Bloodboy - Punk Adjacent (2019)

Somewhere along the line over the past 12 months, California’s own Bloodboy had a major realization: It’s not very punk rock — er, punk adjacent — to twiddle your thumbs and wait for instructions on releasing your debut album.

Once the the Los Angeles-based singer had compiled what would become Punk Adjacent, the artist also known as Lexie Papilion found herself putting her music release on pause as she mulled over where to go next, sitting on the tunes for her first full-length project for over a year.
