The Top 25 Albums Of 2021 (So Far): Teenage Joans - 'Taste Of Me'

Teenage Joans are barely scratching at the doors of adulthood in 2021. The Adelaide duo took out the coveted Unearthed High competition last year with their song Three Leaf Clover, and in doing so cemented themselves as ones to watch out for in the near future.

Just over a year later, the band have dropped their incredible debut EP, Taste Of Me - which indeed offers a splendid sampler to the music of the group. 

It’s an all out, upbeat rock release that is devoid of any implied immaturity by their age. They may be gearing up for a gap year, but the doesn’t mean Teenage Joans don’t work hard. They know what they’re doing, and they do it bloody well.

Celebrating their twanging Aussie indie timbre a la Camp Cope and Courtney Barnett, Taste Of Me is unapologetically fun and immensely enjoyable. A perfect encapsulation of the band themselves.
