However in Korfian’s Apathy Star, he digs deeper into the darkest recesses of our psyches with each software at his disposal. The lyrics don’t try to decorate up the ennui of changing into numb to tragedy – strains reminiscent of “I scroll by way of tragedy, I’m overexposed, I’m a star of apathy,” refuse to sugar-coat how monochrome static now hums the place serotonin needs to be. With the LP’s very title, Digital Brutalism, he eclipses the place we have now change into as a society whereas channelling the aesthetics of darkish isolation each sonically and visually within the official music video.
