Friends Unseen - Drowning Act
Музыка
Swedish band from Umeå. They recorded this unique 7" in 1998 at Subjugation Records, a small label which existed until 2002 and released bands such as Spy Versus Spy and Tribute. The sound of Friends Unseen is defined by warm harmonies of guitars and indie pop melodies adorned with female vocal. Frinds Unseen sound similarly to such bands as Pohgoh and The Pennikurvers.
Only two songs, clearly different, truly lost jewel of the 90's.

discovering hidden gems when it's past midnight is like catching a glimpse of your soul and also it makes you feel special and yet connected to all those who found it, to some treasure can be gold or idk but to me treasure is a song that makes me feel special and lonely yet connected to all those strangers who may share the same feelings as me. (my english is bad all i wanna say is i love u all strangers stay strong :)

You perfectly articulated the feeling
For anyone else wondering about the cover art: It's from Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana. As a way of protesting officials, Emile Riche painted his shack with details of his various grievances. His house was also damaged in the Missisipi flood of 1927 so he asked for compensation. If you look up online there are a bunch of photos of him and the shack

Somehow ended up in this 90s unknown emo bands rabbit hole. Man am I so happy to have discovered this. There is something about hearing good songs for the first time. Nothing like that feeling, knowing I get to listen to this for the rest of my life.
The youtube algo has been busting out the heavy hitters lately
People listening to this in ,23 give me hope for the future

It's going to be hard, help is not coming and it is just us. We'll make it, though. Just don't stop. Don't ever stop.
You're drowning me again and legs go off, I’m falling. You fear me when I talk and leaving this room again Don't let me down -I say- Your eyes are closed and your hand still shake your breath is in my face my heart is bruised by a whiskey stains you are drifting you're so easily drifting still your hands are full of wishes you're drifting and you're listening and you're telling me my wishes or all because i'm drifting is this how you say you're leaving and all is turned to wishes you let me down again is tearing by a word apart but your face that looks the same when times were good between your whiskey stains you are drifting you're so easily drifting still your hands are full of wishes you're drifting and you're listening and you are telling me my wishes or all beacause i'm drifting So I try not to love you cause it's closer to sometimes I, I still love you cause it's closer to sometimes I, I still love you but it's closer to sometimes

I think she says "bruised by whiskey stains" rather than "boost by whiskey stains"

I just got this song in my recommendations on a day where life feels... empty. It's a hard thing to fully articulate... but this song fills me with a sense of comfort and hope I needed today. I was here before 100K views on this wonderful song.

The singer sounds like Lea Jaffe and I'm here for it. Similar vibe to Duvet by Bôa. Had it on loop the whole day, definitely a vibe
I Love it
I am listening to this in 2123
This is really good. Definitely throwing this on a few playlists and checking out the rest of their material. This gave me butterflies that i only get from either other music, an amazing anime/show or a great movie.
I love it!
duvets melancholy and under appreciated twin
So in love with the track
