It could be you and me in a love hotel
I could never spell it out
Walking on that crooked line
With that sparrow on the foggy sea
I’ll drink the brine
Just hook it up for me
I will dig my feet into the beach
While the waves crash
Sitting on my back
Was the little earth I latched onto
Burning while we watched it yawning?
Eyes made of plasma
While the pigeons had their spasms
We were born to have sciatica
It could be doom and trees in a love hotel
I could never spell it out
Stalking on that crooked vine
With that sparrow over all the trees
I’ll take a hike
I will live in leaves
I will tumble down into the creek
While snakes rattle beneath my backpack
They will slither in with claptrap
Just a little venom sinks in the bite, fast
The Times had me yawning
While the weapons had them fawning
I am guided by the beauty of our lamb
You will die
Bye bye
Oh my
You will die
Alive

dream pop with unique, soaring vocals that cut right through lush guitar chords, captures the magic of 90s shoegaze while not resorting to retro cliches, and a fave: cool instrumental interludes! :o Loosie
patched together weird vocal melodies and harmonies, extended noise sections, free jazz/contemporary classical music influence but never in a stuffy way, just a party where everyone's invited =D Loosie
