It's something bigger than me, it's something bigger than you.
It's more than just what I wish I could or couldn't do.
When the world crashes down around us,
we will remember the ones who found us -
but when that time comes I wonder who would follow through.
The fights are hideous, people insidious, a doomsday every day
It's not enough to sit and hope that all of it will promptly go away
I wish that things could change, but I'm a little late, a naive thing to say.
They prey on our fears this impossible year, but we are stronger than them.
We need heroes but all we have are people who died.
We need answers but all we ever get are lies.
Sometimes solutions just pour out of you -
other times you only do what you can do -
and times like this all that you can do is to try.
Between the offers and the empty promises to make life great again,
the thrones could wrongly fill with knights of ignobility whose hate won't end
We see no other way, weasels and parrots say we'll have to wait til then
They prey on our fears this impossible year, but we are stronger than
Liars and Cheaters and Cold Bottom Feeders
Rattlesnake Charmers and Blond Suits of Armour
Angels and Sinners and Losers and Winners
Monsters and Robots and Thanksgiving Dinners
Wet Socks and Dry Eyes and Handshakes and Goodbyes
Exes and Best Friends and New Blood and Has Beens
and Headlines and Footnotes and Heroes and Villains
and feeling pretentious for having opinions...
Two Ghosts is my all-time favourite album. The narrative songwriting coupled with the inventive turntablist musical style sets the scene for a uniquely fun listen. Marck Rivers
Counterfeit Arcade is equal parts haunting and catchy, with eerie piano-driven lines and powerful singing. Put this album on and have Halloween all year. Marck Rivers
The lyrics throughout Twin Fantasy are so relatable and poignant, putting into words all the mixed emotions of growing up. The semi-symmetrical structure of the album rewards close listening. Marck Rivers
Neoclassical-tinged ambient music with a romantic bent, awash in elegant jazz pianos, enchanting vocals, and softly strummed guitars. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 5, 2023
Introspective, homespun folk tunes from John Donne that feel informed by the sugary bleakness of '80s and '90s indie pop. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 1, 2023
