	Only Tuesday, filled with dread Left me contemplating what’s instead? Can I fool them with a rictus grin? Leave them crawling all over on my skin Can you save my life? Can you save my life? It’s your breath, my sigh When you save my life Only Tuesday, filled with dread And I’m still overthinking what was said Well you know me, and you think I’m fine But now you see that I’m fading over time Can you save my life? Can you save my life? Your lens, my tired eyes When you save my life Can you save my life? Can you save my life? Compress to revive When you save my life

about

Debris Discs (the solo project from former Coves & Caves and My Side of the Mountain frontman and songwriter James Eary) returns with brand new track ‘Save My Life’. Lockdown proved to be a surprisingly fertile creative period for James. The upshot of an imposed routine and constant headspace shift between home working and home schooling was a newfound drive and discipline in music making. Every second of free time had to count, resulting in James hunkering down to write and record a batch of new songs for the debut Debris Discs album.

The new album tracks don’t deal directly with the global pandemic, but the relentless rhythm of lockdown manifests in the motorik inspired beat underpinning first single ‘Save My Life’. A driving yet melodic bass line glues to the drum machine, with a subtly pleading vocal up close and personal in the mix. Bubbling synths, filtered guitars and ghostly harmonics swirl around the soundscape adding depth and off-kilter sonic flourishes.

‘Save My Life’ asks a big question with a myriad of answers. All that’s really required to dig a tunnel through the despair is the knowledge that somebody actually cares about you. Someone that sees through those painted smiles and nonchalant shrugs and knows when you’re not ok. It’s not about heroics and grand gestures. This life is saved by love.
