Julien’s Daughter – “Rockefeller”

Winnipeg indie wunderkinds Julien’s Daughter are back with another single, “Rockefeller.” Tight bass lines coupled with singer Emma Murphy’s vocals give a noise rock vibe akin to the Sonic Youths and My Bloody Valentines of yesteryear while simultaneously channeling the tight indie rock of Metric and Blondie.

Speaking to the making of the song, Murphy said: “It’s a song about how exhausting the breakup process can be. I wrote this song at a time when a lot of people were making different narratives about me and I was just trying to focus on healing.” If this is a harbinger of things to come, I hope that it doesn’t take more traumatic events to keep the bangers comin’.

Julien’s Daughter – “Barb 217”

Winnipeg’s Julien’s Daughter recently caught our ears with the rhythmic indie rock pulse of “Barb 217.” This one starts out as an angular jam with a fuzzy, bedroom-pop-esque mix… But “Barb” eventually evolves into something dance-y and energetic, before finally slowing down the tempo down to a near-crawl. It’s a unique journey that you don’t expect until the song nears that two-minute-mark, but it’s a truly pleasant surprise once that drop hits. Fans of Alvvays or TOPS will dig this a lot.
