This EP is the first of what will be a three-part project coming from those songs. Then the idea was to transform traditionally-written songs, mostly played on piano or acoustic guitar, into our indie-electronic style. Lyrically, we wanted to try to capture the kind of social melancholy coming out of the pandemic and the Trump years, but then express that in a hopeful way. Like, life is tough and can be really sad, but even then people are amazing and able to find joy by connecting with each other. Half-Life has multiple meanings as it relates to the EP. It is one of the key lines in Strange New Breed, which has a lot of science-y references. But it also is a way to describe how if you only live in the past or for the future, you miss the present, so essentially it feels like you are only experiencing half your life at any given moment. It’s also about what deep depression feels like. All these missed opportunities, just watching life go by from your bed. Black & White and Rockville are songs about the past. Traffic and Hell’s Kitchen Sink are about living in the moment which is the only time we can experience the full interconnectedness of life, that we are all the same. released October 28, 2022 Written and recorded by Sub Lights Cover photography by Richard "Parlay" Copier at ONEiPhotography Design by Meredith Duncan
