“HDTV” is the pop-tinged post-punk new single from Portland jack of all trades The Ghost Ease. The opening feedback sets the tone for stripped-down memorable garage rock riffs that act as the engine for the repetitive yet endearing “I Won’t Be Wrong” mantra. The tension-releasing bridge and fragmented guitar solo add a clever layer of songwriting chops that’ll keep you coming back for another listen.
“HDTV” (which stands for ‘High Definition Telepathic Vision’) is an anthem to personal liberation during times of feeling stuck and helpless within a toxic enmeshment. “HDTV” reminds us that the power is in our own hands to live in alignment with our true spirit. It’s common for society to stigmatize choices done for the self as “selfish,” yet “HDTV” rejects this puritanical inversion of truth—assuring the listener, “I won’t be wrong, ‘cause I stay true,” asserting self-supporting choices are not only essential to self-care and personal progress but benefit all involved.
