i break my own heart each day
i smash it into pieces
and i wait for those who i love to come save me
and when they don't, i drink poison and sulk all day
it was the way i was made
or do i have choices today?
i'm too tired to make up my mind
i'll ask a witch to put
a spell on my hands to bind them from
reaching out to you
and when it all comes down to details, i'll have faith that maybe you were right
i'll take back all the words that i said and reflect on them
using all of the might of a robot asking kindly to say:
it's okay to be vulnerable as long as it doesn't get in the way of the way
of the way
of the way
of the way

Max Pittet, Chris Thompson
Lost track of these guys for a couple years, then saw the Tiny Desk concert come up in my feed. I've had the album on loop on Spotify since Friday.
This song in particular has been stuck in my head all afternoon. quiksilv26
Playing synthesizer like an amazingly fun new toy, all the features of which he can't wait to explore, Devours sings, in a nice tenor, witty songs as self-lacerating as Morrissey's, without the crappy politics. voxpoptart
The great Cat Temper does it again! 10 more synthpop bangers with titles like “Growls on Film” and “Electric Pawpurrella.” Instant classic. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 11, 2023
A pair of beautifully ghostly songs from this Philly group that set haunting and mysterious melodies amidst drifting rivers of electronics. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 25, 2022
The debut full-length from noted game composer Megan McDuffee is slick and moody electropop with more than a hint of darkness. Plus vocals! Bandcamp New & Notable May 13, 2021
WUT's not to love? Ten amazing tracks with ten amazing videos that came out during Covid?! We are not worthy. This album is so clever and one of my most prized car tapes. kraasika
