With “Piece of Gum,” the fourth single from the album, Pet Owner leans into a driving energy. Distorted guitars and glowing synth textures carry the track forward like thoughts that have been waiting far too long to be said out loud. Her silky, airy voice floats just above it all, conveying the emotional weight of things left unsaid and the quiet consequences of keeping them buried, until we ultimately reach the epiphany of finally revealing that “it was too good to be true.” It’s a small window into what it might feels like: tense, reflective, and quietly powerful.

“FOMO” traces its roots to a snow-covered mountain cabin in Switzerland, where winter solitude sparked a hypnotic synth arpeggio and a fresh wave of inspiration. Working with producer Amadeus Fries, Pet Owner built that spark into “dancy synths, warm analog traces, and a steady pulse,” creating a sound with subtle 80s influences that still feels completely her own. The artist has always had a left-of-center approach to composition, and this song is no exception. At one point, you can actually hear dogs barking in the background, pulling you into a vivid, almost cinematic moment that makes the track feel alive and strangely familiar. Gentle guitars, softly blurred textures, and vocals that drift between narrative and confession make the whole thing feel intimate and expansive at once.
