Haiku Hands // Paradise

박혜진 Park Hye Jin // Foreigner
박혜진 Park Hye Jin has been a little quiet since her debut album Before I Die landed in 2021, but hypnotic new cut ‘Foreigner’ is worth the wait.
Real Lies // Shadowlands
Inspired by Jeff VanderMeer’s Southern Reach trilogy, broken glass, and memory loss; Real Lies’ new Sinking Suburb EP pairs escapist synth notes with hyper-real lyricism.
Humour // A Small Crowd Gathered To Watch Me
Scottish outfit Humour continue their steady rise with the release of their third EP, A Small Crowd Gathered to Watch Me. Unhinged wails combine with rousing choruses to pepper Humour’s post punk with a delightful hint of chaos.
