Desole is the acceptance and regret of what's happened but with an eye towards reconciliation on some level. Aries, Friday 13th, and Dead Butterflies are going through grief, mourning, and substance abuse that comes from the loss of a relationship, of the summer, of deaths, and the world we knew. Pink Phantom is the most direct COVID song, discussing the falling of the relationship against 'The Pink Phantom' which, I mean, come on. Chalk Towers reads like a relationship holding together till the next major storm. Yet there is a six-song stretch on the album that covers a relationship unraveling with distance, pressure, and a lost summer. Songs recorded prior to the pandemic, like Aries, touch on isolation and yearning.

With the info that Pagans and Chalk Tablets coming from prior recording sessions (TNN and Humanz, respectively) I can see how some of the deluxe edition songs would be called up to the main release for a different message.ĬOVID & Loss - Definitely the big shadow over this year it looms large over the album. Of course, Damon couldn't help *massaging* some of those messages by creating some mini-arcs and themes to pick out of the group of songs he decided to release. The 'concept' seems to be the Song Machine trucks along throughout the year, dropping new tunes that reflect the moods, artists, attitudes, and sounds of the times. I've been able to listen to the album about three times now but obv I want the final mastering before making final impressions (my files notably had like 3-4 seconds of silence at the end of them, want to listen on vinyl, etc).
