The world needs more weirdos to stay weird, and Aldous Harding is holding it down. The New Zealand folk singer-songwriter’s music is a bit unsettling—not in a spooky way, but like her songs and voice might rip open the fabric of time. “The Barrel” off third album Designer is an absolute banger, with the accompanying music video featuring Harding dressed like a Hieronymus Bosch figure, moving like a puppet on-screen. She sings about showing the ferret to the egg. It’s genius and strange and makes me feel like perhaps I’ve witnessed a spell being cast. More of this, please! by Jas Keimig
