lyrics
As we pulled into East Lawn
One gloomy Sunday,
Two men in black appeared
Under the marble archway.
My sister and I said thank you
As they escorted us.
Sheltered from the rain,
All is shadow under their umbrellas.
Passing through the hall
Of long-forgotten urns,
I thought it would be better
to be burned than in the dirt.
As we reached the inner sanctum
The funeral was underway.
The priestess told us to go up
And pray.
“I love you”
Would have been enough for him I think,
But when I opened up my mouth,
No words came out.
So I just went up to the altar
Holding two
White roses:
One for the car, one for the coffin.
Thom's pick: Slowdive feels just as current and engaging as ever on this one, maybe just as timeless as Souvlaki. From start to finish, it's an absolute soundbath: warm, lush and soaked in melancholy. Damper
Chris' pick: This was a huge return for Crime in Stereo after a 13 year break. Glitchy soundscaping, catchy vocal hooks and attention to detail make this album a fully cohesive listening experience. Damper
Phil's pick: I've had this album on nonstop since it came out. Nick DePirro's guitar is truly incredible and Aric Improta makes excellent use of space as he weaves together layers of rhythm on drums. Damper
Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too. Lu
