sign crushes motorist

From his home in Donegal, Ireland, Liam McCay makes lo-fi guitar music and scatters it across the internet under several monikers. He’s extremely prolific, but his gentle, impossibly sad songs as sign crushes motorist are what brought him attention—and millions of listeners. Born in 2005, the solo musician turns to ’90s slowcore for inspiration. A sign crushes motorist song is, indeed, a slow, hushed affair. The jangling electric guitar and McCay’s voice on his 2022 album, I’ll Be Okay, sound submerged, and even the emotions feel muffled. By his second release, 2023’s Hurting, he’d gotten more sophisticated at layering in order to conceal or uncover parts of his bedroom drones. When the lyrics do surface enough to be intelligible, they express shocking despair. “Nobody normal hurts like this,” he sings on “Death of a Heart”. Strangely, his soothing melodies have a way of evoking profound serenity, regardless of the song’s content. It’s likely that this very juxtaposition is what endears him to his many fans.
