Premiere: My Favorite "Second Empire"
I'm pleased as punch today to premiere the brand new languid fever dream of a video for My Favorite's "Second Empire"—the (reinvented) collective's first single in nearly a decade!
The a-side of a 7" single co-released by WIAIWYA and the group's own La Kalsa imprint, "Second Empire" is an apt return—bringing back the glittering melodic melancholy that made us all want to cry in the shadows of the dancefloor in the first place, but as a reinvented band of dreamers, in a changed landscape, with, of course, a saxophone.
If there's any justice in the popworld (hint: there isn't, but), My Favorite's brilliant return won't go unnoticed and the bedroom legacy that began 1994 will finally see the attention it deserves.
The record's two tracks can be streamed over on the My Favorite bandcamp, where you can ALSO buy the 7" (which you should absolutely do post-haste, especially with the long cold nights we have ahead of us).
