NEW YORK— Curbside Lambsear today released their debut single, “Man The Door.” The six-minute art-punk track features Magdalena Mclean repeating the phrase “With or without, I need you now.” The repetition reportedly caused listeners to forget the meaning of doors. Several fans claimed they were unable to enter or exit buildings. This is not the first time Mclean has experimented with repetitive phrases. Her work with the band caroline often featured sustained vocalizations. She also performs with the Umlauts.
Existential Crisis Ensues
“I listened to ‘Man The Door’ on repeat,” reported attendee Bartholomew Crumb, a self-proclaimed “door enthusiast.” Crumb stated, “After the fifth minute, I forgot what doors were for. I tried to enter my apartment by walking through the wall. It did not go well.” Crumb is currently recovering at home. He blames Curbside Lambsear for his injuries. He also expressed concern over the band’s use of ambient soundscapes. Mclean refused to comment on the specific effects of her music. She directed inquiries to her publicist.
“Magdalena’s work is meant to challenge perception,” said band spokesperson Brenda Glick. Glick serves as Mclean’s personal shaman. “She wants you to question the very fabric of reality. Doors are merely a construct. ‘Man The Door’ is designed to break down those constructs.” Glick claims Mclean’s music has helped her achieve a higher state of consciousness. She also reported achieving full doorlessness last Tuesday. She now exclusively uses secret passages.
The Sound of Nothing
“Man The Door” also features contributions from Jasper Llewellyn and Alfred Lear. The track has been praised for its experimental nature. Critics lauded its ability to dissolve meaning over time. Some listeners reported experiencing profound peace. Others reported intense anxiety. The song’s hypnotic quality is undeniable. It has become a staple at underground art parties. Many attendees report forgetting why they attended these parties. They often leave confused. The phrase “Man The Door” can be heard 87 times. This is according to a recent fan analysis.
At press time, listeners were reportedly trying to “man the door” of their own minds. This has led to several spontaneous philosophical debates. The debates often end in tears. Mclean has not yet announced further releases. She is reportedly working on a new project. It involves the phrase “Please Pass The Butter.”
