Don’t be fooled by the whimsical music video for Ok Cowgirl’s “Larry David” in which the band members are made up like the titular, legendary comedy writer and actor. The gloriously effusive guitar solo that comes in the middle of the first half of the song lets off some of the steam of the sentiments expressed in the song, the kind anyone with any level of honesty and sensitivity has felt like everything is, yes, fucked, in everyday life even if you’re living what some might consider a comfortable life though you may be struggling with scrambling to barely get by and dealing with situations to make that happen that push you to the edge and to the breaking point day after day. It wears you out on a deep level. But Ok Cowgirl has turned some of that existential exhaustion into catharsis with the fuzzy guitar pop of this song and making it into a song that can indulge some moments of humor in its evocation of life’s, mundane daily challenges that can grind you down over time.
