So... I'm a little late on this but I'm feeling kind of nostalgic so whatever, I want to write about my old music lol. 
Really, this was only 2.5 years ago, but a lot in my life has changed for better and for worse and I don't feel like the same person as I was before. 
So this commentary might not be as 'pure' as it would have been if I had written this when I wrote the songs.

EXIT SLIP
The title and stuff was just based on hearing that phase at school and thinking, "haha, that sounds like a euphemism for a suicide note". 

I JUST BLOCKED ALL MY FRIENDS
True story. I was going through a phase of constantly blocking and then unblocking all my friends every month or so. 
That's why I don't have social media anymore. I was just so lonely at that time, I spent every day alone and that's basically the song.

FANGIRL
Every so often I get OBSESSED with a certain band or artist. I will not say who this song was inspired by because it's embarassing 
but I was genuinely just so obsessed with this band , I would just sit there thinking about how cool they are. 
I gave the song a kind of sarcastic tone because I knew that my obsession was unfounded, they're just people, 
but I did kind of genuinely feel this way (except for the skin wearing stuff... lol). I don't know how to describe it, 
I was so in awe of this band that I felt defeated with myself.
The music video was a lot of fun to make. My friend (credited in the video as Vincent C.) helped me out with it so for once I wasn't all alone!
Originally another friend was actually supposed to help us film so the chasing parts could be in third person, but they cancelled last minute so
we just adapted. I'll never do something like that again though, filming in public was SO embarassing lol. Honestly I think the music video
turned out pretty well though. Vincent doesn't play bass so the bass playing in the video is non-existant, and my guitar playing in the video
is awful too, but whatever! Maybe that's part of the charm. It's objectively a bad video but I have fun memories tied to it so I like it.

MOM, DON'T TAKE THIS PERSONALLY
Uhhhhhh yeah this is embarassing. 
At the time I was really bitter and spiteful to the religion I was raised in because I had just figured out I was gay so yeah. 
I mostly don't like this song now because of how melodramatic and serious it is. And slow. I really thought I said something huh.

C F Am G
This one is also kind of cringey, but I guess that was kind of the point. Also unecessary f bomb lol. 
I was trying to be funny and self-aware, but it just came off a little try hard I think. Honestly I don't know what this song is about. 
I don't know exactly what I was trying to say. Maybe just "haha I suck isn't that funny" (it's not)

FAINT OF HEART
So this one is just about killing myself. The whisper-singing is cringey and some of the lyrics really suck but I think the chorus still holds up.
 The line "bite the tip of my glasses off" is a reference to that thing about CIA agents keeping little bits of cyanide 
in their glasses or pens or whatever in case they needed a quick exit. I don't know if it's actually true or not but I thought it sounded cool. 
Also nice voice crack good job for leaving that in. 

Some miscellaneous notes:
- I always used to push my voice really low, as low as I could go because I was very afraid of every being perceived as feminine.
- I know I'm being pretty hard on this EP and on my past self, but I do think there's still some good stuff. 
It's clumsy and poorly produced but hey, it was the first thing I ever made so of course it's not gonna be great. 

P.S. Huge thank you to anyone who heard this EP and stuck around, I really don't know how anyone heard this and was like "yeah this is a good band" lol
