"Screen Crawlers" is the first song off of Old Pup's forthcoming record, Incognito Lounge, which releases April 22 via Hear Here Records. The song is a paradox. The lyrics are sparse and touch on the disillusioned reality that technology--especially social media--has had on humanity and its ability to be present and self-aware. The instrumentation is upbeat and positive, with a catchy harmonica run and mostly major chords. Towards the end, the two competing moods merge and form the eerie outro.
