Our Take

Cigarettes After Sex, the ethereal dream-pop outfit led by Greg Gonzalez, have returned with a new 7-inch single, "Affection." The band's signature hazy sound is as intoxicating as ever, with Gonzalez's whispered vocals drifting over lush, atmospheric instrumentation that feels like a warm embrace on a cold night.

On the A-side, "Affection" is a slow-burning ballad that shimmers with melancholic beauty. The haunting refrain of "I show some affection, love" lingers long after the song fades into the ether, leaving listeners longing for more. The B-side, "Heavenly," is equally enchanting, with its delicate guitar riffs and hypnotic rhythm creating a sense of otherworldly bliss.

Cigarettes After Sex have mastered the art of crafting music that feels both intimate and expansive, drawing listeners into their dreamy sonic world with each note. "Affection" is yet another example of their unparalleled ability to capture the essence of longing and desire in a way that feels both timeless and contemporary.

Overall, "Affection" is a must-listen for fans of Cigarettes After Sex, as well as anyone looking for a soundtrack to their late-night reveries. With this single, Gonzalez and co. continue to solidify their status as one of the most captivating bands in the dream-pop genre. So grab a glass of wine, dim the lights, and let Cigarettes After Sex sweep you off your feet once again.
