    Deb Demure’s powerful presence and hypnotic sound has firmly defined the identity of Drab Majesty. After releasing the debut album, Careless, Drab Majesty split time between touring and studios, piecing together the ideas for the follow-up album, "The Demonstration", an album depicting Deb Demure as only one part of Drab Majesty's overall being and storytelling saga.
    Starting off with the instrumental "Induction", Drab Majesty sets up an ethereal backdrop for which the rest of the album follows. Tracks such as “Dot In The Sky” and “39 By Design” (a song pointing to the doomsday Heaven's Gate cult) use lush, shoegaze approach to portray the fragility of humanity's loss of self, looking only to the heavens for answers. "Cold Souls" flawlessly executes Drab Majesty's arpeggiated finger picking signature, complete with washes of hazy noise and atmospheric reverb. With the addition of Mona D. to Drab Majesty's mysterious portfolio, songs from The Demonstration perpetually create new meanings and depth with every listen. After Drab Majesty wraps up The Demonstration with "Behind The Wall", one is left wondering what kind of identity is truly their own.
    Produced by Josh Eustis of Telefon Tel Aviv.

    This is my favourite track on the album. I don't even count how many times I was repeating it on spotify. Nostalgic, old 80's forever.

    Yet again creating something beautiful (along with "39 By Design") out of the horror of the 38 (plus 1) who lost their lives to Heaven's Gate.
    Remember how the cult leader got his followers to change their names once within the cult. Called them something they weren't; it's never just names.
    Hard to imagine a more beautiful love letter to those people, who probably were just trying to find a way to deal with the strangeness of it all...
    -and put their trust in the messianic hubris of a man who was already lost.

    We all hoped to be finding the light
    We were alone on the Earth, searching for someone alike
    Your words made sense with the truth you possessed
    Believing the call of our kind would be fine if we were divinely blessed
    You said we would be recycled
    Took a hold of our souls just make us the same
    Called me something I wasn't it's not just a name
    Take your time taking minds just to stay in the game
    Made me someone I wasn't it's not just a name
    We couldn't love but you paired us together to walk hand in hand
    The irony
    We couldn't make this world ours because it wasn't a part of the plan
    You said we would be recycled
    You said i would be recycled
    Took a hold of our souls just make us the same
    Called me something I wasn't it's not just a name
    Take your time taking minds just to stay in the game
    Made me someone I wasn't it's not just a name
    Why do we do, like you?
    Why do we do?
    Made me someone I wasn't it's not just a name
    You called me something I wasn't it's not just a name
    You made me someone I wasn't it's not just a name
    You called me something I wasn't it's not just a name

      Great lyrics... I've read elsewhere this line: Believing the call of our kind would be fine if we were divinely blessed" is actually "Believing the -Cull- of our kind . . ." meaning killing/culling was the lyric... Either way it's poignant but I find it more bittersweet or cult-programmed if this is what is expressed. Thanks for sharing.

    It was OUR pathetic earthly existence that made them search for something better.
    I hope they are in a better place after all. They deserve to be in utopia for realizing the ravishes of our existence.
