The album cover for Warrior, the third full-length by Brooklyn-based band Air Waves, features a ominous, androgynous figure standing with a bicycle, wearing a gas mask adorned with a daisy.  The remarkable image was taken on April 22nd, 1970 at the inaugural Earth Day celebration in New York City by Nicole Schneit’s dad, Martin Schneit.  Forty-seven years later, artist Em Rooney hand-painted Schneit’s original black & white photo, resulting in an image that radiates with Warrior’s indefatigable spirit, strength, and love.

Like many queer women, Nicole Schneit is a warrior by necessity, fighting for basic rights, dignity, and acceptance.  Such determination in the face of hardship and injustice runs in Schneit’s family; her new album was inspired in part by her mom who was diagnosed with fallopian cancer last year.  As she explains, “The doctor told her she had a fifteen to twenty percent chance, and her response was ‘I’m going to get this mother fucker.’ So the title ‘Warrior’ and the song are about her. After chemotherapy,  surgery, and then more chemotherapy, all the cancer in her body has left and she's currently in remission. I feel like most of the people in my life, including myself, are warriors and have overcome obstacles that seemed impossible to defeat.”

The dignified fighter archetype referenced in the album’s title is explored on each of Warrior’s eleven pieces of bittersweet, empowering indie pop.  According to Schneit the song “Gay Bets”, written after the 2016 election is “about being gay and being proud and open. I was thinking about hate crimes spiking and the current state of the world. My friend Jennifer Moore, who sings on the track, was my partner a long time ago, so I felt like I was writing a fuck you to Trump, for trying to take away queer rights, women's rights, people's rights.”  The song “Tangerine” was inspired by the film of the same name in which two trans women try to make ends meet as prostitutes. This movie, a dark docu-comedy shot in the contrastingly sunny setting of L.A., reflects Schneit’s battle between identity and society via Brooklyn pop rock that swings between the pastel-tinged and the downright melancholic.

On the album’s gorgeous closer “Blue Fire,” (inspired by the Adrienne Rich poem "The Will to Change") Schneit equates her post-presidential-election anxiety to a flame that grows and recedes, as she pleads for herself and listeners to remain calm. Like its namesake, the track burns slowly and brightly into one of the most glowing points on the record, leaving the listener smiling with thoughtful hope.  Warrior’s highlights, and all of the unmissable, satisfying pieces that tie them together show Schneit’s perseverance and resilience through crumbling relationships, personal adversity, and the current political climate, all leading to her most powerful collection of songs to date. Understated, subtly sophisticated, and equally empowering and comforting, Warrior launches Air Waves above the apolitical complacency of too many of the group's contemporaries.  Schneit proudly declares her mission statement: “I want these songs to be heard by people in my queer community, but also by anyone that wants to feels strong, powerful, and included.”

Girl In Red - Summer Depression

i lost all my friends.

LYRICS:
Well, I walk along the train tracks in the middle of summer time
And everything in front of me is dead
From the once green grass to piles of moss and leaves that lie ahead
And I hope that fall never comes but the leaves are turning red

And I think I, I think I'm losing my mind
Every time that, I look outside
Though, it's not like there's nothing cool to see, I feel like I'm in a dream And nothing feels right to me
 
And I hear a song that sounds so sweet it makes me want to cry
It makes me think about the purple sky
That you see behind the trees as you feel a summer breeze that cools You off from the humid day you've had

And every moment, I'll be feeling sad
But by April, I'll be feeling glad
Though, it's not like I never laugh
In the winter, that's a lie
I just miss the sky

One Last Banger

Taking a tire falling in line
Cruel is the love that you leave behind 
But it’s mine
It is mine alone
You love me too alone
Making a life falling in line
Taking my own is taking my time
But it’s mine
It is mine alone
You love me too alone

Violent

Lyrics:

Take me with you and we won’t find our way home 
I can’t stop thinking bout the places we will go 
If you take me babe I promise you a home
In my heart forever ill never let you go 

Down the coast or maybe back to your home 
I dont care where we even go 
If you give me one chance to hold ya close
I promise ill be with ya till forever more

Forvever more 
Forever more 
Forever moreee 

I will love you until I die 
I only got one chance with you until I die 

I will love you until I die 
No one else will love you will love you until you die

Places We Will Go

if we watch the sunset together
will you still love me forever like you said
or will it just be til the morning after?

does your love expire tomorrow
am i overdue or am i overthinking
cos idk what to do

dont you dare
make a fool of me again
dont you dare
leave me hanging once again

i make sure that i talk to you everyday
but it just doesnt seem that you're likely to stay
na na na na

what about the time when we drank those stouts
never really knew what they were all about

stumbling with our feet
i took you home that night
did you at least feel at home in these arms?

dont you dare
tell me that you didnt feel
something in the air was real

i make sure that i talk to you everyday
but it just doesnt seem that you're likely to stay

please tell me i'm wrong, just please tell me i'm wrong
cos i never felt so right with you coming along

May
