Pipe Dreams is a new six-song EP from Los Angeles based FINGERS CUT MEGAMACHINE, the oddly named solo endeavor of ex-OSKER frontman Devon Williams. Venturing further away from his punk past, Devon has become an accomplished singer/songwriter, playing beautifully discordant Americana awash in torch and twang. And though FINGERS CUT often play against the grain, Devon's lyrics are honest and intimate, telling all too personal stories of love, heartbreak and regret. Songs that are at once catchy and strange, from a voice that croons with unsettling seduction, Williams wears his heart on his sleeve right under the chip on his shoulder. Recorded again with Mike Trujillo at Succulent Sounds Studios, this unexpected short player follows the acclaimed self-titled FINGERS CUT full length released earlier this year. The perfect accoutrement to what many consider one of the year's best releases and what Alternative Press Magazine calls simply "excellent".
