Darling Gails, the hyperpop duo consisting of Bella Luxury and Jason Diaz, have just unveiled their new album "Gunk".

The album was a collaborative effort entirely conducted online, showcasing their unique long-distance recording process. Bella is the lead producer and vocalist, while Jason handles songwriting, rapping, and band management. The duo first connected on Twitter in 2017, bonded over a shared passion for bubblegum dance pop, and eventually released their debut single "Kuki" in 2021, leading to the creation of "Gunk".

Influenced by a diverse range of artists and genres, Darling Gails blend over-the-top electronic dance pop production with confessional lyrics and unexpected musical shifts. Standout tracks from the album include "Cera", a Spanish-language exploration of co-dependent relationships, "Triangle", a synthpop anthem, and "Empty", a bittersweet reflection on emotional distance in a partnership.

With their boundary-pushing sound and creative collaborations, Darling Gails continue to captivate listeners with their unorthodox approach to hyperpop music. Check out "Gunk" below.
