Today, Clothesline From Hell, the Toronto-based songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Adam LaFramboise, released his new EP, Soon We’ll All Be Smoking, via 444%.
This EP offers a captivating blend of moody lo-fi alterna-pop, showcasing LaFramboise’s unique ability to create atmospheric and introspective soundscapes.
About the EP by Adam:
“I’d like to say the title is a reference to a Delillo novel or something cool, but I actually stole it from season 2 of The Bear.
I only saw the scene once but if I remember correctly, the staff is getting overwhelmed by a dinner rush or whatever and someone shouts something to the effect of ‘don’t worry, soon we’ll all be smoking’.
It struck me immediately and I started thinking about the trickiness of living oriented toward rewards.
It’s always like ‘once I do this, then I’ll have this’ and a lot of the time, the reward is the least interesting part.
Something as banal as a cigarette; something as toxic as a cigarette. I feel like not getting caught in this loop is the whole battle of living. But, I’d be lying if I acknowledge that I probably named this EP after that line as a way of promising myself and others that if we get this done, rock stardom awaits us.
I’m still daydreaming about that sort of thing and smoking even though I know it’s really bad for me.”
