Synapse of the Century, our first full length album takes off with the cosmic love song, Travel the Universe, to traverse numerous existential planetary vantage points along this ten song journey. Synapse covers the full range of love, life, loss, pain, strain, and gains while reflecting themes of hope and fear throughout the duo's evolved electronic approach to songwriting during the COVID-19 global pandemic.
Physical album incudes digital download, full size (12"x12") original commissioned artwork from Buffalo, NY artist MJ Myers and full lyric sheet insert. Made with love.

lyrics
(Geoff)
I feel so hollow
This pill is too hard to swallow
Send the white balloon in sorrow
Let it fly into tomorrow
(Jay)
Locked in a hole way down and I’m feelin low
I gotta get mine…I don’t care who ya know
I’m taking the cash real fast and if you fight back you’re catching a blast
…I’m havin’ a blast
Never thought I’d see the day
When my life would change this way
So many things I need to say
But now it’s all been thrown away
I feel so hollow
This pills too big to swallow
Send a white balloon in sorrow
Fly high into tomorrow
Never thought I’d see the day
When my life would change this way
So many things I need to say
But now it’s all been thrown away
How long it will last? I don’t know
Is it fast or slow? I don’t know
But I feel so hollow
Send a white balloon in sorrow

Indie rock suspended between youthful ennui and youthful rage, hooky but cerebral and taut with rhythmic tension, just like the 90s. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 23, 2024
