The category's been going around social media for a bit, but there's even a domain exclusively for Cigarette Mom Rock.

You may not know Wolf Parade, but if you've watched Heated Rivalry, you definitely know their music. Scoring a few key moments in the show, including Scott and Kip's big kiss on ice in episode five, " I'll Believe in Anything" has been on near-constant rotation in the heads of loon lovers since late December, backing everything from TikTok fan edits to sweaty, scream-filled nights at the club.

"The song 'Victim Of Luck' and really the entire album is about the romance of a less than perfect life. It's about dropping the mask of self-consciousness and vanity. It was a long journey for me to get out of my own way and I wanted this song to be a rallying cry for that, better late than never. You can be as much a victim of good luck as bad."

Co-hosted by PinkPantheress, FKA twigs, Kaytranada, Perfume Genius, and Pitchfork editor Mano Sundaresan, the party brimmed with talented artists shaping the future of music.
