That is, if her computer isn't infected with adware again. (Also known as, three genres that are so broad in their sounds that it's hard to pin them down.)Īnd so, I decided to curate an extra-special mixtape (*coughs* Spotify playlist) that maybe, theoretically, one of the characters would slide to Mae. The music, even if we can't hear the vocals, melodically reminded me of indie rock, modern-day emo, and pop-punk. Find this Pin and more on Quick Saves by asap movers.

If she performs bad, she’s slyly insulted, despite the fact that she literally hasn’t played her bass in years. If she performs well, she gets backhanded praise.

My band was like most teenage bands-useless and hardly a band at all. When I was a teenager, I was in a band not unlike the apathetic critters of Night in the Woods.
