    On April 13th, we put out a new record we called Worst New Music, mostly because it fucking sucks, and we wanted to tell you that first. But also it’s because the idea of Music Taste is a late capitalist branding tool that only stands to benefit tech companies and major labels. Music criticism, as much as it even still exists in 2018, is a vehicle for ads for alcohol brands owned by InBev more often than it is anything else. (Also, hello, InBev if you’re reading this, we would love to discuss the possibility of a more direct sponsorship opportunity.)

    Anyway, behind that real firebrand of a title are more moving, endearing, and occasionally upsetting songs about, like, the exhausting burden of living under capitalism, post-millennial rot, and the ways mental health can affect both individuals and relationships. There’s still jokes and stuff, so it’s not that serious. But it kinda is.

lyrics

I don’t know anyone who knew you
So I don’t know how to talk about you
Hear me, why don’t you hear me?
I keep yelling until my ears bleed
And I keep screaming until I can’t speak
Kill me, why won’t you kill me?

How to walk through that house again?

When you won’t be at the kitchen table
Eating dinner, miserable
Coming home late from a job you hate
When you won’t burst right into my bedroom
Fourteen outfits, a new perfume
A fight you lose ‘cause you could never choose

What I’d give to run up the hill and lay by the water that
Jesus would have walked on as we breathed in the whole world and breathed out ourselves
I am, I am, I am alone
