♫♪  18+ - “Sour”

After dominating TMT for years with a slew of videos and mixtapes, the once-“enigmatic” entity known as 18+ finally revealed their identities in 2014, a shift that made them both more public and, in some ways, “much more private.” As they explained in an interview with Simon Chandler, “We’ve instinctively begun integrating our own bodies and our own lives into the visual elements of 18+… It’s almost as if we are now the avatars, and 18+ is the user, which has been and continues to be a very surreal reversal.”

18+ were active in 2015 with live shows, remix projects, and more, but they were relatively quiet on the new music front. But today, the duo of Justin Swinburne and Samia Mirza took to SoundCloud to release a fantastic new track called “Sour,” which you can check out below.

18+ are expected to release the follow-up to 2014’s Trust this year on Houndstooth, which recently announced a celebratory label comp that features another new 18+ track, “Guards.”
