ALBUM REVIEW: Little Hag – Now That’s What I Call Little Hag

Bar/None Records

Released: 23.08.24

Thirteen tracks – unlucky for some, but not for Asbury Park punk rockers Little Hag. They’ve got a triumph of a third album on their hands, chock full of exciting and diverse tunes. Audacious is the only way to describe it, really: in Now That’s What I Call Little Hag they’re thriving on the uncomfortable things and making them sound incredibly, undeniably cool.

The LP makes drastic leaps between sweetness and pure unstoppable grit – with everything from sapphic love songs to anti-capitalist ragefests, a variety of palates will be fed. It’s a celebration of songwriter Avery Mandeville’s delightful range, and features a whopping eight different producers and studios. Fans of opinionated, unflinchingly explicit, female-led punk rock, should jump straight into this one.
