Salutations and welcome to Missed Connections An album by COMR and random people they found on craigslist. Before we get started I've been told not to inform you that I'm being held against my will-anyway my name is Simon and I will be guiding you through your experience this evening. Sit back, enjoy, and most importantly... Thank you for listening.

Old friend, never lost or forgotten Over a year has gone by and we haven't talked and I Extend my emotions out to you And share the truth I'm stuck between happiness with my kids And online from you I haven't forgotten you Or our conversations They have brought my heart joy in tough times I may not get to feel that comfort anymore But maybe one day my heart will find You. Something. Anything. Please...

Set Adrift It is dead in that sound Listing emptily The voyage no longer missed Only regretted, now graded Memories flung like carnival spin art, Picked over by a pop eyed big beaked pasty freak Coldly dishing out obit bits The scales of that frigid fish with teeth Flashing briefly There was audacity then. Some kind of clarity? No one was worthy of speaking on the telephone What was the plot?

It's been eight months and I still don't totally understand why everything happened the way it did. The whole time we've been back and forth with eachother Divorced three months now It still doesn't feel right I loved you to the moon and back I care about you till the end of time I guess I need to let go so you can too Sucks. I'm forced to be with someone else when I know you feel the same way about me and you're the only one I think about The only one I truly want And now I can't have you I know you have low self esteem But you were my everything I think I was yours too But now I'll never know Sometimes you don't make sense Sometimes you make all the sense in the world We do shitty things to eachother Why can't we stop? I can't sleep I work myself as hard as I can for as long as I can and I still can't sleep I toss and turn at night thinking we failed Why were we so lazy? If I knew this is how it was gonna end, I would have pushed us harder I'm sure you would've too

about

In the first album by COMR consisting of zero live songs, they explore different territory. Using passages found in the, "Missed Connections," section of Craigslist, the crew created the lyrics. As for the music, it's an eclectic mix of genres, ranging from electronic prog funk to ambient noise music and even to automated spoken word. Most songs feature a new voice, narrator of 'MISSED/CONNECTIONS,' Simon: An A.I. personality, created by COMR, to be the newest member and their go to bandmate when needing spoken word. All of these elements combine to create an atmosphere of vast space and a lack of time but somehow in a way that feels comforting and the fact that this is their shortest album in years adds to the ease of listening. The passages about lost love and the yearning for a second chance grounds the robotic voice in reality and makes you feel for him more and more with each track. You're sure to find something you like about this album, whether it be the humour, the tragedy, the drama or even the music. Everyone can enjoy this.

(A note from COMR:) -This album was years in the making, we've had the idea since 2016 and it took until now to create, but it's here. We hope you enjoy one of our favourite records we've created so far.
Thank you for the continued support and love, but more importantly,
thank you for listening,

-comr
