New album in September. Expect the single very, very soon!!
CANNOT WAIT! 'SAWAYAMA' is my favourite album of 2020. A lot of hype for this from me. |

Oh now this is something to look forward to - some of the snippets have me excited already, especially the riff at the end

Hyped for this as I loved her last album! Admittedly I didn't care for 'LUCID' but that teaser already sounds a lot more interesting than that *.*

"This Hell" out now!
I really like it. Gives me major early 10s Gaga vibes. |

Trying to think who the voice in the verses reminds me of, the closest I can think of is Natalia Kills?

The album artwork is everything 🤩 one of my favourite covers in a long time
Agree that This Hell is very BTW era Gaga, which really suits her. I wish it went a bit harder in places, but I’m liking it a lot. Really hoping she’ll properly take off with this era, I feel like she’s set up to huge now. |

Loving 'This Hell' - JUST what I wanted from her!! The album cover I am not totally in love with yet. I am comparing it to the SAWAYAMA album cover which is pure ART so it's hard to come close to that for me. It's certainly striking though.

QUOTE(Brer @ May 18 2022, 10:51 PM)  (why is this in the Indie forum x) one of her five listed genres on wiki is 'alternative pop' so it can't be helped This is great, very promising for more tunes from her. Got some great guitar breakdowns. |

This is very Rina listening to the Born This Way album and asking Xenomania to make her something like that.

Quite pleasant actually - but yes it’s definitely pretty much a straight up pop song - not sure it’s best placed in this forum?

It's such a bop! Love the Shania-esque intro, the Britney reference and "that's hot"; very late-90's/Y2K which suits Rina so well. The album cover is also a total serve.

Yeah this is quite the bop! Fingers crossed it can do something for her.
I'd say it definitely belongs in pop btw. This post has been edited by Mangø: May 19 2022, 06:51 PM |

Came here to say that this could be a forgotten Born This Way album track… so naturally I’m obsessed with it

Love this! I thought it was a little Marina-esque (particularly the talky bits) but blacksquare's description of it being Xenomania-does-Born This Way feels very fitting!

This is growing on me! I like the Shania/BTW influences, but it still feels like it'd be one of the weakest songs on SAWAYAMA. I'm gonna give it time though because I feel like I'll come round to it eventually.
