About this item

Brighton four-piece Lime Garden return with their self-reckoning second album 'Maybe Not Tonight' So Young Records

'Maybe Not Tonight' unfolds as a full night out, charting the pleasures and perils of partying and impulsive decisions.

Vocalist and guitarist Chloe Howard says: “The album is about a night out, from start to finish. As the night progresses, you’re having a great time, until your ex walks in with someone else. You hate the way you look but rather than going home, you press the big red button and get even more drunk. Eventually, you take yourself home full of melancholy, chaos and anger.”

Following their critically acclaimed 2024 debut 'One More Thing', which captured the raw live energy that earned them slots at festivals including Glastonbury and Green Man, Maybe Not Tonight sees Lime Garden expand their signature “wonk-pop” sound upwards and outwards. The result is their most intoxicating and luminous material to date.

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: Snappy, clattering punk rock grooves and snarling, cleverly written lyrics come together into an album that's geared towards the rock and roll fan, but with glimmers of modern dancefloor-led genres. Brilliantly dynamic, fist-pumping electronic rock.

Laura says: Maybe Not Tonight perfectly captures the euphoria, insecurity, and impulse of a night out - right up until the comedown hits! Its hook-filled, synth-infused rock'n'roll nods to the off-kilter charm of Wet Leg and the neon pulse of CHVRCHES, balancing playful energy with brutal, beautiful honesty.
