Drab Majesty - "The Other Side" (Official Audio)
Музыка
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.

Because Taylor Swift & Ed Sheeran are this generation's icons, and have even roped in some older gen listeners. The best music you'll ever hear is n o t on Top 40s radio.
Depeche Mode meets the Cocteau Twins - gorgeous!!!

That’s why people need to stop saying stupid things like “the 80s called, they want their sound back”. Good music shouldn’t become dated.

Favorite album of 2019.
My heart bleeds your melodies. Come back to Argentina!
The Other Side es una deliciosa inmersión en un océano de melancolía enmascarada como música oscura y elegante. Drab Majesty nos arrastra con su aura enigmática hacia una experiencia sonora que se debate entre lo sombrío y lo magnético, como si estuviéramos danzando con la muerte en una fiesta post-apocalíptica. La voz etérea del cantante se desliza entre las capas de sintetizadores, creando una sensación de melancolía melódica. Las letras nos invitan a explorar los recovecos más oscuros de nuestra existencia y a abrazar los aspectos más sombríos de nuestra naturaleza humana, todo ello en un tono que combina la seriedad de un filósofo con el humor irónico de un observador astuto.
hands down the best band out of the 2010s
Jesus thats good... crazy talent and ears for perfect synth sound
This album lacks for being a bit short. 'The Demonstration' remains my favourite but 'Modern Mirror' stands on its own as a very solid release, these guys are fabulous.
Lyrics to the Best track on the new Album: You kept to yourself I couldn't find you A sign of the times Because you walked the line I'm over the act I couldn't tempt you I numbed my brain As you unclogged the drain Now run it [Verse 2] You're still haunting me It sounds unfounded Although it's apathy What goes around you see Breaks the boundaries You Walk with a smile And it's all just a style Since you put me on trial today [Chorus] Why should I just walk away For you to come around another day? Waiting for the time we will collide When I meet you on the other side [Verse 3] Ships in the night Right in front of me Accepted your slight Though your answer was trite I reached for the phone But couldn't vent to you I numbed my brain As you unclogged the drain Now run it [Verse 4] We're losing our honesty Yet my virtue's not promising And I thought you were harnessing Your God-given artistry Your God-given artistry [Chorus] Why should I just walk away For you to come around another day? Waiting for the time we will collide When I meet you on the other side Why should I just walk away For you to come around another day? Keep you in the side of my eye It may be on On the other side [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] Why should I just walk away For you to come around another day? Waiting for the time we will collide When I meet you on the other side Why should I just walk away For you to come around another day? Keep you in the side of my eye It may be on On the other side [Outro] When you find yourself Inside a living hell The moment always lies And when you find yourself Inside a living hell The moment never dies
Wowwwww....this is a fantastic song. I hear The Cure and Duran Duran but it's not the same as those bands. HOW did I not find this band a long time ago!? Better late than never. COME TO AUSTIN...club: Elysium.

I'm a child of the 80s and yes I hear duran duran...the drab kills it.
was never really into this type of electronic music in its heyday, but now for some reason it resonates with me and ticks off all of the nostalgia points. drab majesty nails it, every time. so glad I found these guys.
WHY ALBUM IS SO SHOOOORT?!!!

I've seen that specific guitar sound/vibe characterized/ described as "Spangly Guitar" in a list that was naming off all the major components of the Gothic Rock genre. Sisters of Mercy, Fields of the Nephilim, Siouxsie & the Banshees, etc are no strangers to the sound
5:31 holy shit needs to be its own song !
This is a badass track my bros! just sticks to the soul like some wet messy bbq ribs ^o^
Damn!!! what a cool song!!!
Sublime
Their Space-Wave really haz my heart!
Absolute banger!
Love me some modern 80s
This song really puts on the vibe
Underrated, this song absolutely bangs
Incredible!!

Best song
Great song.And it sounds great live.Saw them live in Austin,that opening bass on the keyboards almost started an earthquake.Great show.
