Description: | Neues, zweites Album des Pop Producers Liam Brown aka pizzagirl aus Liverpool.
Indem er seine Besessenheit mit Jahrzehnten der Popkultur, Internet-Memes und David Byrne vermischt, liefert Liam Brown weiterhin seinen poplastigen Twilight-Zone-Twist auf Indie, nur mit mehr Klarheit der Richtung. Während die ersten Veröffentlichungen die Karosserie in einer 80er-Jahre-�sthetik versprühten: "Wenn man auf dieses Jahrzehnt zurückblickt, war es wirklich lustig und lebendig. Ich habe einfach versucht, das wieder in das heutige Bewusstsein zu bringen", ist 'softcore mourn' ein bewusster Münzeinwurf. Eine neue Staffel des Pizzagirl-Boxsets. Der hei� erwartete Software-Patch. - Perpetually ensconced in the fault-lines between effervescent humanity and binary technology, pitting maximalist-pop sounds against claustrophobic production, Pizzagirl (aka Liverpool native Liam Brown) delves deeper into the emotional hard-drive on his latest project, Softcore Mourn. Reminiscent both sonically and thematically of The Postal Service and LCD Soundsystem in their recourse to a post-Y2K release of aching pressure, "Car Freshener Aftershave" is an apt opening move. Fizzing synths, dial-tone keys and percussive clinks provide the base for Pizzagirl's warped vocals to deliver cutting lyrics. Layers of instrumentation are continuously added through the track, echoing a sense of snowballing resignation, hurtling towards a reconciliatory breaking point. Taking inspiration from within, it can be seen as a call back to the start - 2018's introductory An Extended Player EP fused 1-900-hotline-rock and ambient infomercial electronica into perfect pop pigtails, and "Car Freshener Aftershave" borrows some of this sonic palette. But gone is the postmodern absurdism and vapor-wave escapism, the sentiment now is as real and grounded as a 90s dial-up squall. |
