Knife Girl announces mini-album Cum 2, shares lead single “Fantasies”Cum 2 is released on the 14th February 2025
Lili Aslo (Knife Girl) explains the idea behind Cum 2 and lead single “Fantasies”
“CUM 2 is the afterglow to the intensity of my 2023 album CUM. It consists of unreleased tracks that didn’t land on the original CUM, some remixes, a cover, and a “stripped” version. CUM 2 is my way of closing the CUM chapter of Knife Girl.
“Fantasies” is a song I started making as something dumb and fun that my (gay) friends could dance to at the club. Like most of the songs from my 2023 album CUM, it’s very influenced by Sophie. This is also one of the first times I’m not producing entirely by myself, as this was co-produced by the lovely Danielle Beatrice and Tareq Tryti.” “Fantasies” is released on the 24th January.

Praise for CUM
‘This is a vulnerable record for her to release, and it will rightfully resonate. Its themes will be familiar to those who’ve been through it.’ The Quietus
“Cum takes over the spaces of sexuality in just over half an hour. Aslo’s music includes an interest in both bedroom and party music, and there is also a clear understanding of creating both. It is largely for this reason that Cum is an entertaining and well-executed album” Helsingin Sanomat
“CUM is a bold and high-level musical way out of a difficult subject. At the same time, it’s a go-to dance album.” 4/5 Kulttuuritoimitus
“Orgasmisk hyperpop” 6/6 Gaffa.se
“Cum-album is a raw, unrestrained and a brave self-reflection of its creator in so many ways that it is a breath-taking experience.” Soundi
“Diversity of sounds, colors and scents in the production of CUM is not only thematically in line with the expression of experiences, emotions and reality of being a human, a transgender one, but an essential and characteristic part of hyperpop. CUM varies and renews those characteristics of Loose microgenre in an exciting and refreshing manner” Totuus
“The focus is on the production, which is dynamic, deliciously crisp and often surprising. The music is hard, electronic and challenging, both in text and sound.” Nöjesguiden
