Bio

The Urbane Decay is songs written and recorded by Jakob Rehlinger (since 2002). They're usually poppy, sad and somewhat tragic songs about his love-life (described on an ex-girlfriend's blog as "diary entries, the kind covered in pink fun-fur wih a lock on the side"). Some people call these ditties "emotionally devastating" while others have called them "songs about lonely people, for lonely people, by a lonely person" (http://backofthebook.ca/). That's fair enough.
