about

As cliche as it is to comment on, it's an undeniably declarative move when an already-established artist releases a self-titled album. For German Error Message, the album in question arrives two decades into the project's lifespan, exuding the comfort of a long overdue homecoming. Those who have been following in the meantime will instantly recognize the familiar warmth of Paul Kintzing's songwriting and production, but where previous albums may have built insular and hermetic worlds with their hushed delivery, German Error Message sprawls outwards, unfolding as a series of nested home-recording experiments disguised as folk songs. Not quite a summary of nor a full departure from the sound Kintzing has spent years slowly building on, German Error Message is both strange and familiar, akin to reconnecting with a friend you'd lost touch with, and missed more than you realized. You compare the disparities of your shared memories over and over, well into the night, reacquainting yourself with the feelings you thought you'd grown distant from - they're still inside you, just buried a little deeper than before. The reward is in the digging.
