SOFIE ROYER - Young-Girl Forever (with printed lyric insert) - LP - Vinyl [NOV 15]

LP - Black Vinyl with printed lyric insert. 

Young-Girl Forever is the shimmering new electro-pop album by Vienna-based artist Sofie Royer. It follows her 2020 debut, Cult Survivor, and 2022’s Harlequin.

The album paints a bold portrait of how it is to be a female artist today – amid capitalist trappings, existential uncertainties, and constant feeling that you’re out of step with other people your age.

Royer borrowed the term “Young-Girl” from Preliminary Materials for the Theory of a Young-Girl, originally published in French anarchist journal Tiqqun. The book portrays the Young-Girl as a symbol of consumerism under modernity. 

Young-Girl Forever oscillates between optimism and doom – it celebrates the Young-Girl while also rebuking the culture that created her, and so expresses desire for true liberation.
