London trio Mary In The Junkyard cheekily dub their sound “weepy chaos rok”, but they often summon something far more: an intricate magic weaved from vocalist and guitarist Clari Freeman-Taylor’s poetic, observational eye and freewheeling arrangements, equally informed by wiry math-laden contemporaries and elegant classical stylings. After a tireless couple of years and adventures stateside (a two-month tour with Wet Leg included), the former NME Cover stars have gone from courting Corsica buzz to counting fans in Marina Abramović. Facing their long-awaited debut upon this new foundation, ‘Role Model Hermit’ opens self-reflexive: “It is yours babe, you deserve it,” Freeman-Taylor…

“Fuck the fucking ceiling”.This is how Erin Hoagg, aka Rare DM, summarizes the attitude of “Attention”, her second work. Darkwave has a limit – she says – and it doesn't want to stop before it has gone beyond that limit. Imposed by who or imposed by what we cannot imagine, but Rare DM is too pop to be confined to a genre and too performative to be considered goth-adjacent. In this album desire is intertwined with obsession, electroclash, minimal wave and Ebm coordinates are taken until they are pushed further, onto the dancefloor of an imaginary club seen through a…
