lyrics
I think I’ll come out of this quite disfigured
I think I’ll come out of this having conceded too much ground
I’m livid, poor soul poor soul!
and make no doubt I’ll figure it out
upon reflection that I jettisoned
the pleasures I should have clung to most dearly
oh its clear to me now that I don’t know who I am
and when I look at all I have I don’t know who I am
this livid poor, poor soul!
on the smallest plot
on a dwindling plot
of diminished returns
my poor soul on the smallest plot of land
I should come out of this quite impaired
I think I’ll come out of all this quite disfigured
oh, look at what I’ve done!
I’ve conceded too much ground
on the smallest plot
on a dwindling plot of diminished returns
my poor soul, oh poor soul!

The singular approach James Joys has long applied to deconstructed electronica, detailed sound design and carefully constructed language, folded into a world of choral texture and literally given new breath. Stunning, troubling and cathartic. Pete Devlin's voice is, as ever, a marvel. Cannot recommend enough. John Pope

Mary Halvorson is a genius composer and guitarist who has developed her own musical language, and with Code Girl she has incorporated poetry into that language. Incredible compositions and lyricism (each track is a different kind of poem). Halvorson's playing is as great as usual, and all the other members of the band sound great. Robert Wyatt's singing in particular works extremely well in the tracks he's featured. Highly, highly recommend. rat
A dreamy, sonically diverse coming-of-age story from NYC artist mỹ tâm, who infuses art pop with elements of jazz and chiptune.
