Emerging Vienna- based artist FILLY is collaborating with French indie band The Teenagers on their new single and video, “Serious,” out now via Slowplay/Interscope Records/Bamboo Artists.
This release serves as FILLY’s first offering of the new year and marks The Teenagers’ return to releasing new music after over 17 years. “Serious” is built for the club and effortlessly combines FILLY and The Teenagers’ undeniable pop melodies with a hilariously relatable rant about a crush with a twist. It bridges the frantic energy of a late-night confession with the defiant decision to dance all your worries away.
“I’m so excited for ’Serious’ to be my first track to kick off the new year. It’s fun and a heavy bass driven single that gives a sneak peak of what else is to come in 2026 for me! It’s a queer love story with a twist. <33 I feel so excited and honored that The Teenagers hopped on the track> – FILLY
“We recently started making music again after a long break and when FILLY came to us to work together on “Serious” we got super excited. This track is quite electroclash/indie sleaze/nu rave coded – both lyrically and musically, so it felt very appropriate to do a feature and work with our friend on this one” – The Teenagers
This release marks the second entry in a new chapter for FILLY. Known for crafting music that merges hyperpop gloss with the pulse of European club culture, she’s carved out a space that feels equally at home on festival stages and in underground clubs. With more music on the way and a debut album in the works, “Serious” signals exactly what’s to come: an artist embracing individuality, leaning into duality, and bringing her world to every stage she steps onto.
