Weirdo

Hot off signing to UK label Communion Records, Honeymoan’s second EP reinforces lead singer Alison Rachel’s love for an unconventional narrative. As her band showcase strong hooks alongside catchy indie-pop progressions, she deals with the effects of anxiety and depression (“Still Here”), a world that commodifies women’s sexuality (“Fidelio”), unrequited love (“Weirdo”) and the stubborn nature of middle-class guilt (“Too Much”). This alternative four-piece brew dream pop, shoegaze and synths into a giant bubbling cauldron and the end product is sweeter than most.
