We are perfect strangers
Synthesized celluloid danger
Victims of a new regime
Got to keep our fingernails clean
We are perfect strangers
Ignoring signs of danger
Spare parts in the work machine
Got to keep our records real clean
We went to the shopping mall
Just so we could have it all
It’s never enough - It’s never enough - It’s never enough - It’s never enough
We are perfect strangers
Synthesized celluloid danger
Victims of a new regime
Got to keep our fingernails clean
We are perfect strangers
Ignoring signs of danger
Spare parts in the work machine
Got to keep our records real clean
We went to the shopping mall
Just so we could have it all
It’s never enough - It’s never enough - It’s never enough - It’s never enough
We are perfectly Strange

Layering guitars and saxes over synths and drum machines, this Oakland duo's darkwave is as melodically potent as it is texturally rich. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 1, 2024
