Instant Empire’s “Disco Systems in the Dark” is a song with a big narrative about alcohol abuse. The songs are sung with a conversational approach that is a monologue until the infectiously melodic chorus kicks in as an ode to James. The spiral is a tale as old as time. The uplifting melody of the chorus is a direct juxtaposition to the lyrical content. If you’re looking for a harsh dose of reality about alcoholism dressed up in clever lyrics and pretty music check out “Disco Systems in the Dark”.
