Someone outta knock you down a couple of pegs. Have you heard what I said? They're gonna have to walk you out. You opened your mouth, what was that all about? Now you can't leave. I could write them an angry letter. Making things just a little better mimics loose change that's in my pocket: nearly useless and inconvenient. Sometimes half-mast is too high. I drive and get only red lights. Someone outta knock you down a couple of flights. You've avoided this fight. Then they outta steal your crown, divide the wealth, spread it amongst ourselves. How will it end? If my place goes up in flames it will last for several days, but it's okay. Rectified through insurance claims. All friends and family swarm to the front lawn as we keep warm by the fire, with no desire to move on. If my place goes up in flames they'll extinguish it the same day, but that is okay. I don't need its contents anyway. My friends and family ignore. It's just me trying to keep warm on the front lawn. Everything I had is gone. Someone outta knock you down, but I don't have the strength to make it so. Someone outta steal your crown and spread the wealth divide amongst ourselves. Wish someone would have let me know they replaced the "bad" in front of luck with "Joe."
Been following Somos for many years, feeling that they had an opus in them...well, here it is. Driving pop-punk sensibilities lend an upbeat tone in contrast to the grim lyrical proceedings, and they absolutely pull it off. Evocative music that's been on repeat for me all month long. RIP, Phil PaintedDogs
This is what I remember emo and pop punk music *sounding* like in the 90s and 2000s, but not what it actually sounded like. basking in the glow is an emotionally mature update of those times, and much appreciated. thepirc
Terry Venemous is releasing new music every 3 weeks this year. His latest EP is sumptuous art pop with a wry sense of detachment.
