Unmarry Me: Lions In Autumn 12"

Unmarry Me is the unholy trinity of Lise Frances (Help She Can't Swim), Jon Slade (Huggy Bear, Snoozers, and Chris Rowley (also Huggy Bear, Adulkt Life). They formed in 2025, so their music currently maps territory between possibility and impossibility, wild confidence and creative uncertainty. It's formative music, still putting itself together as you're listening, which makes it thrilling, unstable, slightly threatening; as though they're stealthily shadowing you as you listen, urging you to notice the new in the way they pull together electronics, beats, loops, soundbeds, spoken voices, sung lungs. Their new five-track EP "Lions In Autumn" reads so clearly; there isn't a step out of place. It's a DIY effort, certainly, anti-rockist in intent, a home-made sound-system jerry-rigged into being by three uncontrollable spirits.
