The set was collaborated with producer Arun Bali, and each of these vibrant tracks feature a guest artist\/friend of the band. On the key song of \u201cCocaine &amp; Lexapro\u201d that features Kevin Devine, frontman and guitarist Dylan Slocum shared, \u201cI\u2019ve been trying to work with Kevin for a while now. We have a good number of mutual friends but had never met up until this. The reasoning was simple \u2014 our band doesn\u2019t exist without Kevin Devine, so when he agreed to sing on a song, he got to sing on a song. He took what I had demoed as an angry, contrarian second verse and turned it into something delicate and full of pathos. It absolutely floored me the first time I heard his vocal tracks dropped in.\u201d By working with four great artists on this EP, Spanish Love Songs reinvigorate their passion for writing songs filled with uncertainty in the days that lie ahead of us, but with a beating heart of hope that things can and will get better.<\/p>\n<p> <span id=\"more-62235\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\u201dLifers Too\u201d kicks off the record in an upbeat manner with a nice, driving tempo, paired with a solid bass line from Trevor Dietrich that accelerates to the finish line with some well-placed synths and smooth production. The reflective second verse of, \u201cIn a TV-family home from 1963 \/ There\u2019s marks on the floor from beds where kids used to sleep \/ But then those kids grew up to give us a world on the brink \/ And they don\u2019t feel guilty for us, so why do I worry all the time?\u201d is easy to connect with in today\u2019s environment, and showcases Spanish Love Songs ability to convey a wide range of thoughts and emotions in their music. The song features a great guest vocal spot from The Wonder Years\u2019 Dan Campbell, and sets the EP on the right course.<\/p>\n<p>The single of \u201cCocaine &amp; Lexapro\u201d features a memorable refrain of, \u201cYou said a problem\u2019s not a problem till you call it by name \/ Pilot\u2019s still a pilot till he crashes the plane \/ I have the self-control of a universe expanding \/ Who gives a fuck about landing?\u201d and solidifies the feelings of dread that can come from facing the unknown. The guitar-driven song is drenched with reflective lyrics and paired with tight musicianship from the band. \u201cHeavenhead\u201d features Illuminati Hotties and is largely built around some thick synths to get the mood of the track just right. The guest verse of, \u201cHolding onto your hand \/ Said I ain\u2019t died young, so I guess I\u2019m no good \/ Yeah, my dad gave me a good life, and I wasted everything I could \/ You said the pain will find me \/ \u2018Cause my head don\u2019t fit its socket right \/ Why waste my time with changing? \/ Baby, that shit\u2019s overrated,\u201d helps with balancing out the song that plays out like a narrative between two people clinging to their last glimmers of hope.<\/p>\n<p>The EP closer of \u201cBerlin\u201d features Tigers Jaw and has no problem with brooding in the darkest of thoughts over some vibrant synths\/keyboards to evoke just the right emotions. I found the bridge of, \u201cThey\u2019ll call you brave \/ But they don\u2019t know one thing about bravery \/ You spend too long feeling safe \/ And that\u2019s when they get you \/ Oh, that\u2019s when they get you,\u201d to be very insightful and made me think of the recent horrific news cycles of people being taken away from their families by this heartless administration. There\u2019s something special about the way that Spanish Love Songs can make sense of the insanity that is filled in this cold world, and there\u2019s definitely still a place for this music in our rotations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source chorus.fm \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest taste of music from Spanish Love Songs, called A Brief Intermission in the Flattening of Time, is a guest-heavy, moody and reflective romp of well-written songs.
