The Copenhagen duo of Jakob Birch and Casper Munns have released a maximalist cover of Grimes\u2019 \u201cDelete Forever\u201d via Crunchy Frog Recordings, featuring collaborator Eir (AKA Sanna) alongside Casper\u2019s own vocals. After a difficult period that saw the band hospitalized for weeks, forced to cancel UK appearances, and halt all writing, this return lands with the kind of emotional weight that only a band who has genuinely fought through something can deliver.<\/p>\n<p>The choice of song carries personal significance. Grimes wrote the original in response to losing six friends to the opioid epidemic, and 100%WET approached the cover with deep reverence for that emotional core. Casper explains the creative pull: \u201cI felt drawn to the atmosphere of the song, because of these raw emotions and feelings of hopelessness, which are carried by an almost naive harmonic progression and uplifting melodies.\u201d He also experimented with a new 12-string guitar tuning, stringing in fifths instead of octaves, giving the chords a massive, expansive quality that pushes the track\u2019s inner turmoil to the point of excess. The result is hypergaze at its most emotionally charged and sonically ambitious.<\/p>\n<p>Formed at Copenhagen\u2019s Rhythmic Music Conservatoire, 100%WET built their debut album from a shared love of drum and bass, hyperpop, and shoegaze, earning praise from KEXP, The Line of Best Fit, Louder Than War, and God Is In The TV, and supporting Primal Scream on their last Copenhagen headline show. \u201cDelete Forever\u201d picks up exactly where that momentum left off, and then pushes further.<\/p>\n<p>Fighting fit and with more packed into 2026 than ever, 100%WET sound like a band with something to prove after the time away. \u201cDelete Forever\u201d is out now via Crunchy Frog Recordings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"100%WET are back, and their return announces itself with real force.
