about

Seeing your beliefs shaken up by unpredictable forces of nature. Being attracted to someone who’s the opposite of what you thought was ideal. Facing the unknown. Once again, there’s no other way to confront this fear of the unknown than taking the devil by the horns and having a good talk with him.

lyrics

-- Lyrics --

It came from beneath
It was lit up at night
Banned from the day
Showed a pretty sight

Held down to stay
Face to the ground
And for years and years to come
It stayed still
Only shifted slowly towards the flame
That lit up the glow

Look into the eyes of the hurricane
Take him by the horns, call him by his name
You know it very well, for you it’s just the same
No, you’ll never be ready to

Look into the eyes of the hurricane
Take him by the horns, call him by his name
Never want to be ready to explain
No, you’ll never be ready to be ashamed

That day, that day, that day I got by the rainbow
And I never wanted you to know
Still to this day you don’t
No, you don’t
No, you don’t

And I know where I’m from
Scars are only to become
And now they show
And now they show, yeah

And I knew where I was going
Till my feet started lifting
Off the ground, they went
Off the ground, they went

Look into the eyes of the hurricane
Take him by the horns, call him by his name
You know it very well for you it’s just the same
No, you’ll never be ready to

Look into the eyes of the hurricane
Take him by the horns, call him by his name
Never want to be ready to explain
No, you’ll never be ready to be ashamed

Jesse Mac Cormack Montreal, Québec

SOLO is the sound of that transformation, recorded over the course of a year and a half, marked by its hardships but also its relief. Across 10 rippling tracks, the singer summons a sonic world that's razor-edged and intimate, influenced by the textured electronics of James Blake, Caribou and SUUNS. Drum machines stutter under blooms of synths; curses float below swirls of loving sound. ... more
