yeule signs to Ninja Tune and shares new single "sulky baby"
Nat Ćmiel – aka yeule – also announces a string of headline shows in the US and UK.
yeule opens up about the meaning behind the song, sharing: ""sulky baby" was like a 2000s alt-rock shoegaze hybrid tinted in sad satire. I felt like I was talking to a younger version of me, stopping her from crying, looking back at the ways I betrayed and neglected that innocence from myself. I failed to protect her and I felt like I needed to go back in time and fulfill what she was starved of. So that she could return to my side. So that I can smile like a little kid again. The song gives quite vivid descriptions of a depression I felt with almost a burning passion, yet I tried to give it a light-hearted tone. I think romanticizing is not always that bad. It helps to do it sometimes when you're dealing with a repressed memory. I think it is called an advantaged delusion? Sometimes, that's the only way I can remember parts of me I don't want to remember, so that I can lay her to rest and heal. My mother used to tell me as a child, not to sulk all the time. I guess that's why sulking is so special to me."
"sucky baby" is yeule's first release since Glitch Princess – the 2022 album which follows 2019's Serotonin II.
To coincide with the release of the new single, yeule has announced a US and UK tour which includes a London headline date at Outernet on 11 December.
"sucky baby" is out now via Ninja Tune. For more information on yeule's upcoming shows, visit yeule.jp.
