about

A few months after the release of their first album ‘Blind Reflection’, OSTED took advantage of the lockdown to write a second page of their story with the release of “Conflicting Memories”, an EP with very pronounced New-Wave and Indie Rock tones. Four titles with heterogeneous styles are mixed in this EP mixed and arranged once again in London by Kenny Jones. From the mysterious Post-Punk of "Choke In Paradise" to the energetic Indie Rock of "Sarajevo", with some more Dream Pop sounding tones with "Apathetic Systematic" and "Midnight Gleam", the young band from Metz continues to experiment with new soundscapes and to extend its horizons in this production signed by the label Endless Night Records.

lyrics

He said to be your wings
Utterly incomplete
Controlled by a few strings
What you are is worth nothing

You’re shy
Like a storm in the sea
Why don’t you just set you free
It’s a lie
What you see
Why don’t you just set you

And it reminds me of
And it reminds me of

His heart was so empty
Overly absently
The danger is the key
To your stability

You’re shy
Like a storm in the sea
Why don’t you just set you free
It’s a lie
What you see
Why don’t you just set you

And it reminds me of
And it reminds me of
And it reminds me of you
And it reminds me of you

And it reminds me of
All the things we used to say
and it reminds me of
All the things in the wrong way
and it reminds me of
All the things in the wrong way
