Hard Times / Bad Trips

Pity Party (Girls Club)

Hazy, tape-warped bedroom pop for the quiet hours. Muffled drum machines and melancholic guitars create a private world of beautiful, low-stakes sadness.

January 2, 2022 · PPGC

A gentle, tape-hiss-soaked exploration of low-stakes loneliness and the comfort found in quiet reflection.

Moments Worth Listening For

The transition from the brief opening vignette of Stuck on U into the steady, muffled groove of In My Head.

The way the guitar melody in 27 (October’s Lullaby) feels like it is physically warping under the weight of the tape hiss.

The vulnerable, unpolished vocal delivery on Why Do I Love You Still? that ends the album on a note of unresolved yearning.
