Mal Blum - PITY BOY LP June 12, 2019Mastering, 2019Ryan Schwabe Recorded by Joe ReinhartMixed by Joe ReinhartMastered by Ryan SchwabeDon Giovanni Records Pity Boy by Mal Blum The upbeat, punk-pop power chords and infectious lyrics are accompanied appropriately by a karaoke-style video. Along with the neon pink and blue text stretching across the screen with every line, a montage of clips shows people dancing and singing into the camera to “Things Still Left To Say.” In the background, Blum is laid out in a plant-filled living room, feeding lettuce to a turtle. Vibrant and liberating in all it’s awkward glory, what shines through is Blum’s signature, self-effacing honesty. — NPR.com
