If I had it my way, I would just work the whole damn day
until I'm too tired to do anything but sleep
and when I would drop, free from the burden of my thoughts
I wouldn't have to think of how I've wasted all my time
I now apprehend that this is a means without an end,
and I am as far behind as I have ever been.
Some would suggest that you should just do what you like best,
but if they knew what that meant they'd probably disagree,
'cause I hate the things I love and they hate me.
I spent the last six months living aboard a satelite
orbiting miles above the surface of the earth
broadcasting radio waves to a discrete antenna
on an earthly robot that looked quite a bit like me
and I see everything it sees through a small black and white TV
and it does most of what I ask for it to do
but I can't grab its robot jaws and issue one simple request,
"Please just stop filling me with fuel."
The gorgeous new single from this Belfast group has the bright, ringing guitars of C86 and the soft-focus vocals of shoegaze. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 15, 2022
