about
No one in Products Band snorts cocaine much anymore, but this song may have you fooled. Combining playful-yet-sinister bass grooves with irresistible funk/punk swagger, “The Matter” pours political alienation into a shot glass before hitting the dancefloor. Alex Hanson’s nervy + sexy delivery gets fans boogieing with one eye over their shoulders. Don’t worry, they included a hypnotic, chant-able chorus as well.

lyrics
The big mistake
Can’t be revealed
In a secret location
Where wallpaper peels
Scan the badge
Open the door
To find a smiling face you’ve never
seen there before and –-
Now he’s nominating you
To slow down the oversight
It’s what you were elected to do
Greasing the wheel never ceasing or yielding ground
Compound complexity
To obscure the suffering
The months go by (they pass!)
Out run the heat (pass out dead!)
Still an uneasy stillness
hangs over your seat
(Out run the heat!)
The song you sang (so sweet!)
Lost its rhyme
The prescribed choreography
Fell out of time
(Now) what are you supposed to do?
To build back the firewall?
You finish the final room
Sick with desire to squeal and reveal it all
Last night before you meet
A new cold reality
What’s the matter?
Huh?
What’s the matter?
Huh?
Oh what’s the matter
With you?
What’s the matter?
Huh?
What’s the matter?
Huh?
Oh what’s the matter
With you?

Dirtbag Transformation: "What is this?" was my first reaction. But what an amazing song. It reminds me a bit of the Pixies in how it pulls together dissonance and then resolves. malfunction54
Twitchy, effects-heavy post-punk grooves give way to psychedelic surf-rock delirium on the Toronto quartet's dreamy-yet-doomy second LP. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 25, 2024
