Homesick

Lyrics:

I remember your tail lights, and the nondescript conversations, 
Trails of jet engines and walking to my door,
Would you be dead, if I’d said two words more? 

I remember the debris, and your faces lit like a rave,
Patterns of glass reflecting in the crescent moon,
A fine rain dripping down like a wound

And I don’t know what I’d do, if that truck had taken all of you,
I think the moon may disappear
But a fraction of a second kept you here

Well my little brother told me time is stolen,
And the wolves come for everyone,
But I wonder if the wreckage was an omen,
When it’s time, I think I, 
When it's time, I think I 

And I don’t know what I’d do, if that truck had taken all of you,
I think the moon may disappear,
But a fraction of a second,
But a fraction of a second,
Kept you here

Fraction of a Second

Rough Mercy

The Movie

Garvie takes the AI conversation and holds it up to a fun-house mirror with Default, a frenetic pop rock stomper. 

Default opens with a groove-laden, rough and-ready garage rock beat - but that’s far too simple cool for Garvie’s liking. It didn’t take co-producers Garvie and props long to cover this simple canvas in irreverent lyrics, bit-crushed synths and cartoonish SFX (banana peels, anyone?). Default walks a hyperactive tightrope between the extremes of cool minimalism and pure fun, where Queens of the Stone Age’s sense of groove and Metronomy’s production style can be gleamed.

“I like to make music that nods to the past in a fun way whilst sounding modern at the same time.” Garvie explains. “While it’s fairly tongue-in-cheek lyrically, Default is ultimately about feeling obsolete and replace-able in a relationship, which is why it uses quite a lot of computer-based references. It’s also got a lot of parallels with all of the recent developments in AI, which have definitely made me feel like I might be obsolete soon as a human artist!”
