London duo Sorry are back with their first new music in two years. “Waxwing” feels like a step up, with dark, gleaming synths and a searing solo. It also finds inspiration in an unusual place: Toni Basil’s new wave cheerleader classic “Hey Mickey.” SORRY uses that song’s lyrics to their own devices, painting a brooding portrait of desire and obsession.
Say the band: “Mickey is desire? Mickey is the bomb? Mickey makes me money? Mickey makes my songs? Mickey makes a poem? Mickey in the drugs? Mickey is liar? Mickey making love? Mickey is desire?”
