Weak Signal – “Wannabe”

They don’t make ’em more entrenched than Brooklyn’s Weak Signal. If there needed to be a flagship band for battered NY rock in 2024, Weak Signal should be at the top of the list. They’re the soul of the underbelly — turning the everyday into bruised brilliance. Every song out of the Signal feels like it’s been a canon classic since college radio spilled out of dorms and onto the roster of every label lookin’. The band’s latest album feels like it’s about to be their moment in the sun, a reckoning for their years grinding out tension hung on hooks. The tension breaks a bit on their first single from the upcoming Fine, letting acoustics push into the picture, but still sitting nicely on a hook that keeps you coming back again and again. “Wannabe” comes on like a sunburn, seeping into the listener with a welcoming glow before leaving it’s ache imprinted for days. The new album, Fine, is out September 20th from 12xU.
