The Bapti$$ Unleashes “My Father’s Sins,” A Haunting Reckoning with Legacy, Pain, and Spiritual Battle, taken from Just-Announced Debut LP, Pop Cult(ure), out September 26th
Following the soul-stirring release of “Crazyglue and Skeletons,” The Bapti$$, the boundary-pushing musical rebirth of multi-instrumentalist Joseph LaPlante, returns with “My Father’s Sins,” a raw, introspective new single taken from his just-announced debut album, Pop Cult(ure), out September 26th.
Anchored in aching guitar and a deep 808 heartbeat, “My Father’s Sins” is a confessional offering that digs deep into the scars of lineage, masculine silence, and the fight for spiritual freedom.
“I wholeheartedly believe in Generational Curses and contracts made with the Spirit World,” LaPlante reveals. “I took it on myself to break my family tree free of those shackles that have caused so much pain in my blood line.”
The song’s emotional centre lies in its chorus, a brutally honest reflection on fatherhood, loss, and emotional repression.
“My dad taught me to suffer in silence, so I always wonder if when he is alone he actually does break down, shed a tear, and feel the pain that life has brought with all the loss and struggles,” says LaPlante. “I know for myself I am the rock for my wife and kids so my feelings, emotions, and thoughts are always last to the well-being and happiness of my family.”
Haunting, thoughtful, and restless, “My Father’s Sins” is another stirring entry in The Bapti$$’s growing catalogue of deeply spiritual, emotionally rich music. Each release is guided by a fierce sense of purpose and a refusal to ignore the deeper forces at play.
