New Paint 02:16
i would happily sell my soul with the lights on there will be no guarantees or refunds what's the harm in the thought of being underground if i'm sticking around? i'm delighted to know that this is not fun no need to undress the wounds of success just take a rest you could say you knew it all along you're not wrong would you carefully talk to me with the shades down? we can be carefree if we're not found it's a shot in the dark even a dull knife is useful and sharp i'm excited to know that this is not fun

Cool As Dead 02:06
what do you see in me? a warm body? i joke they say "it's meant to be" personally i don't i'm dead on the inside but cool as a ghost there are times i cannot sleep when counting sheep's a hoax i turn in disbelief when i need her the most wet street, mirror-deep can i rearrange the needs? let live and let it be

Shorted 01:18
don't reach out to me with an olive branch i'll cut down that tree before you have the chance i like the view as you walk away a year before, well, you could've stayed but as time goes on and everything dissolves you've somehow stayed the same i like the view as you walk away a year before, well, you could've stayed as the earth revolves we find no resolve there's no one else to blame although distorted and proven sordid i've been shorted

about

Stuck at home with limited resources, Hersch has made the most of the one microphone he owns, splitting time between his garage and basement. His latest release and fourth in the last year, “Deep Clean” continues to highlight the frenetic energy and pop punk stylings of the last decade which Hersch may or may not be known for. The three-song EP, part of Dromedary Records’ lathe-cut picture disc series, touches on loss of friends, loss of direction, and loss of brain cells, but emerges with a renewed sense of optimism and reawakening after a yearlong stint in semi-isolation.

Limited handmade, one-of-a-kind lathe-cut 7" picture disc available from www.dromedary-records.com

"The draw of "Deep Clean's" garage rock sound and power-pop leanings is undeniable, three pieces that wrap around you like a close friend who's had way too much to drink. "New Paint," "Cool As Dead," and "Shorted" quickly make their way into your bloodstream and quicken the pulse like a shot of adrenaline. And while the band's overall sound and home studio recordings might scare off some, I found these qualities made Civic Mimic and the three-song "Deep Clean" so relatable." - James Damion, Jersey Beat
