Buzzy Isle of Wight duo (and Band To Watch) Wet Leg are still a month or so away from releasing their self-titled debut, but today we get another album cut along with a new video: “Angelica” follows “Oh No,” “Too Late Now,” “Wet Dream,” and “Chaise Longue.” The video for “Angelica” is directed by the band and features tons of absurdist dancing from Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers.

Named after Rhian's oldest friend, “Angelica” was recorded in Hester's living room, by bandmate Joshua Mobaraki. A mixture of the absurd (“She brought lasagne to the party”), the sardonic (“I don’t wanna listen to your band”) and social angst (“I look at my feet then I look for the door”), it's a trippy, synth-kissed journey through parties and regrets. "It's laced with disenchantment," Rhian says. "Even though the chorus is 'good times, all the time'. That's just impossible, isn't it?”

The video – self-directed by the band – was shot on the island and is an unbridled record of Rhian and Hester’s friendship complete with high-kicks, fisticuffs, kiss-and-make ups, vast amounts of hair and even more dancing.

[Verse 1]
Angelica was on her way to the party
She doesn’t need to wait for anybody (What-ah)
Knows exactly what’s she’s doin’
I watch as she commands the room (Commands the room)

[Verse 2]
The ambience was overrated at the party
Want to run away before it’s even started
I look at my feet, then I look for the door (The door)
Can’t find my friends, so I just take a bit more
A bit more, a bit more
A bit more, a bit more
A bit more, a bit more
A bit more, a bit more
A bit more

[Pre-Chorus]
And then it all comes to an end
We all go again, go again

[Chorus]
Good times, all the timе
Good times, all the time

[Verse 3]
Angеlica, she brought lasagna to the party
I tried my luck at dancing with everybody
Sometimes life gets hard to deal
I like you, you’ve got sex appeal

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t wanna follow you on the gram
I don’t wanna listen to your band
I don’t know why I haven’t left yet
Don’t want none of this

[Chorus]
Good times, all the time
Good times, all the time
Good times, all the time
Good times, all the time

[Verse 4]
Angelica, she brought her ray-gun to the party
Angelica obliterated everybody
I look at my hands, then I look for the door
Can’t help but feel like I’ve been here before
I don’t know what I’m even doing here
I was told that there would be free beer
I don’t wanna follow you on the gram
I don’t wanna listen to your band

[Pre-Chorus]
And then it all comes to an end
We all go again, go again

[Chorus]
Good times, all the time
Good times, all the time
Good times, all the time
Good times, all the time
Good times, all the time
Good times, all the time
