Loupe's highly anticipated debut album explores coming-of-age subjects both within the songwriting and through collaborations with artists from other disciplines.

"Do You Ever Wonder What Comes Next?" was recorded with producer Arne van Petegem (Moss, Styrofoam) and mixed by Beau Sorenson (Death Cab For Cutie, Sparklehorse). The sessions embodied a renewed mining of ideas within Loupe's established band-driven sound: there is room for playful electronic experiments, such as with the drum computer-driven "Boat Flight". The heady moments in which the band gives full throttle on stage got more depth and control during the recordings. Annemarie’s aerodynamic grooves snake and swerve like a blindfolded gymnast on a tightrope. Lana’s fluid bass safeguards melody and pulse with warmth and wanderlust. Abel's sparkplug playing, meanwhile, can jump from flicker to full-blown pyrotechnics, equally versed in wailing walls of reverbed feedback, frosty post-punk gloom and intricate folk mantras.

If anything drives the band, it's the ‘what’s next?’-part of life’s ever-complicated equation; that constant movement to keep chasing that silver lining beyond the horizon. It’s palpable within the songs themselves, and the band’s ambitions going forward. You can count on Loupe to highlight the spirit, solace and adventure within the restless everyday.

LP comes on orange, slightly marbled vinyl. Big 4-sided inlay w/ lyrics incluced.
