Brooklyn indie pop trio Nation of Language has signed with Sub Pop and released their debut single, "Inept Apollo," showcasing airy vocals and introspective lyrics. The band plans an extensive headlining tour across North America, the UK, and Europe from August to November 2025. Devaney explores themes of work as a coping mechanism in the song, revealing the struggle with imposter syndrome during the creative process. An accompanying music video captures the essence of artistry and self-discovery in a Brooklyn environment, reflecting the band's journey and connection with their art.
"Work is a respite from pain... in moments of despair, we resolve time and time again to dive headfirst into the work as best we can."
"Inept Apollo... pairs bubbling synths with lead singer Ian Richard Devaney's airy vocals, creating a contrast with the inner turmoil expressed in its lyrics."
