Atomize Us! 04:01
We don't need to know ourselves any more, that's right, isolation makes us wiser that's how we learn to go wild again Just keep me informed, her face is serious Your worry is just the right kind of energy for this company Sadness grows when they atomize us don't hang with strangers they are guilty of spreading harmful ideas And then what else is there to life when the wasteland lies upon us grab your friends and run away Don’t take me back to the virtual slum Now this endless blue screen makes me depressed again Don't you wish hyper-capitalism was only a minor bug in your moral code? Sadness grows when they atomize us don't hang with strangers they are guilty of spreading harmful ideas And then what else is there to life when the wasteland lies upon us grab your friends and run away

Let's accept the resistance As simple thoughts are commodified But in an artificial world It's just what we deserve It was supposed to be two weeks Have you been staring at the wall for too long Now the proles should be rising If they weren't drinking heavily alone Until you lose all your fun You're in the safe space Until you lose your voice Nothing matters Until you take back what's yours They will keep on choking you Until they lose your vote I won't react to the group chat's gossip Stay mindful of the contrarian voice Stop before hit "send" We're both problematic Only you direct your pain inwards Until you lose all your fun You're in the safe space Until you lose your voice Nothing matters Until you take back what's yours They will keep on choking you Until they lose your vote

The excuse factory is working overtime can we ever admit that the future mostly never arrives Utopia is wrecked and we're proud of it I guess Doom-scrollers Watch me slowly breaking down again In this feedback loop Getting in touch Is not our game anymore Until your soul crumbles You cling to the smoke screen of acceptance I never wished you starvation forever Only until each friend is beamed to the sky Would you start again Start again We let it go

Mountain Street drips with oxygen I gave myself permission not to ruminate in the reversed rivers of our tainted history Last night at the taproom lingers heavily in my mind The scientist removed the telescope from its initial position the stars on the map are just bookmarks they mean nothing If I can't go there for real The stars on the map mean nothing to me What's the point if the world is covered in dried lava It was supposed to be our year Drowning in impulses Every destination is buzzing with activity Each rebel ends up in jail please try to think before you speak Pushed my hand to the other side, there's someone just like me I said, the stars on the map are just bookmarks they mean nothing If I can't go there for real The stars on the map mean nothing to me

Departure 02:15
Groups don't change, only brain waves do It's time to leave the underground beehive I chose today to be ordinary But it's hard when you've invested so much In the grand narrative Each summer, the boot will be lifted And the skeptics will slowly crawl back, noting we've changed But stab someone in the pinnacle of the night Doesn't bring your party to a halt Someone call the cops Why do I rather work Towards some intangible goal Then sorting my books I’m shielded from the noise at least My preferred state of mind Still, it would be nice to come together

about

So following the Bandcamp Friday announcement this week, I decided to emerge from my musical hibernation and put out this EP I only assembled yesterday. Even though this collection of five tracks is the remnants of a yet-to-be-released album I’ve been working on since 2020, these tunes are far from leftovers.

The genre exercises on this one are a mixed bag, but picture a musical landscape where The Postal Service collides with the Sly and the Family Stone jamming sci-fi RnB tunes in space, all while embodying the cheap synthetic essence of Stars in Coma circa 2008. Brace yourself for an experience that intertwines in-your-face synthesizers, quirky popping sounds, unconventional chord progressions and yearning lyrics about my favorite theme: alienation!
