I spent way too much time assembling Hanna and Jackie’s lines in the first panel. A term I’ve heard recently and find relevant is “accelerationist pop”: SOPHIE, PC Music, Chari XCX, Hannah Diamond, et al… music with a grotesque infantile nature that, in its imitation of a capitalist reality, attempts to look beyond one. Not quite the same as covering pop hits from the 90s, but grappling with the same amused horror at our depleted past and a horizonless future. Eve and Will are a little bit of hope in the fog, finding each other if nothing else.
