Historical Context

Wet Leg's upcoming album "moisturizer" continues a trend in indie rock that gained momentum in the late 2000s, when bands like Vampire Weekend and Arctic Monkeys revitalized the genre. This resurgence parallels the rise of the DIY music movement, where artists increasingly self-produce and tour independently, reminiscent of the punk ethos of the 1970s, emphasizing authenticity and grassroots connections with fans.
