lyrics
Writers block and common cold
A pointless fear of becoming old
With silver strands and stained piano key teeth
And the niggling presence of adolescent football injuries
Buying crap coffee with our names spelt wrong
It's the invigorating taste of tax evasion on our tongue
Too busy chasing targets, to change the way that we're built
Wearing cheap synthetic fibres with unspoken western guilt
First world problems, first world problems
Aimless and passive we have no patience to ever solve them
Decisions in homeware have undue significance
Still suckered by ads that undermine our intelligence
Afraid of the future with false dreams of the past
It's the invented obstacles we cannot surpass
In conflict with colleagues on teamwork retreats
Emotionally distant from friends we barely meet
Hating our neighbours for the youth in their eyes
And their EDM abandon on Wednesday nights
First world problems, first world problems
Aimless and passive we have no patience to ever solve them
Curse the lost lotto tickets, overcharged and underwhelmed
Turn your wants into needs, a bored version of hell
Still wishing with eyelash, lighting church candles
As close to any action as we can handle.
A pointless fear of becoming old
With silver strands and stained piano key teeth
And the niggling presence of adolescent football injuries
Buying crap coffee with our names spelt wrong
It's the invigorating taste of tax evasion on our tongue
Too busy chasing targets, to change the way that we're built
Wearing cheap synthetic fibres with unspoken western guilt
First world problems, first world problems
Aimless and passive we have no patience to ever solve them
Decisions in homeware have undue significance
Still suckered by ads that undermine our intelligence
Afraid of the future with false dreams of the past
It's the invented obstacles we cannot surpass
In conflict with colleagues on teamwork retreats
Emotionally distant from friends we barely meet
Hating our neighbours for the youth in their eyes
And their EDM abandon on Wednesday nights
First world problems, first world problems
Aimless and passive we have no patience to ever solve them
Curse the lost lotto tickets, overcharged and underwhelmed
Turn your wants into needs, a bored version of hell
Still wishing with eyelash, lighting church candles
As close to any action as we can handle.

I liked Desired's self-titled release very much, so had to get "Lovestory" as well, its style feels the closest. Desired must be a fan of the 80ies "Cat's Eye" anime, as tracks 1 and 8 are from its soundtrack.

It’s tough to choose a favorite for this one because I like them all. I think I might choose Come Down because the vocal sample really enhances the mood of the track.

Feels like you just came home and are winding down before bed after a fun summer day.

Irish act Perlee used lockdown time to develop demos into this raw, but lovely collection of tuneful alternative folk songs.
go to album -
Haunting and moody art pop spun from gauzy layers of synth and topped with aching vocals.

The four songs on this EP are smoky and mysterious, wreaths of synth surrounding Kiara NGL’s whispery vocals.
