Recorded over a period of emotional turbulence where we lost loved ones and uncertainty seemed the only constant. Our studio became a hide away, a place of refuge where we could direct our energies into a creative act of understanding and hope. We reconfigured our subversive pop to fit our present situation, the distortion was dialled back, the gauzy tape worn ambiguity was replaced by a more in focus directness. Every song was stripped back to it's essential elements revealing a newfound complexity in our song writing and arrangement. Our devotion to the power of pop has not diminished, we still hold firm that it is a subversive medium to communicate ideas outside of the conventional messages of love and other frivolities. It still has the power to bring people together around a shared vision of how things could be. We are happy to present these ten missives of post-industrial romance, existential melancholy, new beginnings, songs that linger in the half-light of '80's synth-pop, 90's trip-hop and electronica. It's not all that heavy, this one is for the slow dancers and the close dancers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"The Mistys","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40328551432263,"sku":"43947300","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/4267151-3073293.jpg?v=1711816991","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/mistys-detached-engagement","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
