Stereogum expresses admiration for Victoryland, the musical collaboration of Julian McCamman and Dan Howard. Dead Oceans, a prominent indie music label, has now added the duo to its roster. A deluxe edition of Victoryland's debut album, My Heart Is A Room With No Cameras In It, will be released by Dead Oceans in December. This new version includes a bonus track titled "The Ugliest Girl On The Beach."
The song is characterized by its post-Cure alternative rock sound, catchy rhythm, skillful melodies, and a sense of melancholy. McCamman reflects on the lyrics, describing the experience of being enveloped by nature while attempting to find his identity. He remains captivated by these emotions, striving to discover who he is when alone.
A video for the song will be available below. Victoryland's enhanced debut album is set for release on December 11th via Dead Oceans. Pre-order it here.
