It's Up to You
01:53
|
|||
|
Indeed I'd like to be your friend,
It's getting hard on me,
When I'm awake every moment I spend,
Is just another step into the dark,
It's up to you.
Every day, every week,
No time in between,
I'm lying here all by myself,
Wishing it'd come easy,
It's up to you.

Marker Me Darker

Marker me darker, dog throw me a bone,
I wanna feel you like you're left all alone,
I wanna feel you like you're left all alone.
Marker me darker, dog give me a home,
I'm gonna bite you, gonna hear you moan,
I'm gonna bite you, gonna hear you moan,
Marker me darker, put me in a dark door,
So I know how you feel.
Give me a sweater, I got me a chill,
Marker me darker, dog, and give me your fill,
Show me what ails you, what puts you in the dark,
Marker me darker, put me in the dark door,
So I know how you feel.
Marker me darker, dog lend me a hand,
Liquor me quicker that's what makes me understand,
Throw me a bottle, put me in it if you can,
Marker me darker, put me in a dark door,
So I know how you feel.

Oceans
03:20
|
|||
|
I've got oceans in my pockets,
Eyes that run for miles,
Guts of steel and more,
I see all your angels,
Coming on a dark horse,
Everything and more.
And I, I can see for miles,
And I, got tendencies of wild ones,
It's like one hundred years on fire,
But I'm cold.
I saw you at the cabin,
Is that a talking bird?
Sailors talk I'm sure,
Waited but nothing happened,
So I just sat and stared,
Silence from the cabin.
And I, I can see for miles,
And I, got tendencies of wild ones,
It's like one hundred years on fire,
But I'm cold.
And if it ever gets too cold,
Believe me I'd be comfortable,
Filling up the holes,
Oh and if I ever second guess,
The reading of the temperature,
I know that I'll be right one day soon.
And I, I can see for miles,
And I, got tendencies of wild ones,
It's like one hundred years on fire,
But I'm cold.

Hey Man (It's Alright)
05:55
|
|||
|
I met Suzie on the fourth of July,
With a broken tooth and a wink in her eye,
In a broke down car with a headlight out,
She was leaning against the door on the old flood route.
We pulled into the dealership half past 3,
Just a crowbar and a hammer, Suzie and me,
She beat in the window of an old used car,
Then lit the can of gas with a lit cigar,
I said, "Hey man,
It's alright."
Well the sun was coming up, steam was rising from the street,
We picked up a siren in the July heat,
There was no one around, nothing to see,
Suzie took my pistol and she shot it for me.
We made it in the bathroom of an Exxon station,
Suzie's lips were smiling like a pink carnation,
I threw the clerk a dollar and we hit the track,
We was bound for Raleigh, never coming back.
I said, "Hey man,
It's alright."
Suzie took the wheel over a river bridge,
She was gunning that thing like a son of a bitch,
They was on us now, was on our backs,
She said, "Raleigh's looking pretty far now Jack."
Now Baton Rouge is lonely and it's hot in the sun,
And I show my little Suzie off to everyone,
She's dead in my wallet, she's dead in her shoes,
And everybody knows her name from the evening news.
I said, "Hey man,
It's alright."

Run Like Hell
03:14
|
|||
|
Where's my sweet Jesus now?
Must be gone, running like hell,
You know I really thought he might stick around,
Looks like he let us all drown in this well,
Like any other man I've been wondering how,
Anyone could find my sweet Jesus now.
I had a brother,
Until I was ten,
They came and they found me,
Said, "Where have you been?",
Locked in my room I cried, I cried,
Oh God, will you love me again?
Where's my sweet Jesus now?
Must be gone, running like hell,
You know I really thought he might stick around,
Looks like he let us all drown in this well,
Like any other man I've been wondering how,
Anyone could find my sweet Jesus now.

Alibi
02:26
|
|||
|
Take me some place far away,
Say goodbye to my friends,
I hope that any lies I've said,
Were just in self defense.
What does it mean to die,
If I can't quite figure out livin'?
I sure could use a good alibi,
What say we go for a ride?
Let's take a trip down to Mexico,
And get one last look at the sun,
Won't you take a good look in that rear view mirror,
We ain't goin' back for no one.
What does it mean to die,
If I can't quite figure out livin'?
I sure could use a good alibi,
What say we go for a ride?

Bipolar mother nature changing up for you,
Cut cold in a burning stove you gotta make up your mind,
Bipolar mother nature changing up for you,
Cut cold in a burning stove you gotta make up your mind,
I've been breaking up the steps to my door thinking I'm the only one,
You remind of the sun,
I've been thinking about all the ways it takes to understand your heart,
I guess I'm not very smart.
Bipolar mother nature changing up for you,
In the rain it'd be all the same you gotta make up your mind,
Bipolar mother nature changing up for you,
In the rain it'd be all the same you gotta make up your mind.
Colours change, though it might be strange,
You gotta be alright,
Time is good when it's understood,
You gotta make up your mind,
Oh, you gotta make up your mind.
Bipolar mother nature changing up for you,
It might be sad but it ain't that bad, you gotta make up your mind,
Bipolar mother nature changing up for you,
It might be sad but it ain't that bad, you gotta make up your mind.

Come Back Home
05:50
|
|||
|
Hey mama do you think that's fine,
Pour me a forty dollar glass of that hundred dollar wine,
If you can't you know I can find another way,
We'll head back on a country road,
The water's warm, the air is cold,
That's all I can do, you know I'm pretty set in my ways.
Come back home
(Baby come home)
Come back home
(Baby come home)
Come back home to me
The road was glass, the moon it shone,
Her eyes were blue and her hair was long,
As long as the water is wide,
I said, "Hey babe I think it's time that we go,
To a place where we can make 'em play the music that's slow,"
Thinking everything will be alright.
Come back home
(Baby come home)
Come back home
(Baby come home)
Come back home to me

Into the Long Night

Trippy,Fuzzy this album has it all, keep the spirit!

This is the bands second release six years after Their Funk City Revolutions album. Not much to choose among the recordings both solid releases. Great chill blues to enjoy a cold brew or two while listening to some fantastic blues.

As these psychedelic folk rockers from Glasgow apparently like to play with dark-light contrasts, Lucid Sins is indeed a well chosen band name. My normal go-to address for this kind of music with a pleasant retro-flair, is Chris Wade's Dodson & Fogg but by good luck I stumbled over these guys, who deliver comparable goods, though a good deal harder hitting and with infectious grooves. The drivin Hidden in the Dark is another favourite.

15 years into their career, the Toronto indie rockers sound sharp and ebullient as ever.
go to album
The Toronto jangle-pop outfit keep things short, simple — and super catchy – on their buoyant full-length debut.
go to album
This Michigan-based trio trip, swirl, and echo their way through 11 songs of psychedelic, surf-tinged, garage rock.

Nothing stands out immediately, but as the music plays on you are drawn into the sublime genius of the songwriting, keyboards, and vocals. 70s rock at face value, there is a groove to this music that feels modern and only gets better on repeated spins.
