Meg Remy’s eighth album as experimental pop project US Girls still showcases her artistic evolution, delivering a forward-looking album that fuses retro funk, honeyed R&B, and disco-house. Remy’s aggressively optimistic demeanour shines through, exploring themes of existentialism, urban flight, and motherhood. The album’s glossy amalgamation of vibrant colours and catchy grooves will inspire you to move to the rhythm before it exposes its deeper significance.
