about

“You are the receiver, you get the message”. You send out a signal and hope that it reaches someone - it’s a dystopian sci-fi electro-pop love song.

lyrics

I could tell that something was wrong
All upside-down inside-out
I couldn’t move and I couldn’t speak
Lying face down in the crowd
I won’t be found

You are the receiver you get the message
And I can be so sure you’re still around
You are the receiver you get the message
I need to be so sure you’re still around

"…the band's 2017 debut is full of punk and early' 80s post-punk references (there's the Marine Girls again) and filled to the brim with straight-up reverbed and jangly guitar indie-pop - which isn't complicated by too many chord changes - rib-crunching percussion and a healthy dose of psychedelic keyboards which add a touch of artiness… Add lashings of glorious harmonies and what's not to like here? ¡Magnífico!" https://reclaimingthecolonies-onestateatatime.blogspot.com steveinsocal

Misplaced Words
by Jetstream Pony

This is an unbiased review. That being said...I fell in love with Beth Arzy's voice the first time I listened to Aberdeen. I could listen to Beth sing the instruction manual for a dishwasher. But I'm grateful she's surrounded by talented and totally capable band mates instead. I'd rate Misplaced Words 4.6 out of 5. And had a devil of a time picking a favorite track. Tomorrow I might pick a different one as they're all very good. My biggest complaint is the album is over way too quick. CEF121
