On the cinematic opener \"LAX Arrival Scene\" paints the scene of ghostly starlet channeling David Bowie. She could be anyone to us: \"See right through me \/ Forget my name \/ I don't care anymore.\" On the following \"Gothenburg English,\" we're let in on a life-changing heartbreak that she's finally begun to heal from. It's a timeless dance remedy for a broken heart that could fit in the '60s or '80s, distilling the yearning of Girl Groups and the intensity of Pat Benatar. She reflects about growing up a suburban gal on the outskirts of a city renowned for its grime and glamour on \"Good Light.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eBut it's the title track that Gengos says is the most revealing. \"To me, it feels like the most vulnerable song because there's a line in the chorus that says, 'I got it all so wrong while my heroes sing along.' And to me, that was the process of making the album. It was a lot of working through my feelings and seeing what I've done wrong over the past couple years and what I can learn from and what I let happen to me that I shouldn't have let happen to me.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eIt's only fitting that an album indebted to solitary creative process ends with a lovesong to driving. Named after the road that Gengos first felt that rush of freedom after getting her license, \"O Kanan Dume\" captured that liberating euphoria. On \u003cem\u003eMechanical Sweetness\u003c\/em\u003e, she reminds us how good it feels to be alone. How the most powerful embrace can be from yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Egghunt Records","offers":[{"title":"White LP + Digital","offer_id":46247112868063,"sku":"LP-EHR-053","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"WAV Download","offer_id":46247112900831,"sku":"","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"MP3 Download","offer_id":46247112933599,"sku":"","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/9256\/8543\/files\/Mechanical_Sweetness_by_Alyssa_Gengos.jpg?v=1721069934","url":"https:\/\/shop.northern-spy.com\/products\/alyssa-gengos-mechanical-sweetness-ehr053-1","provider":"Northern Spy Label Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
