Index, formed by former Control Top members Alan Creedon and Alex Lichtenauer, released debut single “Cellophane.” The track is described as a punk battering ram about self-deception and rituals used to convince oneself everything is fine. The group aimed to avoid riff-based writing, instead creating fluid, unstable music that threads through shifting time signatures. They wanted electronic body music physicality filtered through a hardcore framework, balancing precision and control with room-filling impact. Winnipeg dream poppers sundayclub released “Blue Wave” ahead of their self-titled debut in July. The song reflects on early relationship days amid inner turmoil, uncertainty about the future, and escapism in the past for solace.
"Former Control Top members Alan Creedon and Alex Lichtenauer have formed new group Index and have shared their debut single. “Cellophane” is a punk battering ram that they say is “about self-deception and the rituals we perform to convince ourselves we're holding it together. Musically, we wanted to move away from anything riff-based and write in a way that felt fluid and unstable. The two of us function as a single organism, threading through shifting time signatures rather than locking into them.”"
"“We were interested in the physicality of electronic body music pushed through a hardcore framework. Something precise and controlled, but still capable of impact in a room.”"
"Winnipeg dream poppers sundayclub release their self-titled dbut in July, and the new single is “Blue Wave,” “This song reminisces on the early days of a relationship in the midst of inner turmoil and uncertainty over what the future might hold,” they say. “It's about wanting to be a different, better, and more evolved version of yourself despite not being there yet, and seeking escapism in the past as a way to find solace.”"
