I’m a bit late to this one, as this album came out much earlier this year. I know about Rosie Tucker thanks to her very, very good 2021 release Sucker Supreme. I am pleased to say that her new release, Utopia Now!, is a suitable follow up and provides us with more of the same 90’s flavored indie rock, with whip-smart lyrics and a litany of “Rosie Tucker”-isms that permeate this very song. Major kudos to her and her collaborators (shout out to Wolfy), they’re consistently delivering albums that sound really, really good.
I don’t have much to say here. I can owe my fandom to Rosie Tucker to Cheekface’s Greg Katz, who promoted Sucker Supreme on Twitter all those years ago, so I consider Rosie Tucker part of the Cheekface extended universe, if such a thing existed.
