Lany – gg bb xx (Ltd Edn White Vinyl LP)

Lany’s fourth album, gg bb xx, changes gears for Paul Klein, Jake Goss and Les Priest. It focuses on what Klein describes as micro-moments: flashes we experience that come n’ go in the blink of an eye. Nowhere is that spontaneity more evident than in the album’s title (you pronounce it ‘gg’ as in Hadid, ‘bb’ as in Rexha, and ‘xx’ as in, well, The xx). “I wanted a title that had no pretense,” Paul explains. “Whatever the song feels like to you, that’s what the title means.” gg bb xx finds Lany returning to their infectious pop sound, collaborating with an array of notable songwriters and producers including Andrew Goldstein (Maroon 5, Katy Perry, Lauv), John Ryan (Shawn Mendes, Charlie Puth, Harry Styles), David Hodges (Ed Sheeran, 5SOS, Blink 182), Tobias Jesso Jr. (Adele, Sia, HAIM), Dan Smyers of Dan + Shay and more. Uproxx noted that lead single “Dancing in the Kitchen” – “showcases the group’s knack for penning relatable pop tunes, emphasizing the importance of enjoying life’s little moments over a joyous beat.”
