Reminiscent both sonically and thematically of The Postal Service and LCD Soundsystem in their recourse to a post-Y2K release of aching pressure, \"Car Freshener Aftershave\" is an apt opening move. Fizzing synths, dial-tone keys and percussive clinks provide the base for Pizzagirl's warped vocals to deliver cutting lyrics. Layers of instrumentation are continuously added through the track, echoing a sense of snowballing resignation, hurtling towards a reconciliatory breaking point. Taking inspiration from within, it can be seen as a call back to the start - 2018's introductory An Extended Player EP fused 1-900-hotline-rock and ambient infomercial electronica into perfect pop pigtails, and \"Car Freshener Aftershave\" borrows some of this sonic palette. But gone is the postmodern absurdism and vapor-wave escapism, the sentiment now is as real and grounded as a 90s dial-up squall.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Pizzagirl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39500365529159,"sku":"41754641","price":19.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/pizzagirl-softcore-mourn","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
