Infinity Repeating Lyrics

Feat. Julian Casablancas+The Voidz

Previously an unreleased 2013 demo, this track is a deceptively meaningful in that: on the surface it's just about meeting up with an old friend on happenstance. They bump into one another on a weekday, serendipity. And then it turns from one thing (friendship) into something else (sexual). As bare-bones as “Infinity Repeating” is lyrically, there is something philosophical about its theme and message. This is one of those instances where the song’s video helps amplify our understanding. The video makes it clear that evolution has taken us from animal to artificial intelligence, culminating in a robot racing in super human speed & imploding back into the circle that begins the video. The song lyrics emphasize the notion that biology transcends ethics. The friends sleep together because they have a need, a want, a deep drive to do so. This has nothing to do with pleasure and everything to do with biological compulsion.
