A self-proclaimed “multidisciplinary collective,” Dutch group 45ACIDBABIES are back with their 12-track sophomore LP “Paint The World Pink.” As bubbly as it is crunchy, the quartet leans into individuality and nonconformism, which rings true not just lyrically, but production-wise as well. Led by the focal single “Running In2 U” the album lurches from a sharp palette of sounds that includes hallmarks of indie rock, pop, funk, disco, and more. Yeah Yeah Yeahs meets Sky Ferreira, Gwen Stefani meets Beck, Charli XCX meets Silversun Pickups – the comparisons are endless. Just take a listen for yourself.

“‘Running In2 U’ tells the story of a character in a shooting game who is looking for more to life than shooting at the unknown. The character is looking for connection. The sense of community and safety is a recurring theme in the story of 45ACIDBABIES and ‘Paint The World Pink’ in particular.”
