"Pyramid Scheme" HD FLAC Single (96kHz/24bit)

Hurray for the Riff Raff's single “Pyramid Scheme” amplifies the spirit of resilience and rebellion of their acclaimed 2024 album The Past Is Still Alive. Armed with poetic prowess and personal truths, the song conveys a pervasive contempt for the dark side of the Internet and the alienating, undermining effects it has on artists and outsiders. Nods to Billy the Kid, Calamity Jane, Darby Crash, and Frida Kahlo are wrapped in melodies and arrangements that are equal parts scrappy and saccharine, backed by Phil Cook on organ, Yan Westerlund on drums, Hand Habits’ Meg Duffy on electric guitar, and The Past Is Still Alive producer Brad Cook on bass.
