Lex Walton releases debut EP ‘Ultimate Love Forever’ on Sub Pop
Lex Walton has released her debut EP, ‘Ultimate Love Forever’, via Sub Pop. The Brooklyn-based artist, known for her work as the bassist for Prairie Princess, moves from interpersonal dynamics to broader societal themes in this collection.
Walton’s music is characterized by a confrontational and hyperlexic style that navigates the extremes of hope and despair. Her songwriting utilizes internet-influenced lingo and complex references to address themes of grief, loneliness, and the surveillance of trans individuals. The EP includes tracks that reflect on the collapse of millennial idealism and the complexities of contemporary social movements.
