Max Clarke — aka Cut Worms — calls himself a “pop essentialist”, taking the concision and timelessness of early rock’n’roll, girl groups, and 1960s pop as inspiration for his music. The Ohio-born, Brooklyn-based artist releases his next album Transmitter imminently: a fourth instance of perfectly pure pop aesthetic, “showcasing the song without too many additional frivolous tricks”.
