Get off your cloud and plummet faster to the ground
Believe me when i say there's not much time
Cause the crash is happening fast, shake off the cobwebs in your mind
A machine is breathing beating out the sound of our demise
Look back, you know it's true, no we don't wanna go, back into the night
Said i shouldn't get close to you, cause I could never know the secrets that you've got to hide
Maybe break the chain, or break myself tonight
Otherwise, to my knees and concede to the bad bad vibes
I been coming back to you, I hear you howling for miles
Believe me when I say, I'm much too high
We crawled outta the mountains, we crawled outta the caves and now, we can
Bathe in the glow, of the static age
Look back, I know it's true, no we don't wanna go, back into the night
Said i shouldn't get close to you, cause I could never know secrets that you've got to hide
Maybe break the chain, or break myself tonight
Otherwise, to my knees and concede to the bad bad vibes
Holding out and holding on to what the heart decides
In a deadly game that we play to see who makes it out alive?
Now I'm kissing the ring, she's the queen of the bad bad vibes
Rip-roaring power pop with all the deadpan wit and guitar noise of early Weezer and legitimized by the songwriting chops of Tom Petty and Elvis Costello. North by North
Lost track of these guys for a couple years, then saw the Tiny Desk concert come up in my feed. I've had the album on loop on Spotify since Friday.
This song in particular has been stuck in my head all afternoon. quiksilv26
A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
