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.

To be quite honest, this is probably one of the best songs I've ever heard
I feel that way as well ... one you can listen to over and over and it does not get old.
to be honest everything they did is just yum.. my fave is 39 by design, so fkn good
@@chupacabrajr4152 haha cheers to that, yes!
Thank you for being honest
youre probly in the band
It really amazes me how this band doesn't have millions of views
@zuck diggerman we do!
On Spotify they do
Just wait...
90% of the population never gonna appreciate it enough anyways.. but we do, so it's all good
Because Taylor Swift & Ed Sheeran are this generation's icons, and have even roped in some older gen listeners. The best music you'll ever hear is n o t on Top 40s radio.
Depeche Mode meets the Cocteau Twins - gorgeous!!!
You have great knowledge and taste in music! 🎶
That instrumental outro from 4:22 is just magic
hands down the best band out of the 2010s
Their songwriting is incredible on this album
These guys are better than the 80's
Naaah
I went through the 80's but these guys are far better
That’s why people need to stop saying stupid things like “the 80s called, they want their sound back”. Good music shouldn’t become dated.
this whole album is a goddamn masterpiece. i’m so glad i saw them in dallas this month. drab is my favorite synth/goth act of the 20th century🖤🖤🖤
THIS SONG KILLS
man where have this band been my whole life - every one's a winner so far
Put this album on and be instantly transported back to the 80s. It blows my mind how good you guys are at this.
They're better than the 80's
@@stateofblitz Nothing is better than the 80s, but Drab gets close.
FreeJack “nothing is better than the 80s!” Quote of the century right here!
A confluence of tasteful influence, made new
@@BulletProofBacon mMM.mmmmm
I'm flying a fighter jet slow with no glass cover towards a dark orange sunset littered with early stars
The perfect landscape for this music.
Majestically Drabulous!
Wowwwww....this is a fantastic song. I hear The Cure and Duran Duran but it's not the same as those bands. HOW did I not find this band a long time ago!? Better late than never. COME TO AUSTIN...club: Elysium.
I'm a child of the 80s and yes I hear duran duran...the drab kills it.
Favorite album of 2019.
The Other Side es una deliciosa inmersión en un océano de melancolía enmascarada como música oscura y elegante. Drab Majesty nos arrastra con su aura enigmática hacia una experiencia sonora que se debate entre lo sombrío y lo magnético, como si estuviéramos danzando con la muerte en una fiesta post-apocalíptica.
La voz etérea del cantante se desliza entre las capas de sintetizadores, creando una sensación de melancolía melódica. Las letras nos invitan a explorar los recovecos más oscuros de nuestra existencia y a abrazar los aspectos más sombríos de nuestra naturaleza humana, todo ello en un tono que combina la seriedad de un filósofo con el humor irónico de un observador astuto.
Probably the best song in the album !!
i will tell you in a few minutes
@@michaeledwards1644 you haven't
@@AgravepasmonK it is not the best, top 3 thou.. Elipsis is better
The last 30 seconds, totally new section, shades of a late bridge, then they just cut it and end with it. Fire.
Out of secuence
My heart bleeds your melodies. Come back to Argentina!
Jesus thats good... crazy talent and ears for perfect synth sound
This is magic dream wave 🎵🎶🦇🕸🎩🕷🖤🙏💙
A privilege to listen too & a pleasure to the ears 💙🖤💙🖤
Those deep, haunting vocals , synth and guitar are majestic!🖤💙
These guys are incredible!
Absolute masterpiece
Sublime
Back to the 80’s. Finally !!!
was never really into this type of electronic music in its heyday, but now for some reason it resonates with me and ticks off all of the nostalgia points. drab majesty nails it, every time. so glad I found these guys.
This album lacks for being a bit short. 'The Demonstration' remains my favourite but 'Modern Mirror' stands on its own as a very solid release, these guys are fabulous.
I am addicted to this song from the very first time I´ve heard it
I'm hypnotized. Another great one from Drab Majesty!
BEST DAMN SONG OF 2019
WHY ALBUM IS SO SHOOOORT?!!!
Rewelacyjny utwór! Dziękuję & pozdrawiam. I listen to this song on a loop non-stop because I can't get enough, it's so good. I'm posting it on my FB profile so others can get to know something great. Greetings from Poland!
Lyrics to the Best track on the new Album:
You kept to yourself
I couldn't find you
A sign of the times
Because you walked the line
I'm over the act
I couldn't tempt you
I numbed my brain
As you unclogged the drain
Now run it
[Verse 2]
You're still haunting me
It sounds unfounded
Although it's apathy
What goes around you see
Breaks the boundaries
You Walk with a smile
And it's all just a style
Since you put me on trial today
[Chorus]
Why should I just walk away
For you to come around another day?
Waiting for the time we will collide
When I meet you on the other side
[Verse 3]
Ships in the night
Right in front of me
Accepted your slight
Though your answer was trite
I reached for the phone
But couldn't vent to you
I numbed my brain
As you unclogged the drain
Now run it
[Verse 4]
We're losing our honesty
Yet my virtue's not promising
And I thought you were harnessing
Your God-given artistry
Your God-given artistry
[Chorus]
Why should I just walk away
For you to come around another day?
Waiting for the time we will collide
When I meet you on the other side
Why should I just walk away
For you to come around another day?
Keep you in the side of my eye
It may be on
On the other side
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Why should I just walk away
For you to come around another day?
Waiting for the time we will collide
When I meet you on the other side
Why should I just walk away
For you to come around another day?
Keep you in the side of my eye
It may be on
On the other side
[Outro]
When you find yourself
Inside a living hell
The moment always lies
And when you find yourself
Inside a living hell
The moment never dies
So glad they turned up the volume on this album!
Can't put into words how much I adore these guys 🥰
Amazing!
Melancholical happiness with memories
This is so delightful to listen to. I don't even know how else to describe it.
Damn!!! what a cool song!!!
Love me some modern 80s
wow this track is amazing!!Drab Majesty has made a great progress on their music. Synths sound super!
Incredible!!
My favorite track so far 80s come back
Absolute banger!
5:31 holy shit needs to be its own song !
This is a badass track my bros! just sticks to the soul like some wet messy bbq ribs ^o^
It's was one the most beautifull song i ever heard..
Wow ;o
WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW
Their Space-Wave really haz my heart!
♡♡♡
Best song
Stupendously fine musical conception!! Has a modest hint of the Guitaring/style found in the Songs by The Mission!Great work!
I've seen that specific guitar sound/vibe characterized/ described as "Spangly Guitar" in a list that was naming off all the major components of the Gothic Rock genre. Sisters of Mercy, Fields of the Nephilim, Siouxsie & the Banshees, etc are no strangers to the sound
Best god damn song for me
This song saved my 2019. For real.
I absolutely love this song!
This song really puts on the vibe
Such talent
Underrated, this song absolutely bangs
❤️
this is really hitting that 80s spot deep inside of me
💯🍃💨🌀
Love these guys!
love ✌️
Great song.And it sounds great live.Saw them live in Austin,that opening bass on the keyboards almost started an earthquake.Great show.
Who is still listening in 2022?
LOVE! Favorite “newer” band that I just discovered. 🖤
Superb
Drab Majesty, I got my eyes on you Bois. October/ Berli/Urban Spree. Nothin more to say.
Layers on layers of harmony and sweet melody take me far far away to stained glass coffins
I wish i could just climb into this song i somehow relate to this spirtually
That intro
Perfect malody,perfect voice.
This slaps
i love you drab
Love,love, love.
Hungry Like The Wolf!
Incredible
Great song! Just added this to my list of best songs I found this year!
So lush!
this is amazing !!! 80s VIBE :)
Big "The Cure" vilbes from this one

This touch's me.

Τρομερό συγκρότημα

Get right.
Very much Depeche Mode-sounding
