Ambient pop collective Cigarettes After Sex grew out of an experimental sound project by songwriter Greg Gonzalez. The band's hushed, dreamy music earned a devoted international fan base in the mid-2010s with a combination of elegantly crafted singles, EPs, and viral YouTube videos, which led up to their 2017 eponymous debut. A second album, Cry, appeared in 2019, building on their success. After a collaborative EP credited to Gonzalez and Daniele Luppi (Charm of Pleasure), Cigarettes After Sex re-emerged in 2022 with the single "Pistol," with two more cuts, "Bubblegum" and "Stop Waiting," arrived in 2023. The group was formed almost accidentally in 2008 while Gonzalez was living in El Paso, Texas. Then a student at University of Texas, he was experimenting with capturing the spacious sound of recording songs in a four-story stairwell at the university. These dreamy tunes would make up the first Cigarettes After Sex EP, I., which was released in 2012. After relocating to Brooklyn, Gonzalez continued work on the band, enlisting the help of a loose cast of collaborators including Phillip Tubbs, Randy Miller, Jacob Tomsky, Steve Herrada, Emily Davis, and Greg Leeah. Output from the collective appeared mostly in the form of singles, EPs, and immensely popular YouTube clips. One of their most notable tracks was a 2015 reworking of REO Speedwagon's power ballad "Keep on Loving You." Following a swell of attention online, Cigarettes After Sex began to work on a full-length debut. The self-titled effort arrived in 2017, almost a decade after the band's inception. That year, the single "Apocalypse" was an indie hit in parts of Europe, landing on Billboard's Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart in the U.S. (number 16). One year later, they issued the single "Crush," a track they'd recorded during the same sessions as their debut. In October 2019, the group returned with their sophomore full-length, Cry. With a push from the single "Heavenly," the album charted across Europe, hitting number one in Portugal. Gonzalez then teamed up with composer Daniele Luppi for the EP Charm of Pleasure, released on Monitor Pop/Slowplay/Verve in September 2022. Its gentle, symphonic atmospheres featured instruments like harp and mallet percussion in addition to synths and strings. Two months later, Cigarettes After Sex returned with "Pistol," their first new music in over two years. Two more stand-alone singles, "Bubblegum" and "Stop Waiting," appeared the following year.

heart could come so undone The strings could unravel fast How quickly the war is won And I can't stop these tears from falling right away I know you're calling I can't stop these tears from falling now And I can't stop these tears from falling right away I know you're calling I can't stop these tears from falling now If I was the thinking heart And you were the loving soul With all of my feelings sharp You came crashing in my world A music of cathedrals Bouncing along the glass It's echoing through my ears You took it away so fast And I can't stop these tears from falling right away I know you're calling I can't stop these tears from falling now And I can't stop these tears from falling right away I know you're calling I can't stop these tears from falling now Oh well, the lights are low And I don't need a friend To call my own 'Cause I know it's the end It's the end It's the end It's the end And I can't stop these tears from falling And I can't stop these tears from falling I can't stop these tears from falling And I can't stop these tears from falling I can't stop these, I can't stop these I can't stop these tears from falling I can't stop these, I can't stop these I

Towards Your Fears Here, right here When it's too much for me to take They can't see straight When it's too much for you to take You're the only one You're the only one I'm the only one You're dressed in black And following the purple string So run towards your fears When it's too much for you to take You're the only one You're the only one You're the only one I'm the only one I can't believe the way you breathe On the mirror leaves often marks I draw your name inside the cloud You laugh, so what begins You're the only one You're the only one You're the only one I'm the only one I'm the only one Do You Know Where I Should Go Do you know where I should go Feels like death Do you know where I should go Feels like death Memory, memory, memory Do you know where I should go Feels like death Do

I remember when I first noticed that you liked me back We were sitting down in a restaurant waiting for the check We had made love earlier that day with no strings attached But I could tell that something had changed how you looked at me then Kristen, come right back I've been waiting for you to slip back in bed When you light the candle And on the Lower East Side you're dancing with me now And I'm taking pictures of you with flowers on the wall Think I like you best when you're dressed in black from head to toe Think I like you best when you're just with me and no one else Kristen, come right back I've been waiting for you to slip back in bed When you light the candle And I'm kissing you lying in my room Holding you until you fall asleep And it's just as good as I knew it would be Stay with me I don't want you to leave Kristen, come right back I've been waiting for you to slip back in bed When you light the candle Each Time You Fall In Love Each time you fall in love, it's clearly not enough You sleep all day and drive out in L.A. It isn't safe And each time you kiss a girl, you never know what it's worth You say all of the words they wanna hear It isn't real She took you for a ride in summer baby Lost all your money to her All I wanna know is if you love her, how come you never give in Each time you have a dream you never know what it means You see that open road and never know which way to go And each time you fall in love, it's clearly not enough You sleep all day and drive out in L.A. It isn't safe She took you for a ride in summer baby Lost all your money to her All I wanna know is if you love her, how come you never give in Sunsetz Sunsets We wander through a foreign town Strangely there's nobody else around So you open your dress and show me your tits On the swing set at the old playground And when you go away, I still see you With sunlight on your face in my rear-view Sunsets I wanna hear your voice A love that nobody could destroy Took photographs like Brautigan's book covers that we both adored And when you go away, I still see you With sunlight on your face in my rear-view This always happens to me this way Recurring visions of such sweet days And when you go away, I still see you With sunlight on your face in my rear-view When you go away I still see you With sunlight on your face in my rear-view Apocalypse You leapt from crumbling bridges watching cityscapes turn to dust Filming helicopters crashing in the ocean from way above Got the music in you baby Tell me why Got the music in you baby Tell me why You've been locked in here forever and you just can't say goodbye Kisses on the foreheads of the lovers wrapped in your arms You've been hiding them in hollowed out pianos left in the dark Got the music in you baby Tell me why Got the music in you baby Tell me why You've been locked in here forever and you just can't say goodbye Your lips My lips Apocalypse Your lips My lips Apocalypse Go and sneak us through the rivers Flood is rising up on your knees Oh please Come out and haunt me I know you want me Come out and haunt me Sharing all your secrets with each other since you were kids Sleeping soundly with the locket that she gave you clutched in your fist Got the music in you baby Tell me why Got the music in you baby Tell me why You've been locked in here forever and you just can't say goodbye When you're all alone I will reach for you When you're feeling low I will be there too Flash I'm a flash You were blinded by the love I had I'm a flash The light could only get in through the cracks And you've got to do the right thing Do the right thing, baby You're the white swan in my photograph Do the right thing, do the right thing, baby You're the white swan in my photograph When they crashed the helicopters in my heart, it ripped Cut in half, you saw me lying there bleeding to death And you had to do the right thing Do the right thing, baby You're the white swan in my photograph Do the right thing, do the right thing, baby You're the white swan in my photograph Now I stand on the stage I forget my lines to your play, "Satan's Imagination" And a voice in my head's causing suicide, searching for any way to remember them And you've got to do the right thing Do the right thing, baby You're the white swan in my photograph Do the right thing, do the right thing, baby You're the white swan in my photograph Sweet Watching the video that you sent me The one where you're showering with wet hair dripping You know that I'm obsessed with your body But it's the way you smile that does it for me It's so sweet knowing that you love me Though we don't need to say it to each other Sweet knowing that I love you and running my fingers through your hair It's so sweet Watching the video where you're lying in your red lingerie ten times nightly You know I think your skin's the perfect color But it's always your eyes that pull me under It's so sweet knowing that you love me Though we don't need to say it to each other Sweet knowing that I love you and running my fingers through your hair It's so sweet And I would gladly break it I would gladly break my heart for you And I would gladly break it I would gladly break my heart for you And I would gladly break it I would gladly break my heart for you And I would gladly break it I would gladly break my heart for you It's so sweet knowing that you love me Though we don't need to say it to each other Sweet knowing that I love you and running my fingers through your hair It's so sweet Opera House Built an opera house for you in the deepest jungle And I walked across its stage singing with my eyes closed I've got a love for you I just can't escape All of my love for you cuts me like barbed wire I was meant to love you and always keep you in my life I was meant to love you I knew I loved you at first sight If I abandoned love, I'd be a man without dreams I'd rather be out there staring death right between its eyes now And I can still hear the sound of you crying through the night There in the opera house with no one else for miles I was meant to love you and always keep you in my life I was meant to love you I knew I loved you at first sight I was meant to love you and always keep you in my life I was meant to love you I knew I loved you at first sight Truly Sitting out smoking in the garden of the apartment I reached in to grab your hand and kissed it when you weren't looking You're on the sheets like it's a dirty magazine And I like the way you say exactly what you mean Truly Know that you really don't need to be in love to make love to me Said you wear a new perfume for each city that you visit So you can always remember how it felt to be there And your lips were red in all the pictures that you sent Wearing white or black All leading up to when we met Truly Know that you really don't need to be in love to make love to me Truly Know that you really don't need to be in love to make love to me John Wayne He's got so much love for her But he doesn't know what to do Sitting in the car waiting outside her school He's in for

in love Falling in love Deeper than I've felt it before with you, baby I feel I'm falling in love with all my heart Pure When you walk in the room in a white bodysuit And I say, "Take it off", so you tell me to watch When it's pure, only your love could get me to fall When it's deep, gets so hot and it's so beautiful And the TV is on when we make love Because we get carried away We don't care anyway When it's pure, only your love could get me to fall When it's deep, gets so hot and it's so beautiful Wrapped your hair in a towel, but I watch you let it down And it's all soaking wet as you take me in your mouth And we stare at the street from the back balcony But now all I can see is you undressing for me When it's pure, only your love could get me to fall When it's deep, gets so hot and it's so beautiful
