out" was CHVRCHES' comeback shot: the Scottish synthpop trio put it out through Glassnote on 31 January 2018 as the opening salvo from their third album, Love Is Dead, and their first new music in the two years since "Bury It" wrapped up the Every Open Eye run. Lauren Mayberry, Martin Doherty and Iain Cook wrote it with Greg Kurstin, who also produced, and the result is all glossy pulse and clenched-jaw urgency.
The rollout was pure internet-age theater. The day before, the band wiped their social media accounts and posted a clip of Mayberry scrawling a heart in lipstick on a bathroom mirror and then striking it out, captioned "Get In". A snippet of the instrumental played underneath, and anyone who ran it through Shazam got the title. Fans who sent the phrase to the band on Facebook Messenger were rewarded with the cover art.
