Antidote to Being Bored

High-octane indie rock with fuzzed-out guitars and a Britpop heart. A loud, distorted departure from Lang's usual hazy bedroom pop sound.

It's like if the quiet bedroom pop kid finally bought a Marshall stack and decided to wake up the whole neighborhood.

A restless, high-voltage surge of youthful energy that uses distortion to mask vulnerability.
