"All your cover's been blown / All your secrets known / You can buy a new face / Or try to shelter in place / At the matinee..."
I truly love, adore, am crushing over "Matinee" by Brooklyn based musician, band, collaborative Attics. It is the kind of song that goes down easy, has sonic scenarios floating by, stabs of instrumentation that come in out of the dark and step back to keep hidden and contains relationship deconstructions via a simple, charming, metaphor. There are killer lyrics that feel so relatable (probably to everyone) whether the failing relationship is between lovers, or parent and child or between friends or band mates or via business dealings, "I'm getting sick of standby / Sick of waiting for your reply / It's so hard to be surprised / Living underneath the eagle's eye". There are words that may or may not reference the pandemic, about sheltering in place and one thing is for certain, if there were fractures in your relationship of any kind, they may of opened more during these trying times.

A group of friends who met in summer camp as the house band for a musical about Woodstock 1969, the members of Brooklyn-based Attics have been making music together for decades. In 2013, they released Time Is Falling, their first record as Attics. Since then they have continued to sporadically release music into the digital ether with little pomp and even less circumstance. Drawing inspiration from Brazilian Tropicalia, British Invasion, NYC art rock, and early electronic music, Attics makes music you can sing along to if you don’t mind odd lyrics and the occasional glockenspiel.
