Self Care

by Eevie Echoes & The Locations

supported by

evathebaeva been super excited for the recent eevie Echoes drops, and honestly it feels like this is what everything's been building up to: Self Care is such a tight little package that feels like it fit as much emotional catharsis per square inch as possible. And the new folk punk and ska sounds pay off in a major way, I don't think I'll be able to get I Feel Okay Today out of my head for the rest of the month Favorite track: I Feel Okay Today (ft. She/Her/Hers).

1.	Off Grid (ft. Bergie & The Magic Bag) 02:38	lyrics	buy track
I cant see a future for myself I'd love to grow old with you But the afterlife is calling I wanna slit my wrists and jump off a bridge but i might just break my ribs I wanna go off grid Somewhere you'll never see me again So i don't dash your expectations I wanna be myself Get the fuck out of this skin But if I did that I'd make your head spin I wanna go off grid Hey hey! I wanna go off grid Hey hey! You call me sir You call me son I've asked you to stop more than once Blind to my pain You make me desperate When I'm with you I'm defenseless I wanna run away To another state Cut ties with you It's fate I wanna go off grid Somewhere you'll never see me again So i don't dash your expectations I wanna be myself Get the fuck out of this skin But if I did that I'd make your head spin
2.	Dear Doll (ft. Tape Girl) 02:20	lyrics	buy track
Dear doll She/they, poly pan girl online Dear doll You're my transition goal And 14 thousand people know why You pass And you still have that sultry voice You don't look plastic I wish I could be like that They say comparison's the enemy of confidence But it's hard to build self esteem When you're the only that sees you as a beauty queen It's always "Wow he's gotten so big, he looks so handsome" It's always "When you gonna shave that mess of your head, and loose that gut you're too young for that" Dear doll She/they poly pan girl online Dear doll You're my transition goal And 14 thousand people know why You pass And you still have a sultry voice You don't look plastic I wish I could be like that You'll post sexy ass photos say "good morning say it back" Tweet out of pocket shit and everyone follows you back Your name carries weight in niche internet spaces And when you're "boymoding" you just look like a tomboy Want FFS but I really don't see why I might just think you're pretty and a real big flirt But I'm dying to look half as good as you do in a skirt Dear doll She/they, poly, pan girl online Dear doll You're my transition goal And 14 thousand people know why You pass And you still have a sultry voice You don't look plastic I wish I could be like that
3.	I Feel Okay Today (ft. She/Her/Hers) 03:05	lyrics	buy track
I went to therapy today And we had a great talk The sun shines and it's autumn season Got my emotional support denim on Last week I wanted to die To jump in front a train I couldn't see the future But things are looking up today My cheekbones look full And I love my smile My freshly shaven face is nice and soft I'm usually a downer I'll let that go someday But until that nirvana I feel okay today So sure The apocalypse is nigh And sure The internet is rotting our minds The reactionary right grows in strength everyday While abortions made illegal in a dozen fuckin states Oh sure I wanna burn it down Yeah sure I wanna fight the system Wanna make a better world But sometimes I just need a break From the revolution My cheekbones look full And I love my smile My freshly shaven face is nice and soft I'm usually so angry I'll let that go someday But until that nirvana I feel okay today My cheekbones look full And I love my smile My freshly shaven face is nice and soft I'm usually a fuckin mess I'll let that go someday But until that nirvana I feel okay today I feel okay today

about

Self Care is a sister EP to self diagnosis. Although sonically very different and inspired heavily by folk punk, ska, and powerpop, the messages are very similar and it serves as a period piece of trying to get better. It's about tackling new struggles with regard to life, transition, and mental health. Life isn't perfect but we can take pride in the work we've done to get where we are and continue to work on ourselves to come out the other end healthier than when we started. Unlike Self Diagnosis which was very focussed on just what Eevie was able to do as an artist, Self Care invites new friends Tape Girl, Bergie & The Magic Bag and Emma Grrrl of She/Her/Hers to the musical fold to further build out her sound. The short EP ends with "I Feel Okay Today" a declaration of pride in progress and celebrating the small victories.
