This ten song record from 2023 is already an underground classic. Is it surfy new wave punk? Punky Disco? Whatever it is IT’S FUCKING GREAT. Lira Mondal is the vocalist I want to hear everyday singing every song. The obvious musical comparison might be Pylon, but there’s also a poppy Romeo Void vibe that I’m fully addicted to. The best record of this year and it came out last year! hahaha!

I would say this is super listenable Political Punk, but I hate the idea that great bands with normal ideas like equality for everyone are “political” when really it’s everyone else who is being boring as hell while upholding the status quo. Lambrini Girls are way too musically wild and way too fun to be tied down to all these words anyways. Even better lyrics than Idles and I really like Idles. I know it’s not a competition but if it was….Take a deep dive into their interviews on YOUTUBE. You will not regret it.

the opener to their stunning & expansive debut (& only) album . it’s like screamo shoegaze for cathedrals . you can barely ever make out what he’s singing but it doesn’t matter because you can Feel It & the music sounds huge . the whole album would fit the vibe imo but this song is especially perfect because you can scream along with him singing I LOVE YOU FOREVER (& ever & ever & ever) .. & what’s better than that 💞

I just started reading this collection of essays and am absolutely hooked. LaPointe’s writing is so incredibly fresh and relatable whether she’s talking about international politics or bad TV. When her Father says “ There are no Native Americans on America’s Next Top Model” and she responds “Just moments before I had been angry about the male gaze, about objectification. I stood silent, jaw agape as he continued, They don’t think to include us because they don’t remember us, They don’t even know we exist.” Heartbreak and humor exists on almost every page I’ve read so far and I wake up everyday excited to read more.

This book says “A Memoir in Verse” on its cover but it DOES NOT MATTER IF YOU DON’T “GET” POETRY OR HATE IT EVEN. This book will change your mind. This is the funniest most fucked up book you will ever be lucky enough to read. Seriously do yourself a favor and get it because I can’t describe seeing a sunset while having an orgasm anymore than I can describe this book.
