One other stellar monitor from Miami-based The Wax Worms, “Dropping Weekends” pairs haunting neo-psychedelic intrigue with relatable lyrical laments on the each day grind — particularly, how working a dead-end job may cause one to really feel like their time is disappearing. “And now I’m on the clock once more,” the vocals let loose with chilling affect as hazy guitar twangs and mellow keys stir alongside, constructing right into a fervent organ-fronted finale that upticks the ardor with sating attract. It’s one other thorough success from the act, who’ve caught our ears previously with the tracks “Laura” and “Donny Says.”
Songwriter Max Harrison elaborates on the monitor:
“I wrote “Dropping Weekends” once I was working full-time at a grocery retailer, and I simply sort of began to really feel like I used to be fading away. All of my time was disappearing, and I had so little power to contribute to creating music on the finish of my workweeks. And since my week started at 7AM on Fridays, I finally stopped going out, and succumbed to the existential dread. So one evening, I sat down with my strat and wah pedal, cranked out my emotions, and ended up with “Dropping Weekends”.
This tune dropping the identical month as Could Day is solely intentional. This tune is for employees, individuals in wage-slavery, and for anyone who can relate to working at a job that doesn’t worth your price. “Dropping Weekends” is an unapologetic anti-work anthem.”
