‘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 a 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. Eye-catching and unique vinyl artwork with colourful printed lyric insert. Sofie Royer has opened for the likes of LCD Soundsystem, Lana Del Rey and Air. She has previously collaborated with Tory Y Moi, Cola Boyy, Mndsgn, &ME, MISS WORLD, Peanut Butter Wolf and Lewis OfMan and was a founding member of Boiler Room.
