Sitar 22,207 Posted June 28, 2013 "Mike Hadreas, also known as Perfume Genius is a singer/songwriter from Seattle, Washington, US. Perfume Genius began when he moved from New York to his mother’s home in Everett, WA. In these relatively isolated conditions, Hadreas felt a compulsion to make music and began composing fragile yet brutally honest songs on the piano. By 2008 he had set up a MySpace page and began offering his music there, along with similarly spare and evocative homemade music videos. Turnstile released the single Mr. Peterson — the tale of a suicidal, pedophile high-school teacher — in 2009. Perfume Genius’ full-length debut, Learning, which presented its tracks in the order in which they were recorded, arrived and released on June 21, 2010." New album Too Bright out September 23! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMIQN_tAJaQ Anyone? 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elllipsis 1,441 Posted June 30, 2013 i am part of the sadcore club accept me Ditto! "Put Ur Back N 2 It" is such an amazing & heartbreaking album (especially when you know the story behind it), EVERYONE should listen to it at least once. My favourite song is "Hood" - You would never call me baby / If you knew me truly / Oh but I waited so long for your love 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sitar 22,207 Posted July 1, 2013 i am part of the sadcore club accept me Welcome child. Ditto! "Put Ur Back N 2 It" is such an amazing & heartbreaking album (especially when you know the story behind it), EVERYONE should listen to it at least once. My favourite song is "Hood" - You would never call me baby / If you knew me truly / Oh but I waited so long for your love OMG a fan prior to this thread, how cool! Yes, I think "Hood" is my favorite as well, it's just too short. Case with most of his songs--like he's getting too emotional so he has to make every song 2 minutes or something He has so much sadness even in his love songs. I swear, "Dark Parts" has brought me to tears before. I think the second album is the best, have you heard Learning? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've cried a couple of times while listening to that album, I'm not even ashamed to admit it. Have you ever seen him live? I'm not gonna lie, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't make it through one of his live shows without crying. His music is just so intimate, and sad, and delicate... Yeah, I've heard it. I prefer the second one as well, but Learning was really haunting too (although so, so short!). I only listened to it after Put Ur Back N 2 It though - I was so mindblown with it, it was hard to top that! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deleted User 1,353 Posted July 1, 2013 I love him, been listening to him for years now...I think he needs to polish his sound a little bit, but he's amazing...The lyrics really show how he has crossed ways with hurt... 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The lyrics really show how he has crossed ways with hurt... I hope not, to be honest... I think it really adds to that fragile and intimate (almost diary-like) quality of his music. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
