1. So this is Jacob, the Brazilian dude who delivers those outrageously huge Progressive bangers! Best to be played at high volume while the hot summer sun is burning down on lots and lots of naked skin- just because it’s the perfect sound for this situation.One moment the groove only consists of an ultra-fat bass line accompanied by some minimal rhythms, the next moment the whole thing is just exploding, bursting into a multi-dimensional universe of intertwined harmonies, subtle psychoacoustics sparkling in between, cascades of uplifting rhythms... just purely positive catchiness.
2. Jacob are an American experimental noise/drone project from Milkwaukee, Wisconsin. The band consists of David Cordero (also of Úrsula) and Marco Serrato (also of Orthodox), who both provide production and instrumentation. The duo first collaborated on the arrangements that would become the Emma soundtrack. With a mutual love for sci fi and horror films, they decided to collaborate further under the moniker of Jacob. Their debut album under the name, entitled The Ominous, was released in March 2013.

Self-obsession
In Jacob's song "Obsession," the lyrics depict a struggle with self-obsession and a desire to break free from it. The repetition of the phrase "give me the word" speaks to the need for guidance and direction in breaking free from this unhealthy fixation on the self. The line "Will I die this way" suggests a fear of being consumed by this self-obsession and never escaping its grasp. The singer yearns to be able to just be themselves, but the self-obsession acts as a barrier to this.
