Glitch: Lvl 1 (Mod) [CD]

Alt-pop artist Sophie Powers announced a new EP, Glitch: Lvl 1, due out on July 12 via Atlantic Records/TAG Music. "If Vanellope Von Schweetz from Wreck-It Ralph had a playlist, it would be this EP," she says. "Full of fast paced hyperpop, industrial and pop-punk sounds, it's the perfect record for summer '24! The listener needs to be ready to hear this EP, as it tackles topics such as ARFID, depression, anxiety, breakups, ADHD, love, and navigating life as a teen today. With technology having changed so much in the past 15 years, the visuals and aesthetics tie in nostalgic and pixelated graphics from my childhood, alongside the tech we see today. That's where the player ready? pixelated video-game storyline fits in. The listener should be ready for a blast from the past, and launch into the future. This is my last year of being a teen. I might as well go out with a bang!"
