I Don’t Hear What You Say Anymore
Hands In “The Company”
I have a real weakness for songs like this, which have a recognizable structure and feeling, but are otherwise totally abstracted and incoherent. “The Company” sounds like it ought to be this romantic ballad, something people could slow dance to, but the vocals are so warped by pitch and echo that it’s all just some vague indication of sentiment without any specificity. I’m reasonably sure most of this is sung in English, but it feels more like listening to pop performed in a language where you can only understand a few words here and there. Maybe that is frustrating for some people, but I really like that abstraction and disconnection.
Buy it from Bandcamp.
