S ND Y P RL RS: “American Girls”.
December 5, 2011, 0 comments
All these American girls and their American lies
They keep you up at night, they always steal the night
Their cats and their moms and dads
Keep waiting on the other side
All these American girls, they never stay for a while
And all the drinking every night
And all these American girls and their harmless pride
They make you never want to try, it makes you never want to try
Now while I don’t know any of the circumstances that might explain such outright bitterness, I love the slow, hopeless mourning that is the distinctly lo-fi pop song “American Girls” by Malte C. Jantzen’s one-man project S ND Y P RL RS, devastatingly expressing a profound forlornness that I guess we’ve all already felt at least once in our life (no matter where the girl or boy actually came from).
S ND Y P RL RS is part of the New Wedding Avant-Garde artist collective (Wedding as in the district and not the custom, I presume), and “American Girls” appears on S ND Y P RL RS’ beautiful cassette Bring Death To S ND Y P RL RS, which may be streamed in full right here and ordered here. Limited edition of 100.
In related news, on January 5, 2012, S ND Y P RL RS is going to perform at Berlin Mitte’s Schokoladen.
