I'd seen this album popping up on online and I kept forgetting to check it out. I'd never heard any of Wet Leg's music but I got another chance to take a listen when I saw their tiny desk surface on YouTube.
I loved the sound right away and decided to check out their latest release:
Title: Moisturizer
Released: July 11th 2025
Label: Domino
Producer: Dan Carey
Tracks: 12
Lineup: Rhian Teasdale (vocals, guitar) and Hester Chambers (guitar). Josh Mobaraki (guitar, keyboards), Ellis Durand (bass) and Henry Holmes (drums).
The entire album feels very cohesive and I can't say there any tracks I have gotten the urge to skip on my various listens. The band has a really great vibe led by Teasdale's vocals with an often fast paced, incredibly catchy rhythm and fun lyrics.
The swing of the album is also quite nice with songs like davina mccall and 11:21 breaking up the faster tracks with some more downtempo sound to highlight Teasdale's voice. The band as a whole also really stands out on every song with their tight timing and instrumentation feeling akin to longer running acts like BadBadNotGood. I'm definitely going to check out their previous releases and if anything I recommend at least checking out their excellent Tiny Desk.
