Will Wood and the Tapeworms track, Mr. Capgras Encounters a Secondhand Vanity: Tulpamancer's Prospoganosia/Pareidolia (As Direct Result of Trauma to the Fusiform Gyrus)
Will Wood and the Tapeworms originally released this track on the album, Self-Ish, which is the second album by Will Wood and was released on August 23rd, 2016.
Overall, Will Wood and the Tapeworms can't be pinned as one single genre, as they fit under many, and the degrees of these genres is constantly under fluctuation. Maily however, the genres they fall under can be described as rock and roll, cabaret, alternative, indie, and experimental. In this specific track however, this song can fall under alternative rock. While this isn't the onky genre this track is, it's the overall genre.
While I personally have only heard of Will Wood very little, @felix-krain recommended Will Wood and the Tapeworms to me and @kingdescole told me about two tracks I should listen to by Will Wood! This track is one of those two actually! Thank you to both for these wonderful recommendations!
Mr Capgras, for short, is a song detailing the thoughts and almost idea form of the Capgras delusion, which is that someone has been replaced by a complete replica. The song surrounds the singer talking about how someone else is trying to replace themselves because their thoughts and actions aren't them, which circles back to another ideal actually. This ideal, while I don't have an official term for it, considers that your thoughts and actions are not 'you', as they're simply habits that you do mindlessly. For example, the very way that you speak or what makes you happy. While those reflect your personality, they're just a habit part of your mind, you know how to form sentences in your tongue, and you know what makes you happy. Overall this track discusses both of these in whole, and more, starting off with the person in theory trying to replace themselves [Capgras delusion] and by the end realizing they're not even themselves so no matter who replaces them, somebody could always be them as they're not 'themselves' [ideal that you aren't you]. While there are many more references to ideals and syndromes such as these, those two are the main ones. This sole manifestation of these ideals, in a wonderfully flowed song form? Absolutely wonderful, not to mention it has such a fantastic beat to it! Personally for me I have to say this is definitely a very good track!
Definitely recommend! 10/10
