A deeply personal body of work, Fruit by Slimy Bench explores faults, hurt and self-destruction.
Track list:
Feel It Now: released as a single prior to release to the full project, the song touches upon themes of alienation in the face of hookup culture and introspective disgust with a firm questioning of wondering if it’s possible to be viewed as a good person at all.
As Her: The dreamy sounding indie song touches on the side of adoring someone so much that you want to be them, which is motivated by internalised gender dysphoria, exploding on the end with self destructive thoughts.
Memorial: Motivated by an encounter with food being stolen rather viciously by a seagull, the strutting rock song explores violence as a response to violence.
Mango & Pineapple: Exploring the isolating feelings brought on by being an avid music scene goer, the song explores focusing in on candles as a means to stop it from driving you completely insane.
