They recently wrapped a sold-out UK tour with THUS LOVE, played buzzy showcases at The Alt Escape and Dot To Dot, and earned serious underground hype for&nbsp;<em>Pirouette<\/em>, which arrived earlier this year to critical love from the likes of NME, Stereogum, DIY, and BBC Radio 6 Music. Not bad for a band that only released their first official singles last summer \u2014 the thrilling&nbsp;<em>Oar<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Teething<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With producer Theo Verney (English Teacher, Egyptian Blue, Lime Garden) at the controls, <em>Jude<\/em>&nbsp;pushes deeper into Ain\u2019t\u2019s sonic universe \u2014 where scrappy 90s guitars, gauzy shoegaze haze, and a dash of post-punk tension collide.
