Bathing Suits
List Pick
September 11, 2026
Leaving us irreversibly changed after their electrifying performance(s) at Green Man Festival, Bathing Suits share an intense new rework of 'I Can Be a Freak' with Mandy, Indiana's Valentine Caulfield. Making total sense, due to their shared passion for the heavier side of experimental dance-punk, Caulfield kindly explains: “I discovered Bathing Suits after meeting Freyja at one of our shows earlier this year, and it was love at first listen. Their music is exciting, provocative, danceable, and - something quite rare for a band so young - they know exactly who they are. When they asked me if I would be open to recording a verse for them, the answer was obviously yes. Little do they know that they are the ones who did me a favour: in ten years, when Bathing Suits are filling up arenas around the world, I can say I loved them before it was cool.” Both deserving of long and fruitful careers, it's a match made in heaven and a dancefloor-ready anthem for the most darkened of avant-garde spaces.
