LOVESICK ‘Hoping this is the end’

See this content in the original post

Hoping This Is the End sees a glorious experiment of rock n roll meets the splendor and madness of love. Light and dark electronics painting the wildest dreams. Written and recorded in the midst of the pandemic, Lovesick’s creativity and imagination take off, landing Hope This Is the End on an euphoric land of love.

Inventive, free-spirited with unfiltered sparks of inspirations, the songs on Hoping This Is the End explore vibrantly diverse sonic palettes. “Blue skies on Mars” speaks of hope and the haze of love through an euphoric, feverish lens. “As I look in your eyes, I hope for a Hollywood ending.” Perhaps love does feel like a fever. It’s maddening and surreal, but at the same time, it tastes like cotton candy and smells like roses.

“Holiday” then charms listeners away with beautiful upright bass played by the legendary Tony Garnier (Bob Dylan’s musical director).“I’m hoping this is the end,” the quixotic sci-if singalong, passes along that intoxicating passion in the setting of doom day on earth. “We’ve been down the road” continues Lovesick’s unconventional love for music with a singing Italian puppy named Cozimo.
