about
Notoriously hard to pigeon-hole; singular art-rock sound combines with elements of synth pop and midwest emo on new single ‘Mr. Bubblegum’.
“Have you ever been set dressing for a Zara kids photo shoot? We have and it’s hell when you’re in the midst of a messy breakup.”
The accompanying tongue-in-cheek music video is based on a popular dating app
lyrics
Then Oscar said something else you’d thought blue.
I’ll call her your name if you want me to.
And set aside that worldly fling.
Well six years don’t have wings, but babe believe they flew.
And yet it still feels mine.
How could I ever want what was never fine.
But now you won’t believe it’s true but..
A psychedelic kids extra, on Highbury Fields, thought of you.
Joe pinch me, we’re in the hands of Zara’s styling team.
The Macaulays are informing me on what fame really means.
You still occupy everything.
Cos since Weather, It hasn’t gotten any better.
My 12 in Kennington can wait.
We’re on the precipice of something bait.
Well Joe, you know they’ll...
They’ll never be the same as us.
And if you ever hear this just go and think of us.
Four boys died on that Beatles bus.
Freckled, love is now a cold metal.
Since Weather, It hasn’t gotten any better.
My 12 in Kennington can wait
We’re on the precipice of something great.
We bring the bad weather.
And I should’ve let, you crawl under my skin
Lets begin again
For the last time, Christ.
La la la la la..
Could have been anything out of life
It’s only now it stabs late at night.
After 3 months call me just to say:
Give back my favourite jeans.
Take back what he said to me.
Maybe it’s better alone.
Give back my favourite jeans.
Take back what he said to me.
Why do we have to pretend?
Let's begin again, begin again, begin again.
I can handle being the 3rd best guitar band in London
But baby just let me be first at something.
And now you won’t believe it’s true, but...
A psychedelic kids extra...

The great underlying instrumentation paired with Florence's droll stream of consciousness lyrics make this album stand out. It feels so personal and confessional. Favorite tracks are Strong Feelings and Leafy. I've heard Scratchard Lanyard on alt radio and love that one as well. tofupotpie
I was one of the few who couldn't quite embrace "New Long Leg", so when they released the follow-up "Stumpwork", it was much easier to embrace. More haunting, adventurous and brooding than its' predecessor. Matthew Flores
