about
Should We Make A Baby? is a new wave / bubblegum pop mashup, scrappy around the edges and bursting with energy that spills out over the sides. Alyosha asks the one question everyone asks at some point, and actually comes up with an answer (spoiler alert: It’s a yes!).
It’s all about striving to grow the hell up in a culture of endless adolescence and nihilism. It’s about love, God and the most essential experiences of being a human. It’s so uplifting and life affirming, it doesn’t seem to belong anywhere near 2020 - but that’s exactly why you need to hear it, right now!
Alyosha is a man who wasted his 20s on nihilism, depression and cynicism. Then he woke up past 30, violently threw all of that nonsense on the fire and found a completely new vibe. The upcoming album Shut Up Cain is the ultimate expression of this experience, this blood-letting of bad ideas and philosophies.
