Good morning, dear hoddlers, and welcome to another Track of the Day.
I know, I know - I spoil you!
Yesterday we had the privilege of listening to Haim’s fourth single for their upcoming album. Today we head to the Isle of Wight to check out what Wet Leg is up to.
As you’re well aware by now, Wet Leg are releasing a new album this summer. Moisturizer, out 11 July, will be the band’s sophomore album after they bursted onto the indie rock scene with their self-titled debut.
We already heard their first song on the new record: catch these fists.
Today we get to their second song: CPR.
As Hoddle Headquarters previously discussed, this looks like a very different Wet Leg. The band ditched their English countryside look for something far edgier
And the music backs it up, too. We again have an absolutely killer riff, with a synthesizer adding a lovely bit of texture to the chorus.
Lead singer Rhian Teasdale voice is far more sharp than it used to be. The lyric structure remains the same: nonsensical and a pleasure to listen to.
We’re two songs into Wet Leg’s second album, and it’s a very exciting start. And I think they’re producing some of the freshest music out there right now.
Wet Leg are also going on tour! Your hoddler-in-chief has already secured his tickets.
