about
Pictures of You’ is one of those songs that encompasses everything that I love about post-punk music: It's hauntingly gorgeous, authentically sad, and brilliantly creative and original. We decided to cover the song for live performances before we began our first tour, because it's one of those songs where you can get lost in the moment, and the audiences always enjoyed it in kind.
During that run of dates, Emily began to take photos with a disposable camera and a Polaroid. It's funny, because when you're on tour, you go to so many cool places and meet so many wonderful people, but it can be hard to remember everything. These pictures that Emily took serve as a physical memory holder now, and it reminds me of how much passion and love we put into our music and live performances, as well as all of the wonderful people we've connected with. We decided to record our version of ‘Pictures of You’ to reproduce that feeling.

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days.
Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles
