Sounds like: Cocteau Twins, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, boygenius

What's so good?

Lately, my affection for lyrics has experienced a resurgence. Specifically, I've developed a newfound admiration for artists who skillfully delve into unique and nuanced aspects of life, vividly capturing them in their music.Andrea de Varona, the frontperson of Fake Dad, has captivated me with her storytelling. Her lyrics, such as:"Every day, I’m breaking downLike a little box,breathe four in four outNot so easy on a Wednesday eveningWhen the rain keeps fallingWe won’t stop fighting at the CineplexUnder neon lightingYou said, “hold it together”But babe, I’m one with the weather"It's a real treat when talented writers have their words take life in the form of music. It's a great kindness too, because it reaches us, the listener, with a little more ease — gently more accessible and ingestible for our restless minds.
