Freak Slug - Out of the Blue

Freak Slug self describes her musical style as “inspired by the 90s, some 60s, and some of now.” The woman behind the moniker, Xenya Genovese, just recently made her way onto our radar, and those influences (she cites early Grimes and Joy Division) are apparent on her new single “Out of the Blue.” It’s a mellow tune with some hazy psychedelic vibes that align with whatever genre you’d classify Mac Demarco and King Krule as. But as we make our way through the rest of her catalogue, it’s clear she’s not following by any known rules or standards as she forges her own path in the music industry. With this being her first release since 2020, we’ll be expecting more lush tunes to vibe to from Freak Slug in the coming months.
