Modwheelmood (also typeset as ModWheelMood or modwheelmood and abbreviated as MWM) is an Electronic-Alternative band from Los Angeles, California formed by Alessandro Cortini (who is also part of the Nine Inch Nails live lineup from 2005 to 2008 and more recently in 2013) and former Abandoned Pools guitarist Pelle Hillström in 1998.
History
Modwheelmood formed in 1998, initially as a project entitled Gift?, which later developed into a full music project after Cortini's experimentation with "heavy loops and haunting synth passes integrated with melodic songwriting" and through collaboration with Hillström. Modwheelmood are named after the mod wheel, a controller typically mounted on the left hand of the keyboard.

Sunday Morning
slowly
repeating
no-one else has heard me say
nothing
really
i'm only
receding
walk for miles but here I stay
nothing
really
sunday
morning
close my eyes so i can see
nothing
really
another
warning
another answer to repeat
nothing
really
slowly
repeating
sunday
morning
