I’m not gonna play this game
Don’t you want all my love?
You push then pull away
And I know I’m not strong enough
The push‑pull of modern romance: arms open, then locked; promises of “serious” turning slippery. Atlanta dark synth pop duo Teardux’s latest single All About You traces that dizzying orbit—love rationed out, attention weaponized—until self‑respect finally snaps the tether. It’s the second you stop auditioning for someone else’s interest and start choosing yourself.
Lit by after‑hours neon, Teardux drive “All About You” with a mechanized, New Order‑leaning pulse—the True Faith march and Bizarre Love Triangle‑style synth stabs—then lace it with the dusky ache of Clan of Xymox’s “Imagination” from Twist of Shadows. Valerie Andra’s vocals whip, spiral, and churn with southern charm and ardent reverb, while Dylan Anderson tightens the screws with icy 80s-style synths and crisp dancefloor snares.
“All About You is about a significant other keeping you at a distance and not sharing the deep connection you hold for them in return. All they choose to see is themselves and keeping their best interest first—stringing you along while you just want the same energy back,” says the band.
Every chorus draws the boundary a little darker—“take me serious” as a mantra, the plea to stop making it “all about you” flipping the dynamic from fixation to clarity. It’s a bruised, dance‑floor reckoning: cold light, warm blood, and a heart finally refusing the half‑measure.
