Don't Wanna Be Alone

Peer/Stare EP

Dissolve

I was alone 
and you were around
and that's how it started
I laid my face 
down onto your shoulder
You turned your head 
and everything changed

One moment we were friends
Then we were something more
One kiss that never ended
I'm seeing double 
but I know you're the one

Climbing the stairs
up into your room
to lie down on your bed
Funny this morning
we'd never have known
Now we're here in the dark
and I can see

The shape of you, it's new to me
But I think I know you well
I play it out after, over and over
in the back of my mind 
in the back of the taxi home

I was so hurt before
Now I am thankful for
everything you are
Cos you showed me
how it really feels
to be loved

Breakdown

Following their critically acclaimed debut EP ‘You’re Welcome’, Modern Guilt have kicked off 2022 in style by announcing the release of brand new single ‘Joy Control’.

Hailed by tastemakers including John Kennedy (Radio X), praised by This Feeling as one of the ‘Best New Bands’, and championed by the likes of Bobby Gillespie (Primal Scream), Shell Zenner (BBC Radio / Amazing Radio) and Rowena Alice (BBC Radio / Boogaloo Radio / Islington Radio), Modern Guilt “are re-igniting and modernising their era and genre influences in a strong flame of colour” (Listen To Discover).

‘Joy Control’ is the band’s first release following last year’s ‘You’re Welcome’ EP. Produced by long-term collaborator Mikey Buckley, the new single sits somewhere between the sounds of Motown and the New Wave scene of 1970’s New York City. While lyrically it depicts the frustrations of watching an individual, for a multitude of reasons, choose not to become someone you thought they could be.

‘Joy Control’ will be released digitally on Friday 25th February and will be accompanied by an official visualiser.

"Disappear" by Palma Louca

Lyrics:
Thrones, were always made for the chosen,
The kid was born to be golden, now, his heart's made of stone. 
Homes, were never made to be broken,
It's not the life he was hoping for, he's never felt so alone.

And he's building a wall now, of insecurities, he's not the sweet kid that he used to be, he doesn't care anymore.
And he's taking it all now, it helps him with his poetry, spending his days in a woken sleep, he paints his words on the floor.

When it feels likes, there's no meaning, he takes a second to remind himself that he's still got you. 
It's a steel spike, then it feels like, it's all going to disappear. 

There's nothing left that he owns, 
His pockets are empty, he used to think he'd be wealthy now, but he couldn't have known. 
That'd he'd taken it all, now,
He needs it more than food to eat, he needs it every night so he can sleep, he makes his bed on the floor. 

When it feels likes, there's no meaning, he takes a second to remind himself that he's still got you. 
It's a steel spike, then it feels like, it's all going to disappear. 

If it don't make a dollar then it don't make sense,
Live by the mantra 'til you've got no friends,
Live by the mantra 'til you're almost dead,
Live by the mantra 'til it all turns red.

And it seems like he's trying not to lose his mind, now, it feels like he's dying, he just needs a sign in here.

If it don't take you higher then it don't make sense,
Live by the mantra 'til you've got no friends,
Live by the mantra 'til you're almost dead,
Live by the mantra 'til it all turns red.

Now he's feeling so tired that he lying down and he needs peace and quiet so don't make a sound in here.
