lyrics

way out on the bow is where you'll find me,
waiting for someone to come along and make up my mind.
I can't face a life of commitment, the permanence and faith
that comes with it; I won't reach for a single fig tonight.

will I wither by my own hand,
or be handsome rewarded for me forever fear of staying in one place?

even when they know, I guard my secrets.
they might all be small, but they belong right here
with my forever fear of staying in one place.

ceremonies don't comfort me.
I cannot be wrong, I'm right.

KID
by V I O L E N T M A E

Sophomore release from Violent Mae. Poignant songwriting, stunning vocals with a strong Buckley influence, and enduring melodies. Two-piece from CT that's making some of our favorite songs right now. Quiet Giant

Laundry Day

Fatal Film

Garage rock from New London. Packs a punch and takes some unexpectedly beautiful turns. Between the power and the melodies, we could listen to Fatal Film all day. Quiet Giant

There is a lot to hear here and unsurprisingly it's a mixed bag, but Passing Strange's stunning arrangement of "Tourniquet" blows me away. They make it sound like it was ALWAYS a piano ballad, and their contribution was to rock it up with lively drums. summer villain
