Fight Milk - ICU from the 2022 self-released Fight Milk EP.

\\n

Fight Milk is the project of Redmond, Washington-based project of Jackson Leavitt, who has been releasing singles and EPs since 2019 under the name. Influenced highly by campy \\u201880\\u2019s new wave bands like Devo, Fight Milk\\u2019s shows are a multi-disciplinary audiovisual experience made to entertain.

\\n

Our Song of the Day, \\u201cICU,\\u201d comes off of 2022\\u2019s self-titled EP and is a high-energy bop led by tapping synth rhythms and a scorching guitar melody, with Leavitt fusing very real and vulnerable feelings of longing with silly voices and lines that brings to life the absurdity that is longing. \\u201cI wanna see you so bad, it hurts me all of the time /It\'s like when you cut your thumb, and then you heal it with lime,\\u201d sings Leavitt like a long-forgotten Hawthorne Heights track before following with a bridge of, \\u201cRomp around the rink, romp around the rink /Where do you think /Romp around the rink, romp around the rink /Star on the sink.\\u201d

Fight Milk will be competing in this year\\u2019s Sound Off!, a showcase for young artists in the surrounding Seattle area that has helped prior artists like Falon Sierra, Jason McCue, Naked Giants, Manatee Commune, Maiah Manser, and more gain a platform and industry education to bring their music to the mainstream.
