________________________________________________________________________________ Days Like These: Cold Breakfast.
Side 1: Chambers of Gray Daisies.
Butterfly is a musical project written and performed by Harper Simon and Vincent Gallo. Released without any promotional anticipation in January 2025 via Family Friend Records, the label of the same director, who also handles recording, mixing, mastering, and production, it is distributed by Gray Daisy Films. Perfect in its formal imperfection, sophisticated, atmospheric, analog, elegant, audiophile, unique.
Dissonances and graininess, essential and artisanal artwork, printed in just 3000 copies and only on vinyl, an experimental independent cult, a contraption between Barrett, Drake, and the third The Velvet Underground record.
White T-shirts, bare rooms, mirrors, cats drinking milk on the floors. Dawn, the earth seen from the moon, motels, gray flowers, empty glasses, an album delicate as the flight of a butterfly. Downtown 81.

Side 2: Days of White Soulitudes.
The Music of Butterfly is admirable, perfect for listening to with dim evening lights or for the mood of a cold and sunless morning. Imperfect voices that perfectly settle on the music, perfect organs and analog keyboards, perfect guitars in new forms of material folk and all the wonderful deep basses, electronics that discreetly come and go. An album practically without drums, minimalist in structures, but with great attention to detail, a commendable sound and production.
Confidential, intimate, cold and warm, introverted, refined in aesthetics, a great piece of art.
An album perfect for listening to on days of white solitude, barefoot with a glass of milk.
These Days and a brief vision of "the music of the butterfly" or the magnetic aura of The Music of Butterfly.
