“I unabashedly love pop music,” explains Fine Times singer Matthew Moldowan. “I couldn’t consider doing anything else.”

This, in a nutshell, explains the Vancouver duo’s reason for being. Longtime friends Moldowan and bassist Jeffrey Josiah Powell have been striving to achieve pop perfection since founding Fine Times in 2010. Their self-titled album came out on Light Organ Records in 2012, charting nationally on !earshot’s campus radio charts and earning nominations at the 2013 Indie Awards and the 2013 Western Canadian Music Awards.

Now, Fine Times has upped its game with a hook-filled batch of songs recorded with The Zolas' Tom Dobrzanski at his Monarch Studios. With mixing by Dave Bascombe (Charli XCX, Depeche Mode), the songs blend ebullient melodies with an undercurrent of lyrical darkness, seamlessly incorporating synth-spiked new wave, bass-blasted industrial pop and bubbly dance-rock.

“We really wanted to get the songs as short as possible,” Moldowan says. “Those are the kind of pop songs that I like. Get in, get out.”

Lyrics:
Ainslie
Chirps like a bird
Howls when she’s hurt
Speaks to me stern
Teaches me words
Thrives in the dirt
Spills her red wine
Ruins my shirts
Bloodies my nose
Lips like a rose

Somewhere to go

When I’m low

Ainslie
Magical mouth
Sleeps on the couch
Gone somewhere else
Comes in and out
Whistles me tunes
Sings me the blues

Misses her youth
Drinks 80 proof

When she’s blue
And I’m low
‘cause she’s hot
And cold
‘cause I’m young
And she’s old
And I’m buying
And she’s sold

LYRICS

I woke up
Swayin'
On the ocean
Somewhere off the coast
I was laughing
You were joking
The first to go and boast

Something expensive
Something pretentious
Oh
Best not to question
How did you get that gold

The less I know
The less I know the better
Ever since I met ya
The more I wanna let you love me
Love me
Don’t wanna know
Don’t even gotta mention
How you got your mansion
It’s okay just come and love me
Love me

I wake up
You’re making me breakfast
My place fits in this room
We in Brentwood or in Venice?
I’m getting used to

Something expensive
Something pretentious
Oh
Best not to question
How do you make that dough

Solipsism
