Music

Puff called the EP "strictly bedroom pop" as the entire album was self-produced in her own home, aside from "6 Feet" which was recorded by Dylan Brady in Los Angeles, California.[1] Much of the EP was recorded during lockdown, which Puff said "has been a detriment to many people's mental health, my own included, but goddamn it if I haven't been making some bops here and there!"[2] The song "T-Shirt" was written by Puff pre-transition while still in high school.[4]

"Do You See Us?" previously appeared on her two-track EP Jenny Durkan, Resign in Disgrace. The track is a "call-out" to Seattle mayor Jenny Durkan, who Puff "holds responsible for condoning police violence and causing 'the citizens of a historically gay neighborhood to be gassed on the first day of Pride Month'".[2] The track also pays tribute to Summer Taylor and Cherleena Lyles, two people murdered by Seattle police.[2] "Safety First" is described as "thoroughly bedroom pop, with stylistic nods to mid-2000s indie rock like Beck and The Strokes seen through a more contemporary lo-fi lens".[1]
