Sneaks, a.k.a. Eva Moolchan, will release her new album It’s a Myth on March 31 through Merge Records. Her latest track “Hair Slick Back” evokes unequivocal confrontation with lyrics like “You think you got a lot to say/ No you think you need a bigger stage/ You think I can’t contain my rage/ Let me see you bend your breaks.”

Though it flows from influences like Pylon and Bush Tetras, Sneaks’ music is hard to categorize or compare. It’s jerky and fluid all at once, childlike yet perceptive. Bass and drum machine underpin Moolchan’s compelling vocals, and the music straddles several decades of serious minimalist fun. “The songs came together pretty fast, very tongue-in-cheek,” writes Moolchan of her debut full-length Gymnastics. “I was playing with how we use language and twisting the words of mundane slogans, ads, and repetitive symbols I was seeing while attending school.”

It’s A Myth was recorded by Jonah Takagi and Ex Hex/Helium frontwoman Mary Timony, who recorded the album at Timony’s D.C. studio. Pre-orders are available now on CD, LP, or cassette in the Merge store, or through your digital provider of choice. See Sneaks on tour in the US with Downtown Boys throughout March. All dates below.
