After his diagnosis in 1995 of probable Alzheimer’s disease, American artist William Utermohlen<\/a> made a series of impressive self-portraits. Marc with a C<\/a> is currently doing something similar, but sonically. The productive, genderfluid and idiosyncratic singer-songwriter from Orlando, Florida, born Marc Sirdoreus, has countless releases and lengthy live shows to his name since 2002, but is now struggling with dementia-like symptoms. His latest full-length DIY album Flowers For Analog<\/em><\/a> is the last entry in a trilogy that began with Thanatophobia<\/em><\/a> (2022) and Please Believe In Yourself, Alright?<\/em><\/a> (2023). The eleven new indie pop tunes are as lo-fi and wobbly as they are personal. Dark emotions and light-hearted sarcasm fight for priority, within an effective musical environment that appropriately alternates between melancholic and uplifting. Song titles such as The World’s Gonna Kick The Shit Out Of You<\/em> and Luckily, I’ll Probably Forget!<\/em> already say a lot in that regard. A successful and appealing project, in several respects.<\/p>\n
