Tempers - "Peace of Mind" (Official Audio)

"Piece of Mind" from the album 'Private Life' by NYC-based dark synthpop duo Tempers.
Out now on LP/CD/Digital: www.daisrecords.com/collectio...
New York based duo Tempers, comprised of Jasmine Golestaneh and Eddie Cooper, have been diligently carving out their own unique niche within dark indie, electronica and synth-pop circles since their formation. After a series of digital singles in 2013, Tempers began solidifying their singular identity of rigorous electronic production blended with instinctual, unleashed vocals. Following well received tours in Europe and the United States, Tempers saw the release of their debut album entitled Services, released in Germany via the highly regarded cult imprint Aufnahme + Wiedergabe and quickly became a staple in the synth-pop/post punk scenes in both the States and in Europe. Since the release of Services, Tempers have regularly appeared at a number of international festivals and venues, including Test Pressing Festival and Berghain to name a few, and ambitiously created a concept album entitled Junkspace in 2018, in collaboration with famed architect Rem Koolhaas, about the deconstructed banality and overlooked grace of 20th century shopping mall culture.
Tempers third full-length album, Private Life, successfully progresses their cinematic aesthetic into a moodier and more introspective landscape. Private Life opens with “Capital Pains”, a lonely incantation that echoes the human desire to envy other people’s lives and endlessly chase our own insecurities. Surreal, isolated atmosphere backed by upbeat rhythm and melancholy refrain projected from “Capital Pains” perfectly set the tone expectation for Private Life. “Peace of Mind” crawls along as a dramatic dirge with Golestaneh imparting matters of loneliness and solitude, always looking from the outside and complemented with Cooper’s haunting resonance.
The character behind songs such as “Sleep” and “Push/Pull” break from Tempers signature synth-laden post punk notoriety, instead switching to a more somber songwriting style that settles down between downtempo dream pop and despondent soundtracks. Behind the backdrop of driving electronics and magnetic verse, Private Life deconstructs and reimagines the ideas behind despair, love, loneliness, and hope. While most people would simply reflect on nostalgia, Tempers stands alone in their unique methods, fictionalizing their ideas through sound and vision to create soundtracks for everyday affliction.

LYRICS:
I’m looking down
A red and brown
Flower carpet
This peace of mind
This peace of mind
Is overrated
My hand’s a bird
My hand’s a tree
My hand’s an earthquake
Turning off the light
Trees make shadows on the wall
My hands a moon
My hands a hole
My hands a cave
This peace of mind
I’m having now
Is overrated
I saw the loss inside a lie
I saw the loss in modern man
I saw a plastic son of man
I’ll set them all straight again
Lying in the bath
It’s half past three in the morning
This time alone
This time i know
Is overrated
My hand’s a wave
My hand’s a tide
My hand’s a flood
Picking up the light
Water makes shadows on the wall
My hand’s a sky
My hand’s a bridge
My hand’s a home
This time alone
I’m feeling now
Starting over
I saw the loss inside a lie
I saw the loss in modern man
I saw a plastic son of man
I’ll set them all straight again

Lyrics for all who need it ! -
I'm looking down, a red and brown, flower carpet
This peace of mind, this peace of mind, is overrated
My hand's a bird, my hand's a tree, my hand's an earthquake
Turning off the light, trees make shadows on the wall
My hands a moon, my hands a hole, my hands a cave
This peace of mind, I'm having now, is overrated
I saw the loss inside a lie
I saw the loss in modern man
I saw a plastic son of man
I'll set them all straight again
Lying in the bath, it's half past three in the morning
This time alone, this time I know, is overrated
My hand's a wave, my hand's a tide, my hand's a flood
Picking up the light, water makes shadows on the wall
My hand's a sky, my hand's a bridge, my hand's a home
This time alone, I'm feeling now, starting over
I saw the loss inside a lie
I saw the loss in modern man
I saw a plastic son of man
I'll set them all straight again
I saw the loss inside a lie
I saw the loss in modern man
I saw a plastic son of man
I'll set them all straight again
