Work of the Lord is my second pop-vocal album. It’s a discordant mess of electronic styles, production techniques, and contradictory themes that don’t belong together. This album is meant to revel in the things I love and hate about myself while still maintaining plausible deniability.
At times, I wanted these songs to form a critique of consumerism and the looming threat of fascism in American politics. At other times, I wanted it to be a series of jokes about the terminally online queer experience. I wanted to break down every expectation I impose on myself about a presentable album. I wanted to refuse to sit still. I wanted an album that feels like being scared to come out. I wanted an album that serves as a love letter to being a loser. I wanted to let all these competing emotions talk over one another. I’m not sure where I landed.
This album is sponsored by the Northstar Automotive Corporation.
