Wet Leg’s energy remains high with latest single ‘CPR’

British indie rock group Wet Leg is making a triumphant return with their latest single, “CPR.” This track marks the first release from their upcoming album “moisturizer,” the follow-up to their acclaimed debut in 2021. It is the second single released in anticipation of their sophomore effort, following the energetic “catch these fists.”

The rhythmic foundation of “CPR” is provided by Henry Holmes on drums and Ellis Durand on bass, creating a danceable beat that allows Josh Mobaraki’s guitar work to shine, particularly in the catchy chorus. Hester Chambers adds a touch of excitement with her drum fills and a lively guitar solo in the bridge. Lead vocalist Rhian Teasdale delivers the lyrics with a casual tone, drawing comparisons to the likes of David Byrne and Sting in terms of style and delivery.

The simplicity of the music allows the lyrics to take center stage, painting a picture of a relationship where one person is so infatuated with the other that they are willing to do whatever it takes to please them, often at their own expense. The chorus encapsulates this sentiment with the line, “Put your mouth to mind in your CPR,” suggesting a desire for reciprocity in love and affection.

With “CPR,” Wet Leg proves that they are far from running out of creative steam, setting a high bar for their upcoming album. The release of this single sets a promising tone for the debut of “moisturizer” on July 11th, showcasing the band’s growth and evolution in their sound and storytelling.

Fans of Wet Leg can connect with the band on social media platforms such as Twitter and Instagram to stay updated on their latest releases and updates. As they gear up for the release of “moisturizer,” Wet Leg continues to captivate audiences with their infectious energy and distinct sound that sets them apart in the indie rock scene.
