Who else is writing ballads with lines like “As you f*** my face, for a hundred days…” ? ( Taylor Swift mondegreens notwithstanding.) There’s something deeply entertaining about a skilled pop musician making something so dumb so unbelievably polished. ‘Sorry Bro (I Love You)’ is an extended no-homo joke that has genuine sweetness lurking under its smirk.Ĭloser ‘Give Thanks to You’ might be the funniest, darkest thing Electra has penned so far. ‘My Agenda’s protagonists are the crazed SJWs turning the frogs gay with witchcraft. ‘M’lady’ is a fedora-tipping dom who’s literally mouth-breathing at the breakdown. Its characters are people that are often the butt of the joke. Embarrassing and uncomfortable thoughts are its lifeblood.

Their follow-up, My Agenda, is even more intense. Songs like ‘Daddy Like’ and ‘Career Boy’ were catchy, layered songs about absurd machismo and power fantasies, delivered with a deadpan stare.
