Good For The Brain And Soul: Einstein’s “Please, My God Camus”

I can’t really elaborate on how this exactly relates to Albert Camus, though for all I know this is a meditation on the fleeting nature of happiness and life and how we should embrace that idea as a means to live our lives to the fullest. This just sounds really good. Einsteins aren’t an out-of-nowhere unit – they actually released an album online last year, which you should go download. “Please, My God Camus” is their latest song, and it’s a soft affair, built around fluttery synths and the group’s lead vocalist, who boasts a higher-pitched singing voice. The overall effect of all these elements is of lightness, of every sound arranged here seemingly at risk of being blown away by a single gust of wind. Yet it does have some rougher spots – the drum programming skitters, at times sounding like glitches in an otherwise cute operating system. Still, this is a thoughtful track from a group we shall certainly be keeping an eye on from now. Listen below.
