Fort Not Announce You On Repeat
Swedish outfit Fort Not have been quiet for several years, but they make a bold pop statement with their return today, announcing they’ll release You On Repeat this February. Their sound pulls from a rich history of underground pop artists, combining jangly strummed guitars and light vocal notes to deliver these bright ditties. Since they’re pop focused, the melodies get to shine here, but there’s still some heavy waves of guitar underneath their feet, giving some depth to the track. There’s some Teenage Fanclub in this, but I can also hear similarities to ATH faves Pop Filter in the way the vocals kind of crest and ride atop. Really stoked to hear there’s a new LP, so be sure to get your hands on a copy before February 27th when You On Repeat hits courtesy of Meritorio Records.

Once 2026 hit, the band wasted no time dropping this heavily synthetic banger; the thumping alone got me excited, but then they added some nostalgic “whoa oh” moments throughout to maximize the hooks. Eleni’s performance almost feels like its disco-adjacent, smoky and nearing digitalization, with each line delivered as the groove punches through the roof. Have a little fun with this ditty.
