I had also just watched the Beatles documentary that the Lord of the Rings fella made, so I was inspired to use more jangly chords than I usually do. It was a strange one to bring to the band but the arrangement came together instantly and it… Read more »

Following the breakout virality of her haunting alt-pop hit “In My Room” and its biting follow-up “Jennifer’s Body,” dark-pop auteur Julia Wolf returns with her rawest release yet—“Loser.” The single offers a third, striking preview of her forthcoming sophomore album Pressure, due out May 23 via AWAL. Where previous tracks leaned into eerie elegance and infectious hooks, “Loser” dials directly into emotional self-ruin. Built on a bed of slow-burning vulnerability and squealing guitar lines, “Loser” captures the psychological spiral of loving someone you don’t feel worthy of. Wolf’s vocals waver between restraint and desperation as she excavates insecurity in its… Read more »
