The latest glimpse of boygenius‘ highly anticipated debut album ‘the record’ is the gorgeous âNot Strong Enoughâ. On it, the trio, made up of Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers and Lucy Dacus, explore complex feelings of self-hatred juxtaposed with a God complex, sharing reflections like: “I tried, I can’t / Stop staring at the ceiling fan and / Spinning out about things that haven’t happened”.
From the soaring bridge â which sees them assert that they are “Always an angel, never a god”, with the vocals gradually layering over growing instrumentals â to the beautiful chorus, it’s another stellar offering from the group.
âNot Strong Enoughâ goes straight onto the NME Radio A List this week, alongside BERWYN‘s latest tune âBulletproofâ. Also new to NME Radio are tracks from Arlo Parks, J-hope & J. Cole and Eliza Rose, alongside a choice cut from Slowthaiâs recent album âUGLYâ.
