UNMASTERED, NOT THE SET TRACKLIST, UNOFFICIAL ALBUM COVER, OPEN TO TALK!


Eric Pasquereau  seamlessly blends the familiar with the unconventional, moving from minimalist, essential tracks to complex, intricate textures. His sound has evolved into a confident embrace of its own ambiguity.

Lyrically, the album grapples with weighty themes, balancing vivid imagery with an ironic detachment that reveals a deep preoccupation with power, resentment, kinship, and time—each element existing in a steady yet subtle disruption. Politics often lingers in the background of Pasquereau’s work; his devotion to art never isolates him in an ivory tower, keeping his gaze firmly grounded.

The Love Handles is a collection of contradictions—both restrained and impulsive, controlled yet wandering. These 10 bedroom pop confessions are marked by a raw, unfiltered honesty. Each song unfolds with a dynamic ebb and flow, its melodies intertwining with layers of mellotron, charango, makeshift percussion, and field recordings, creating a sound that feels both intimate and expansive.
