Background
"Catch These Fists" was the first new music released by Wet Leg since 2022. It was described as a "late-night rebuke to pickup artists" by Pitchfork.[2] Recalling the evening that inspired the song's lyrics, Rhian Teasdale noted: "Yeah, I was just out with my friends, as is so often the case. And it’s not that the night was a write-off. These situations happen all the time, where you’re very clearly out in a very insular circle, dancing with your friends, being silly, and for that to be obnoxiously interrupted by some person trying to pick you up, it’s a very common occurrence, and very, very obnoxious. I think I’m conditioned to be so polite about things, but that particular night, I was not very polite."[3]
When asked about the song, Rhian Teasdale responded by saying "It was very natural that we would write the second record together".[4]
