Add to playlist: the sweaty, unvarnished electropop of Punchbag and the week’s best new tracks
The sibling duo’s follow-up EP spikes their off-kilter pop with new darkness, adding atmospheric balladry to their glorious racket
TL;DR
- Punchbag's new EP 'I Am Obsessed' introduces darker tones and atmospheric elements to their established electropop sound.
- The EP features tracks like 'Playing God,' an ironic ballad dedicated to men in power, and 'I Love This!,' a nu-rave adjacent anthem.
- Other recommended new tracks include 'Silently' by Tara Clerkin Trio, 'Slumpz' by Babyfather, and 'Boots on the Ground' by Massive Attack.
- Katseye offers brat-pop anthems, while Disgusting Sisters blend Smerz, Charli XCX, and Billie Eilish influences.
- PPP delivers a steamy, syncopated track that evokes a summery feel.
