										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ryan Stanley is a musician from Tallahassee in Florida. He has been recording music in a variety of guises over the last few years (including solo work as <a href="http://diyscarves.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">DIY Scarves</a>), and has recently recruited some friends to form a band called <a href="https://www.facebook.com/napsisaband" target="_blank">Naps</a>. The band have just recorded their first single, ‘Jean Skirt Mystique’, and were kind enough to email us about it.</p>
<p>&#8216;Jean Skirt Mystique’ is a nice little bedroom pop track which opens with a gentle, almost twee, account of a stale relationship. The lyrics, like all the best “bedroom-pop,” are full of Millennial angst, a sense of resignation and apathy, not only concerning the aforementioned relationship, but also pretty much everything else. Stanley sings:</p>
<p><em>“there’s nothing between us </em><br />
<em>there’s nothing anymore </em><br />
<em>there’s no god between us </em><br />
<em>there’s no god between us </em><br />
<em>there’s no god anymore</em>”</p>
<p>The song shifts during the second half, where things are kicked into a second gear of ramshackle lo-fi indie rock. The whole thing clocks in at under three minutes, and certainly left me wanting more. I suppose I’ll just have to be patient.</p>

<p>Download the track for the princely sum of zero pounds/dollars over at the <a href="http://napsisaband.bandcamp.com/album/jean-skirt-mystique" target="_blank">Naps Bandcamp page</a>.</p>
