Like the « Brat Summer », just different – diepresse.com
The summer sounded shrill last year, and poison green was on top of that. This year you are a bit more dark, but no less rebellious. What the « Lorde Summer » brings.
You don’t want to say goodbye to the inner Gör yet. The demand for poison green fashion has only recently increased again. In a common cause with rowing bodies and shortesthoses, she already served last summer to display the rediscovered nonchalance, a counter -design to the ever efficient « Clean Girl ». Or its adult variant, the « Tradwife ». Now that Donald Trump wants to use women overseas to the stove overseas, strengthen the rights in Europe, many of them claw with long acrylic nails in neon colors on the hedonistic party lifestyle. The « Brat Summer », named after Charli XCX’s successful hyperpop plate, could go into the next round.
But it is the case that every summer requires its own soundtrack, two years the best album is not at the top. Overalls have already admitted to Charli XCX. The next one has long been waiting for their introduction as such: singer Lorde. One of those who can be heard on « Brat ». In « Girl, according to confusing » she and Charli XCX work on personal misunderstandings, disassemble the rivalry brought up by the boulevard between them, explore the emotional ambivalence among women in pop (and elsewhere). Since Lorde has already revealed her slimming craze, now she is singing it back in her own new number. It is The first in four years: « what was that ».
The network and the Washington Square Park quickly took her with mysterious snippets of the song and a narrow announcement. « Meet Me in the Park Tonight 7pm –XX » had organized it via Instagram, on the New York green area there was a mass rank (Lorde has not only been known since yesterday, her most famous hit « Royals » is from 2013). In the absence of approval, the musician had to let the park clear, at least she tried it before she even appeared. But later she played it.
Rotzfrech, one could say that a « roast » is worthy in any case. And also from a marketing point of view: online since then, more snippets from the New Zealander have been buzzing around, recently the music video in full length. Almost many waiting for their announced album, the release date of which is not even known – and the coming summer has been given their name. « Lorde Summer is getting closer » has the « Vogue“Titled.
Musically, this summer is a darkerer than the last, but still danceable (with creaking synth bass and isolated pop elements). And he is still characterized by carefree « girls », only they now look a bit differently. Silhouettes continue, the colors of more subtle, but not pastel. « Normcore » calls it the « vogue », that means: jeans and t-shirt. At the Coachella Festival in April, the difference between « Brat » and « Lorde » was easy when Charli XCX Lorde asked on the stage, for the relay handover. One in the tight hoserl and top, the other in the gray slabbera. But the attitude was the same. Being upholstery is no longer a mood, but has become elixir of life.
