"Cut my fingers off / And lost some songs / Saw my ex last night / It was alright..."
The sludgy rolling "Breakup Sex" by San Fran's Lofi Legs feels exquisitely dreamy and bohemian. With Pixies-esque guitars and flute sounds that conjure up dancing long standing hippies in Haight Ashbury (that are always a little bit high) the track is so smile inducing and will have you searching for a house party or a Lofi Legs gig. C'mon sex with your ex can be hot and comforting (assuming things left on NOT that a volatile note) and the lyrics say it all:
Cut my fingers off
And lost some songs
Saw my ex last night
It was alright
In a bag of my things
Some mismatched socks pants I don't recognize
And our butt plugs
Once together now apart In separate bags.
That was breakup sex now it's sex with your ex
And lost some songs
Saw my ex last night
It was alright
In a bag of my things
Some mismatched socks pants I don't recognize
And our butt plugs
Once together now apart In separate bags.
That was breakup sex now it's sex with your ex
(Oh my god)
"Breakup Sex" is from Lofi Legs' latest album "TRAGIC MAGIC SEX" and as liner notes reveal is 'a sweetly twisted, deep-fried, organic, anxiety attack that's put thru a distortion pedal. Recorded in the damp mountains above Half Moon Bay. Feedback and flutes harmonize with a few raunchy mantras and self-fulfilling prophecies. All songs were written by Paris Cox-Farr. On this recording, he is joined by English Artist Francesca Horton as well as the ever-so-talented Drummer, Jeff Klien of Arts and Crafts.'
I am digging the sound here, something between freak folk, busker punk, psych rock, post punk. ID rock at it's lo-fi finest.
Paris shares:
"The song breakup sex is about, well, what you’d think! Almost like a magic trick how love can appear or reappear overnight. In this song, I'm recounting the euphoric feeling after heartbreak before you get home to cry. You can listen to this song on your walk of shame home."
"TRAGIC MAGIC SEX" out NOW.
