Song: “Recluse In The Making”
Album: Bless My Psyche
Release Date: September 10th, 2021
Label: Hopeless Records

Bandleader Deanna Belos explains:

’Recluse In The Making’ is about struggling to make life in those few hours after work—motivation fleeting like the sunlight. It’s sort of a reminder to myself to push through the exhaustion and get up and go out. I’m only cheating myself out of precious life time if I don’t.

This was one of the music video ideas that I thought of during the year of the pandemic that I could execute by myself. I played The Sims a bunch as a kid. I had to stop when I got older and felt a weird sadness about it—spending my real life playing a game that is a computer simulation of my life. It’s still fun, though. I let myself play it guilt-free to make this video, because I could call it work, ha-ha!”
