La Fin Absolute du Monde (French for “the absolute end of the world”) punctuate their experimental love songs with violent timbres and tone changes to call attention to how often and quickly emotions can change in relationships. There’s a lot of different elements in their dark ambient tracks that are seemingly at odds: “Cavalier”’s flickering snare strokes and jagged guitar drones bump against the vocalist’s spacey, hushed croon. But the married San Francisco duo of Jason and Cyndy Myles harmoniously weave these opposing sounds into a swayable ballad — and, despite the volatile subject matter that they explore, the two never sound faraway on “Cavalier.” “The lyrics reflect the thought processes of trying to understand human nature,” the duo says. “Because when we can understand why people do crazy things, then we can certainly accept and love more openly and honestly.” Which is refreshingly affirmative — especially for a song called “Cavalier.”
