Hex Frog and the sad steps and starts of "New Year's Milk" (Official Video)

 









"battery, so low, how long ago, I don’t know..."


In a half asleep state and listening to "New Year's Milk" by Hex Frog and it is a lovely place to be. The beat feels half asleep too and it like it is following the plaintive guitar and mournful melodies instead of leading them. 


"Battery, so low How long ago, I don’t know /  I don’t pick up the phone / To the sky I look high up / It has lost all its color / I am here, clear and alone"


There is a sad beauty in the lo-fi synths, acoustic melodies and the sense of being alone and I don't mean physically but emotionally. Maybe this is a song for people who need to revel in sadness from time to time to not feel sad. I am like that. 

"Everything here shrinks / Everything is lost and found / Anything is possible / And nothing is missing / Everything’s the same / Anything is possible / And nothing is missing / Alone I am"

Hey Frog says "I write horror show folk songs and create virtuoso videos" and he that's what he did for "New Year's Milk". Revel in the sadness and wait to be found once again.
