Single of the Week: “Why December” by Ignoring Olivia

Oh man. This song is HEAVY AF. Like, not just sonically, but the emotional weight of this song is also intense. Vocalist Maya delivers the lyrics with a passionate wail that harkens back to Mia Zapata of The Gits or last year’s Single Of The Weeker Kim Gordon. The band delivers the kind of dark ferocity the reminds me of Babes In Toyland or Pretty On The Inside-era Hole. “Why December” is just a great song, a great recording, and is exactly what I needed to hear this week. 

“Why December” is out in the world in all of the usual places to stream and download. Their debut album SULKUS is out this February. Keep an eye out here for breaking news on what may end up your favorite record of 2022.
