Reception

[edit]

"New Song" was generally well received by critics, but noted for being different from Warpaint's past material. NME described the single as "the poppiest thing [Warpaint has] ever done and probably the catchiest too".[14] The Los Angeles Times called the single a "striking departure" from the band's previous work, but stated the song had "easy-to-memorize lyrics and a happy earworm of a melody".[15] The Guardian called the song a "disco charmer".[1] "New Song" was the band's first single to chart on the Billboard Alternative Songs and Adult Alternative Songs charts, where it peaked at numbers 32 and 14 respectively.[16][17]
