Blowing the dust off the antiquarian myth of Ovid’s “Narcissus”, Drab Majesty uses its premise as groundwork for a modern reinterpretation. Each song tells a piece of the story, in which the listener’s own self-identity has become warped and dissociated through rapidly expanding technology, losing touch with the origins of their own personalities. Setting the stage as a romantic saga of antiquity, “A Dialogue” asks the listener if they are truly in love amid a building wash of guitars and reverb. Elements of classic tragedy weigh heavily in the reflection of Modern Mirror in songs like “The Other Side”, possessing a fundamental sound that is energetic, luminous and hopeful. Fusing the sonic aesthetics of predecessors like New Order and The Cure within the cautious instruction of Greek mythology and modern science fiction, Drab Majesty has birthed a hybrid of dreamy malaise, captured for a future moment.
The first single “Ellipsis”, romantically plays up the distorted concept of courting through modern technology in a world that has yet to adapt, while on “Long Division”, Deb’s resounding guitar cascades around the chorus shared with No Joy's Jasamine White-Gluz, wistfully warning us against our vanity and self-obsession. Even when hope for everlasting love peeks through in “Oxytocin”, a sparkling and stoic track sung by Mona D., we are firmly reminded our fleeting existence.
Modern Mirror is a journey of self-reflection, nostalgia, love, beauty, and heartbreak told across eight addictive and emotional synth pop anthems - a seemingly classic tale delivered unblinkingly through the frame of the modern world.
Produced by Josh Eustis (Telefon Tel Aviv) and mastered by Dave Cooley.

I don't think I've ever been so hyped on any musical artist. They took everything I like in music, added their own thing, and delivered the best music I've heard in recent years and ever before. Thank you Drab Majesty. Your work and art is enjoyed and appreciated.
agreed with you) I listen to it almost every day since I discovered them
Drab can do no wrong, every song they produce is incredible, no fillers just quality well thought out songs.
This is an incredible new Album. Incredibly Artistry.
I can't stop listening to this album. Save me.
Beautiful, thanks Drab Majesty ❤
Lyrics:
Whenever love starts to control you
As it holds you
You'll see a sign
You shouldn't walk through paradise
I can't lobotomize
Just apologize
In a way that it keeps you
'Cause I need you
Duress will show
If you will go on
Or your love will die
To love and die
As you order the knife
Whatever God says, I came here to find you
And to blind you
Just to know that I was lost in your
Modern eyes
Your modern eyes
Modern eyes were a maze
Invitation where I want you
You believe me but you cannot see me
Or my mission as to why I lie
Two dolls in the dark
Danced right from the start
In a world alone
And I laid there with the walls around me
Dead and dreaming on my telephone
(And such a long way from home)
You came along
Stronger than I imagined
In fashion
We sat alone
In the early light
Drinking pinkish wine
Even every little thought
That bound our lips to the clock
Seemed to melt in an instant
Eyes equidistant
And the music played
In subtle shades
Of gold and beige
And I lost you as the sun came out
Invitation where I want you
You believe me but you cannot see me
Or my mission as to why I lie
Two dolls in the dark
Danced right from the start
In a world alone
And I laid there with the walls around me
Dead and dreaming on my telephone
Invitation where I want you
You believe me but you cannot see me
Or my mission as to why I lie
Two dolls in the dark
Danced right from the start
In a world alone
And I laid there with the walls around me
Dead and dreaming on my telephone

I discovered this song thanks to spotify and I am a fan of this band from now. They have printed magic and colored it with sounds. A beautiful song!!!! melodic changes are awesome!
I wish they would perform this amazing song live.
my go to tune when warming up at the skate park
This is my favorite song off of Modern Mirror. I do declare!
At first I hated it, but now it's definitely my favorite. The guitar part in the chorus, and when he sings "and I lay there with the walls around me" - instant goosebumps
I concur

♡♡♡
🖤
Encantadora
I hear a little Duran Duran in one of the opening synths lol
Sound like the synths from "Rio".
@@jackgoff2072 exactly!
gorgeous !
I thought I was the only one sensing some Duran Duran too :)
This one reminds me of the end of Blade Runner - Roy and Pris hiding in the decaying ruins of the Bradbury building, fighting desperately to preserve their lives and humanity against a world trying to drown their consciousness under its bleak oppressiveness. Two characters I deeply connected to when I was young (and often still do).
I'm a hardcore blade runner fan...yup I can see it....

They could've been great in the 80's
But they are great in the present
They were literal babies in the 80s I'm pretty sure xD
If this came out in the 80s without being influenced by anything of that era, we would be talking about them and not half the New Wave/Synthpop we talk about today.
@@trevorxvx Absolutely. Though, I think people *should* be talking about Drab Majesty because they're freakin' awesome in their own right.
@@user-hq1fj3zo4d I think they were born in the 90's. I know for a fact Deb wasn't around in the 80's but, he encapsulates the sound.
Drunk again🥰
🎶😎🎶
Perfect
💪🏾👍🏾💚
dead and dreaming on my telephone
*B A N G E R*
A profane dream in pink and smoke
