Late 2014.
lyrics
oh no, on your own again
bell tone, all alone again
poor thing, dug your grave again
smash the lock on your door—that's all I'm saying
to loose the chains of fear and doubt
say "I'm in," or say "amen"
but I couldn't say anything at all
I wonder why?
sunless void filled with noise, that's what I play in
"oh, us? we're just waiting for the drums to come in"
I don't know what sort of song you think you're expecting
oh, what a strange ordeal I've been faced with
to loose the chains of fear and doubt
say "I'm in," or say "amen"
but I couldn't get my mouth to move at all
so call it a draw
bell tone, all alone again
poor thing, dug your grave again
smash the lock on your door—that's all I'm saying
to loose the chains of fear and doubt
say "I'm in," or say "amen"
but I couldn't say anything at all
I wonder why?
sunless void filled with noise, that's what I play in
"oh, us? we're just waiting for the drums to come in"
I don't know what sort of song you think you're expecting
oh, what a strange ordeal I've been faced with
to loose the chains of fear and doubt
say "I'm in," or say "amen"
but I couldn't get my mouth to move at all
so call it a draw

Mighty Social Lion
by The J. Arthur Keenes BandHonestly, I don't know if I'd even be making music today had I never found the J. Arthur Keenes Band. This LP from the project is easily among my all-time favorite pop albums.

Flower Of Life [LP]
by Taleen Kali"Flower Of Life" yanks riot grrrl south through the unmistakable garage psych sound indispensable to the last 20-odd years of rock music out of Los Angeles.
