Point Of No Return

Wasted

The new single ‘Lost Your Lover’ from Comforts is a call to those who are unable to grasp onto the signs of an unhealthy relationship, even when loved ones around you try to show you the bigger picture. 

“The song is about walking away from someone in the middle of the night, with nowhere to go but the streets that surround you. Growing up felt like such a burden to me when I was younger and I just remember the times where I’d just walk around trying to look for answers to why some things didn’t work out or conversations had gone wrong. The song, in essence, is a reflection of those moments.”

‘Lost Your Lover’ is the first release the band will drop from a selection of unreleased tracks yet to come throughout the year. Covering modern relationships, self-discovery and anxiety, in a new fresh take on indie rock. Comforts have set themselves clearly as ones to watch over the next 12 months.

Lost Your Lover

KILLJOY

Another Life (Demo)

My buddy sent me a message at 9:15am on November 26th, 2023. He told me to “write the great Musk album of our time.” Ok.  

I read that weird Walter Issacson book about him and listened to all the interviews for a week or two. The points of him that people have strong opinions about were almost immediately boring. Underneath was how hard it is for him to relate to and communicate with other people. You can have all the money in the world, but you can’t buy that, and it might be more unattainable with the more wealth and notoriety you obtain. That’s probably more human and universal than trying to go to Mars. 

His presence has always felt super visceral to the Bay Area. Even if he’s on the other side of the world warning the IMF about artificial intelligence and dog currency, the Tesla plant off the 880 in Fremont is a purposely monolithic reminder of his grand intentions. Its always been funny to me that the same governing body (Alameda County) that gives me reminders about parking tickets I didn’t pay, and taxes cans of Mountain Dew at the liquor store 100 feet from me, was preventing him from building a rocket to go to Mars during the pandemic. 

So whatever. I tried to write a bunch of stuff about him, but ended up writing about the same loneliness and lack of connection that everyone has experienced at some point in their lives. It’s the same loneliness that humanity might be leaning into as we go toward whatever the future is. I will release the songs that didn’t get used for this record on some Bandcamp Friday. They are mostly rewrites of “Little Deuce Coup” but with lyrics about electric cars and Eugenics. 

The cover art was drawn by Michael Rudolph. It’s a still from a video I saw of a lady hitting 10-G’s in an airplane. The topic of “freedom of speech” kept coming up in everything I read and listened to. The idea itself is intangible, but people talk about it like it has a clear structure and regulations. Like a mathematical theorem. Or a public pool. 

It reminded me of someone experiencing the punishing levels of gravity in a centrifuge. I kept thinking of some guy thumbing away on a cell phone behind protective glass, as a bookish engineer screams “Sir! He’s about to call The Pope a b*tch on Twitter!” Cut to some high ranking military official that looks like Sterling Hayden in “Dr. Strangelove” losing grip of the cigar in his mouth and muttering “oh my god…” 

That is the first time I’ve seen all of that written out, and I regret everything. I regret this entire record. 

Thanks for listening.

Urban Chords

You're doing the right thing
I believe in you
I am proud of you
You have started to begin

Your journey is now
I needed you to heal
I needed you to fix yourself
I've needed you to feel

Now It Is Time
Now It Is Time
I've needed you to believe
You’ve been broken
You have been damaged
Taken advantage of to bleed

You have been manipulated
But I say no more
But I say live
Do it for yourself
Do it for the floor

Now It Is Time
Now It Is Time
Now It Is Time
Now It Is Time

The floor of love
Made your dreams
It's time you rise above
You are going to see

Now It Is Time 
It’s now
I needed you 
To change
It's time you rise above

You’re gonna see

Now It Is Time 
You shine
Shine, shine like the sun
Shine like the one
You are my strength
You are my wisdom
You are my body
You are my kingdom

Now It Is Time
Now It Is Time

The floor of love
Made your dreams
It's time you rise above
You are going to see
Going to see

Now It Is Time 
You shine
Shine like the sun
Shine like the one
You are my strength
You are my wisdom
You are my body
You are my kingdom
Now It Is Time
Now It Is Time
Now It Is Time
Now It Is Time
