Indie pop singer songwriter Claud released new songs today, “Wet” and “Crumbs.” Both tracks will feature on their sophomore album “Supermodels“, out July 14th via Saddest Factory Records. The new album follows 2021’s much-lauded “Super Monster“.
The two new singles give listeners a glimpse into the dynamic scope of “Supermodels”. “Crumbs” is a laid-back and contemplative acoustic track that gives Claud plenty of room to showcase their vocal talent. “Wet,” on the other hand, is an upbeat, ’80s-inspired synth-pop epic built around a captivating bassline and a delightfully crisp snare drum.
Of the two tracks, Claud shared: “‘Crumbs’ was born out of a couple tearful days inside, while ‘Wet’ was written in one fast sitting, the writing process as kinetic as the outcome. Writing both of these songs felt like dropping a boulder into a pond, really shaking up the way I look at myself as an artist. My hands tremble when I play these songs for people, which means I’ve accessed a new vulnerability in my songwriting that I hadn’t gotten to before.”
The next offering from their eagerly awaited sophomore album, “Supermodels“, The new album follows 2021’s much-lauded “Super Monster“. This acoustic, catchy tune boasts candid lyricism from Claud as they deal with frustration after a breakup.
Of the track, Claud says, “It’s Not About You” is a song I wrote about people taking the things you’re going through personally. I experienced this heavily when I was first coming out and receiving reactions that solely centered on the other person focusing on how my identity was going to affect their life. It’s frustrating and isolating, so this song goes out to those who are experiencing backlash at times when they really need support.”
