Copenhagen's Baby In Vain just released "Transcendent," their first new track since their 2016 EP For The Kids. They also kick off a UK tour with PINS today, all dates below.
"Transcendent' is a darkly foreboding introduction to the band's new material capturing "how anxiety consumes you and leaves no room for rational thinking or any other emotions..." Featuring their ice-cool approach to garage-rock, the song is one of the most direct and commanding songs they've released to date. It's the first single from the trio's full-length record due for release later this year on Partisan Records.

Formed while still at school, Lola Hammerich (vocals/guitar), Andrea Thuesen (vocals/guitar) and Benedicte Pierleoni (drums) have grown to become one of Scandinavia's most compelling live acts. On stage they are unpredictable, raw and intense while on record, they continually push the boundaries of whatever genre they experiment with. Despite the minimal set up of just two guitars and drums, Baby In Vain make riff heavy anthems ready to fill stadiums.
"... like a visceral combination of Sleater Kinney, Babes in Toyland, and Queens of the Stone Age with boss-ass results" --Vice Noisey
"...a tightly-wound, post-hardcore song that sounds like someone crawling through the trenches of a depressive episode" --Stereogum
"What might sound steeped in nostalgia is instead breathlessly pointing forwards" --DIY
"Drawing parallels with the White Stripes seems too easy; both swaddle muddy blues riffs in howling distortion without the help of a bassist. To do so, though, would blindly miss Baby in Vain's inventive edge and a more ominous air than Jack White could ever wish for. " --Impose
