It will ship on or around 12\/11\/26  \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVictoryland is the Brooklyn-based project of musician Julian McCamman and \u003cbr\u003eDan Howard. Their 2026 album, My Heart Is A Room With No Cameras In It, is a \u003cbr\u003etriumphant, despondent, and ultimately fun experimental pop-rock album. A \u003cbr\u003eyear on, the record receives the deluxe treatment from new label home Dead \u003cbr\u003eOceans. My Heart Is A Room With No Cameras In It (Deluxe) arrives December \u003cbr\u003e11th 2026, on exclusive crystal clear vinyl, complete with new song “The Ugliest \u003cbr\u003eGirl On The Beach” and a new music video for album standout “I got god.”\u003cbr\u003eThe sound of the album, recorded between Julian’s Bed-Stuy basement and \u003cbr\u003eDan’s Williamsburg studio, is that of a bright and beaming collaboration. \u003cbr\u003eBlending lo-fi and hi-fi production, the songs have the glossiness of a \u003cbr\u003eradio-friendly hit mixed with the distortion and rough edges of a home demo. \u003cbr\u003eEvery song keeps at least one element of the initial recording, while building \u003cbr\u003earound the loops and half-songs Julian scraped together. The lyrics on the \u003cbr\u003erecord span from humorous self-aware popisms (“‘you and I’ will soon be, used \u003cbr\u003eto be ‘us’”) to crushing realities of bitterness (“i’ll never forgive you, that’s how I \u003cbr\u003ekeep you close”) and abstract imagery (“mothers wave from doorways, in \u003cbr\u003eostinato”), all delivered with such an immediacy and fervor that in the middle \u003cbr\u003eof singing along, you wonder if this guy slept much last night.\u003cbr\u003eMy Heart wrangles with heavy subject matter – love, disconnection, sexual \u003cbr\u003efrustration, emptiness – but the final statement of the record is about the \u003cbr\u003ecleansing nature of pop music. That, if a song can force you to bliss out over a \u003cbr\u003ehook or a loop, or even make you dance, it can be the spoonful of sugar to \u003cbr\u003eswallow the hard pill with. This is what Victoryland strives to do: package the \u003cbr\u003emost exhausting realities of life, love, and the search for connection in a world \u003cbr\u003estarved of it into a fun 2-5 minutes. And for the runtime of Victoryland’s first \u003cbr\u003emajor statement, you might even feel like you’re not alone.\u003cbr\u003eVictoryland as a project originated in Philly in 2023, with their first tape, Sprain, \u003cbr\u003earriving in 2024, which echoed more of what the Philly scene was dishing out: \u003cbr\u003elo-fi, tape-recorded rock with a capital R. It was the collaborative efforts of \u003cbr\u003eproducer Dan Howard that brought the new vision and sound into full focus. \u003cbr\u003eDan and Julian had previously worked together on Loving You Backwards by \u003cbr\u003eJulian’s Texas-to-Philly-based band Blood - that experience pushed Julian \u003cbr\u003etoward a more personal process of recording, starting with home demos and \u003cbr\u003ethen bringing them to Dan to shape into songs together. This relationship \u003cbr\u003eultimately led Julian to move to New York, and the recording of My Heart Is A \u003cbr\u003eRoom With No Cameras In It.\u003cbr\u003eMuch to their surprise, My Heart’s release ushered Victoryland into a whirlwind \u003cbr\u003eof a year. Pitchfork praised the album’s “bright, madcap approach reminiscent \u003cbr\u003eof the New Pornographers’ Twin Cinema or Clap Your Hands Say Yeah’s Some \u003cbr\u003eLoud Thunder.” Stereogum named it their Album of the Week and proclaimed \u003cbr\u003eit “a surprisingly cohesive scrapbook of sounds from seemingly every corner of \u003cbr\u003ethe indie pop umbrella.” The album also received support from Steve Lamacq \u003cbr\u003eat BBC 6 Music and Sian Eleri at Radio 1. After a string of sold-out shows in NYC, \u003cbr\u003eVictoryland later joined LCD Soundsystem on their North American tour and \u003cbr\u003eperformed at Pitchfork London, Pitchfork Paris, among other festivals across \u003cbr\u003eEurope.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jackpot Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67332295131354,"sku":null,"price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/5705\/3402\/files\/unnamed_1_10b8b75f-321e-4f59-9eda-43471e1e6f9d.jpg?v=1790694100","url":"https:\/\/jackpotrecords.com\/products\/victoryland-my-heart-is-a-room-with-no-cameras-in-it-deluxe-edition-crystal-clear-vinyl-lp-pre-order-out-12-11-26","provider":"Jackpot Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
