From Drab Majesty's 'Modern Mirror': www.daisrecords.com/collectio...
More from Drab Majesty: found.ee/drabmajesty
Blowing the dust off the antiquarian myth of Ovid’s “Narcissus”, Drab Majesty uses its premise as groundwork for a modern reinterpretation. Each song tells a piece of the story, in which the listener’s own self-identity has become warped and dissociated through rapidly expanding technology, losing touch with the origins of their own personalities. Setting the stage as a romantic saga of antiquity, “A Dialogue” asks the listener if they are truly in love amid a building wash of guitars and reverb. Elements of classic tragedy weigh heavily in the reflection of Modern Mirror in songs like “The Other Side”, possessing a fundamental sound that is energetic, luminous and hopeful. Fusing the sonic aesthetics of predecessors like New Order and The Cure within the cautious instruction of Greek mythology and modern science fiction, Drab Majesty has birthed a hybrid of dreamy malaise, captured for a future moment.
The first single “Ellipsis”, romantically plays up the distorted concept of courting through modern technology in a world that has yet to adapt, while on “Long Division”, Deb’s resounding guitar cascades around the chorus shared with No Joy's Jasamine White-Gluz, wistfully warning us against our vanity and self-obsession. Even when hope for everlasting love peeks through in “Oxytocin”, a sparkling and stoic track sung by Mona D., we are firmly reminded our fleeting existence.
Modern Mirror is a journey of self-reflection, nostalgia, love, beauty, and heartbreak told across eight addictive and emotional synth pop anthems - a seemingly classic tale delivered unblinkingly through the frame of the modern world.
Produced by Josh Eustis (Telefon Tel Aviv) and mastered by Dave Cooley.

I don't think I've ever been so hyped on any musical artist. They took everything I like in music, added their own thing, and delivered the best music I've heard in recent years and ever before. Thank you Drab Majesty. Your work and art is enjoyed and appreciated.

Lyrics: Whenever love starts to control you As it holds you You'll see a sign You shouldn't walk through paradise I can't lobotomize Just apologize In a way that it keeps you 'Cause I need you Duress will show If you will go on Or your love will die To love and die As you order the knife Whatever God says, I came here to find you And to blind you Just to know that I was lost in your Modern eyes Your modern eyes Modern eyes were a maze Invitation where I want you You believe me but you cannot see me Or my mission as to why I lie Two dolls in the dark Danced right from the start In a world alone And I laid there with the walls around me Dead and dreaming on my telephone (And such a long way from home) You came along Stronger than I imagined In fashion We sat alone In the early light Drinking pinkish wine Even every little thought That bound our lips to the clock Seemed to melt in an instant Eyes equidistant And the music played In subtle shades Of gold and beige And I lost you as the sun came out Invitation where I want you You believe me but you cannot see me Or my mission as to why I lie Two dolls in the dark Danced right from the start In a world alone And I laid there with the walls around me Dead and dreaming on my telephone Invitation where I want you You believe me but you cannot see me Or my mission as to why I lie Two dolls in the dark Danced right from the start In a world alone And I laid there with the walls around me Dead and dreaming on my telephone

This one reminds me of the end of Blade Runner - Roy and Pris hiding in the decaying ruins of the Bradbury building, fighting desperately to preserve their lives and humanity against a world trying to drown their consciousness under its bleak oppressiveness. Two characters I deeply connected to when I was young (and often still do).
