IT’S A “NEW” VERSION OF THE IS THIS WHAT I LOOK LIKE? EPIt’s bonus EP time for Sydney’s Yours Truly.
Today, the band unveiled an entirely new version of its recent EP is this what i look like? entitled is this what i lofi?. It’s a blissed-out, and, well, lo-fi reimagining of the original’s seven tracks.
In between dropping is this what i look like? back in July to touring America, Canada, Europe and the UK, and currently charming audiences around the country for their Australian headline tour, is this what i lofi? offers a chilled, crystalline, and utterly immersive experience. It showcases the band’s original songs in a whole new light, as well as the quartet’s own listening habits when gaming in their rare downtime.
“After working on an interactive game for our EP is this what i look like?, we wanted to add lo-fi versions of all our songs to the game as we all like to listen to chill lo-fi playlists while we game,” explain the band of the origins behind is this what i lofi?. “After hearing the tracks, we all thought, ‘This needs to come out as a whole EP release,’ and that was how is this what i lofi? came to be! People can listen to the original tracks to be hyped, but if they want something a little more chill, we have these versions now.”
From Yours Truly’s recent release of a virtual online gaming experience to accompany is this what i look like? to vocalist Mikaila Delgado featuring on the Bayonetta 3 video game soundtrack in October, is this what i lofi? is a fitting addition to a year of game-adjacent highs and overall innovative exploration for Yours Truly.
The band supported I Prevail and Pierce The Veil across America earlier this year — with sold-out headline dates in the UK also in their 2022 wake. Yours Truly are closing out the year with five shows left for their current Aussie headline tour, including a sold-out show taking place tonight at Mojo’s in Fremantle. The band are also primed to unforgettably leap into the new year ahead, with a European run supporting You Me At Six locked and loaded for late February and early March, before leaping into a six-date UK headline tour with special guests South Arcade and Lizzy Farrall.
