the pathetic and elegant is the bedroom recording project of lucas fisher, inspired by the unique experience of a year spent studying abroad in japan. another interesting thing about the pathetic and elegant's debut album '
i am in love' is that is released under the auspices of
spellabee space, and amorphous art collective supporting creative endeavors in all mediums from baltimore, maryland.
the music is clever, whistful lofi keyboard indie-pop that speaks, both in terms of sonic impression and lyrical themes, to the over-stimulation coupled with loneliness and isolation that one can experience when embedded in a foreign land far from anything they love or are familiar with. it's pretty good.
