Pet Peeves EP

A Very Sunny Day

Creepy Fingers is a somber, yet up-lifting reflection on the state of modern society. With lyrics like “defend the bourgeois, they’re innocent”, Creepy Fingers is a politically apathetic celebration of normalcy. A timely statement in the age of global-instability (see Trump, Brexit, Climate Change). Kid Mountain reassures us that “nothing will change”.

09 Creepy Fingers

Asc. Scorpio

This song is about our experience in LA last summer. It was our first time out of state as a band to finish some songs off of our recent EP. We had planned on working with an artist who offered to mix our songs and let us crash at his place. The day of the departure he ghosted us without any explanation, we arrived at LAX, with literally no place to stay and from there the inspiration came about.

5 Long Days

Are You a Magician?

"Cool To Be Unhappy" is about a girl I once loved who thought it was cool to be unhappy. Needless to say, it didn't work out.

Cool To Be Unhappy

Thom Gillies, aka @bluematerial returns with latest single Blue Blood. Another uniquely compressed romantic pop song that takes us into the realm of retro trancelike fantasy. The heartening nightspot groove is combined with a strange sense of confusion, mixed with layers of political and environmental tensions. Water rising up makes Blue Blood. An impending and dramatic burn of intense love filled with warning signs. Life on the run is a buildup of mysterious feelings and emotions. Blue Blood comes with unsparing intensity that is reflected within the atmosphere of its inner narrative.

"Emotional R&B"
Written by: Ian Ruhala

Lyrics
You ask for a kiss
While acting so cruel
We’re swimming in bed
Just like it’s a pool
Strangers not strange
Until you know them
The only good reason for you to stay the night
Is to confuse him
But, I ain’t complaining
Emotional R&B’s got me singing
All of these words to you
You plead a case of “willingful blindness”
Dear god is below, our faith is behind this
Strangers so strange
When you notice
The only good reason for you to put him out
Is to condone this
But I ain’t complaining
Emotional R&B’s got me singing
All of these words to you

80'S GIRL

Cautious is a song about desperately wanting people to understand the struggles one might experience within themselves. It’s a call for emotional intelligence in our counterparts and patience when it comes to getting into any sort of relationship with another.
