MUNA - about u (2017)

hope this doesn't harsh anyone's mellow, but the choruses of "i know a place" and matchbox twenty's "if you're gone" are eerily similar

Songs are very nice, but the singer's enunciation is strange.

These other songs are just meh, but I really love "I Know A Place" and how it weirdly reminds me of Madonna's "Vogue". Obvious echo: "I know a place where you can get away, they call it dancefloor", plus the first few verses might as well be "look around, everywhere you turn is heartache".

Love this album. Even grown to love the weird enunciation after almost turning off after the first "surproysed" on the first spin through

I’m pretty sure this band is bad but I love them

Love this

This is so good.

New album out June 24. First single is fantastic (and maybe a little HAIM-y?).

The advance tracks are promising an amazing album, but until then, here's their Britney cover from this new gay romcom:

Just learned about this group from a YouTube bass cover. All I know so far is this song, One That Got Away, but it fucking rules.

^^^ this is several months old, btw, but I hadn't seen anyone else talking about it on ilx

This band's name looks like it could stand for Municipal Urban Navigation Authority. Aw man, my Corolla's in the shop so I'll have to catch a MUNA bus to the show tonight.

Saw them supporting Boygenius in the summer and they were fucking great. Need to check out some of their records.

^ Just found this track on the 2023 track nominations list - it’s great!

For those just getting into Muna, this is my favorite track on their last album. riyl stadium-ready country pop anthems

I enjoy their podcast, Gayotic. It's not exclusively about gaiety. It's just like, here's your weekly fun hang with Muna.
