Suki Waterhouse—quite literally mother—has returned with news of her second collection of mellow alt-pop following her 2022 debut I Can’t Let Go. The actress/musician will unleash Memoir of a Sparklemuffin on September 13 via Sub Pop after gaining traction on the festival circuit over the past two years.
In the meantime, Waterhouse has shared the record’s first single in the form of “Supersad,” a polished garage-rock anthem merging scuzzy guitars with the singer’s soaring and, well, at least a little bit sad vocals. “I tried to write a ’90s song you could hear playing at the mall in Clueless or as an opening track for Legally Blonde,” she shared upon the track’s release. Honestly? I could see a virgin learning to drive to this.
The track also arrives with a music video that embraces those vibes equally well. Check it out below, and pre-order the record here.
