CUM 2 is released on the 14th February 2025
Lili Aslo (Knife Girl) explains the idea behind CUM 2.
“CUM 2 is the afterglow to the intensity of my 2023 album CUM. It consists of unreleased tracks that didn’t land on the original CUM, some remixes, a cover, and a “stripped” version. CUM 2 is my way of closing the CUM chapter of Knife Girl.”
Releasing music under different guises since 2013, 24yr old Lili Aslo (aka Knife Girl) has released 5 EP’s and two albums collecting more than 12 million listeners on various music platforms. Knife Girl’s Metro EP from June 2021 caught the attention of tastemakers all over, further cemented by the OONA EP from November 2021. Knife Girl’s growing reputation as a producer and songwriter of adventurous sonic endeavours replenished with special melodic gifts was merely enhanced by her debut album Uniform released in Sept. 2022. Live shows have grown in stature from solo appearances to sometime seven piece band dynamics with Aslo’s endearing personality shining through. The often chameleon-like nature of Aslo’s music has traversed genres such as bedroom pop, hyperpop, classic indie rock and more in an ever expanding and crafted oeuvre. These releases have garnered everything from Emmy nominations (Finnish Grammy), multiple indie award nominations, national broadcaster YleX’s Breakthrough Artist recognition and Impala’s one’s to watch for 2023. Knife Girl has featured at Wonderland, The Quietus, The Line of Best Fit, BBC Radio 1, Paste Magazine, Gaffa, Crack, The Arts Desk, American Songwriter, Beats per minute, Iggy Mag, God is in the TV and a host of other notable media.
