Again and Again is driven by infectious lead guitars and powerful, driving drums, creating an irresistible soundscape that captivates listeners from the first note. The song's brooding lyrics delve into themes of bad habits and addictive tendencies, offering a profound narrative that resonates on multiple levels.

Jack Ledword Wet Denim’s drummer, shares insight into the creative process behind the track: "At the time of writing this song, I was listening to a lot of Nothing But Thieves, and was very inspired by their drum style and musical narratives. We’d won a free recording session at Auckland’s Parachute Studios and went overtime, working on the tune into the night, heading directly to the airport afterwards for our 6am flight that morning.”

Accompanying the release of Again and Again is a textural, psychedelic animated visualiser created by acclaimed multimedia digital artist EwSplat. The visualiser features the return of Wet Denim’s iconic clay figures, familiar to fans from the band's 2022 debut EP and singles Another Hit and Free. These characters embark on a surreal adventure in a world that isn’t quite what it seems, visually amplifying the song’s lyrical themes and adding a new layer of depth to the listening experience.

Wet Denim are one of the most exciting new bands out of New Zealand. Their single Stuck With You released in February this year, hit #6 on the NZ Hot 20 Singles Chart, received airplay on Radio Hauraki and bNet stations nationwide. In May, Wet Denim played the NZ On Air showcase at Auckland’s Big Fan. The band are currently spending some time in Melbourne cutting their teeth on the live circuit with a successful live residency played throughout June at the iconic Evelyn Hotel.

Wet Denim continues to push boundaries with their innovative sound and captivating visuals, solidifying their place in the music industry. Again and Again is available now on all major streaming platforms.
