Today (February 3rd) Nia Archives has announced details about the new EP “Bang Ur Head Against Tha Wall”.
The upcoming new work was also announced with another single “Convenience”, which is accompanied by a video shot by Nia Archives and Delphino Productions. It follows from the previous EP sentences, “So Tell Me…” and “Baianá”.
Speaking about the new EP, Archives said: “Sunrise Bang Ur Head Against The Wall” is that feeling when you were in the afterscape and you’re in someone’s kitchen… all these thoughts are racing through your head, the sun is rising. and this is the most disgusting feeling with an element of bliss at the same time.
“All you want is to bang your head against the wall and teleport home. In the EP, I talk broadly about growing up as a person, reaching new levels of maturity, love and loss, rejection, alienation, rise and fall. It’s the most exciting project I’ve ever done, and it’s a window into the future and the kind of artist I want to become. These are six tracks with six different moods, soundtracks to the last chapter of my life.”

Speaking to NME last year about the release of the first single from her EP and projects to date, the Archive said: “I think each of my projects were timestamps of my life,” she explains. “Musically, I’ve just grown up, and I’ve had to grow up since last year. I don’t think I was immature, but I really grew up this year.”
The musician continued: “I don’t consider myself successful, to be honest. I don’t think so, because I’m always thinking about what’s going to happen next. I never want to be satisfied. If I’m happy with what I’m doing, then I don’t have anything I want to work on—I’m always so hungry and ready to do more.”
After the release of her EP “Forbidden Feelingz” in February last year, a month later Archives received the “Best Producer” award at the BandLab NME Awards 2022.
In his welcoming speech, the Archive said: “It doesn’t matter who you are, it doesn’t matter where you come from: you can do whatever you want, and you can make something out of yourself.”
