you can't wait to hear my voice/selling the rebellion like we had any choice/in your brand new car with a brand new crush/guess i had to guess what was best for both of us/check me out, it won't be long/before i've been through all of it before my hit song

in her room/all alone/singing Queen/into her videophone/kinda sad/did she know/did you write/that you were leaving/on the seat of her bike/made her mad/now it's gone/whatever you had/T-Rex on vinyl/plus a photograph/the new math/(no way)/(don't say)/(tough break, man, you get what you want)

maybe there's something about us/that needs to be said/probably not/maybe it's just time/to shut up/to give up/to lock your will safely away/to be direct/I never had your attention/I had your affection/was that enough?/prolly not/and I can't stand it - i'm sorry/i'm gone/but wait/i'm back/i'm back

Don't Die

|
when you die you go to the bottom of the sea/monsters there with eyes on stalks/it's horrifying/you watch their bodies glow in silence/this is the only light/so don't die/when you die you go to work burning receipts/coal and ash, it's not so bad/a bit depressing/ok, it's not how you had pictured it happening/so don't die/cuz it's totally fucked the way everything's moving backwards/and you're forced to watch all old men grow young again/and live with hope after seeing regret take it's toll/and you hear someone whisper from the back/but you can't quite make it out/although it sounds like they said/don't die

We Have Amnesia Sometimes
by Yo La Tengo

Me and my friend used to go on drives all the time, and a lot of the time i asked what he was playing, and a majority of the songs were from Yo La Tengo. And since i went and listened to And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside-Out i was fan. Never thought i’d buy one of their records for myself.

Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way).

Wonderful little EP. Most of these songs would have fit beautifully on Luna's most recent LP. "California Blue", in particular, is magnificent.

"Oxford Drama" EP
by Oxford Drama
Sweet pop from Poland. Warm synths and subtle beats make way for Małgorzata Dryjańska's charming voice.

Goodbye, Cagoule World
by Benjamin Shaw
Benjamin Shaw isn't all Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now, there's also beauty, noise, and a shoulder to lean on.

The project of 24-year-old Åsa Söderqvist; the new album harbors a clear sound, but is still just as quirky as her previous work.

A Carnival of Sorts: An R.E.M. covers compilation
by Various Artists
supported by 4 fans who also own “Kandi's Rad”
Although I do agree I'd prefer more focus on the IRS era, this is a really solid collection of covers that delivers some unique takes. Totally inspired me to go back and listen to the original albums as well.
