Everything Is Forgotten, the second Methyl Ethel album, came out on 4AD in March 2017, and it's a reminder that this Perth art-rock outfit is, on record, really one man: Jake Webb, who makes the albums as a solo project and brings in a band only for the stage. You can hear a single restless mind at work, stacking up nervy, shimmering art-pop that's catchy and unsettled at the same time, sweet on the surface and slightly off-kilter underneath.
"Ubu" is the one that broke loose, a twitchy, insistent earworm that Triple J's listeners carried deep into their Hottest 100. The album reached number 16 on the ARIA chart, picked up a J Award nomination for Australian Album of the Year, and took Best Album at the 2017 West Australian Music Industry Awards.
