Worldpeace DMT—the London-based musician and visual artist Leo Fincham—ostensibly exists within the same scene as bassvictim and fakemink: artists who take their inspiration from the stylish, sleazy mid-aughts. But on 2025’s The Velvet Underground & Rowan, a collaboration with Rowan Please of the British electropop duo The Femcels, the pair of musicians drew from an unexpected well: hyper-earnest, borderline cheesy indie-pop bands of the 2000s. (The Teenagers, The Boy Least Likely To, and The Moldy Peaches are on the mood board.) On its follow-up, Flowers Powers, Fincham continues his sincere but goofy journey into the heart of cringe, linking up yet again with Please for 11 short, sweet, slightly demented tracks that manage to bridge the gap between ’60s British Invasion, 2000s twee, and then some. That includes warped worship music, a bit of country blues, a helium-voiced ode against surfing, and a manically cheery cover of Joni Mitchell’s “Big Yellow Taxi” with gospel harmonies, cowbell, and a round of applause.
