Big City Life (Vinyl LP)

One listen to Norwegian duo Smerz's new single You Got Time and I Got Money and you'll know why Big City Life is one of our most anticipated albums of 2025. It takes a special pair of musical minds to make stuff this dang dreamy, but also to get enlisted to produce for acts like K-Pop icons NewJeans. Seriously, have a listen. - Flying Out

Norwegian duo Smerz return with Big City Life, their first album since 2021’s Believer, out via Escho. Described by the group as a “collage,” the album balances the intimate and the grand, blending their art-pop instincts with a dreamlike sense of narrative. In the time since Believer, Catharina Stoltenberg and Henriette Motzfeldt have expanded their creative reach, producing for K-pop supergroup NewJeans and releasing collaborative projects under different aliases.
