Illuminati Hotties are back with a new single “Sandwich Sharer,” the first of 2022 that comes just in time for the kick-off of her tour. A driving jammer that pummels away to the tune of grumbling guitars and enraptured drums, the new track is a standalone release that follows last year’s earnestly anxious Let Me Do One More. As with all of Illuminati Hotties‘ tracks, “Sandwich Sharer” is fervent in its breathless attempt to express such intense feelings of intimacy. And those feelings find no better voice in that of Sarah Tudzin, the budding singer/songwriter behind Illuminati Hotties.

Even when “Sandwich Sharer” stops to sway slow, slipping decrescendos and crescendos in quick succession, Illuminati Hotties never stop being so damn enrapturing. It’s in those moments you soak in Tudzin’s lulls as much as her howls. As voraciously expressive as ever Illuminati Hotties nail all the frantic bliss that comes with finding such a someone with whom you can share your most intimate intimacies and sandwiches.
“I was seeking a teammate at a time where I felt swayed by nostalgia for youth as opposed to the reality of the momentum of life,” Tudzin said of the song’s inspiration. “And it feels so good to be close to someone who knows you so well it’s like you finish each others’… sandwiches.”
