It’s cold out here
This time of year
I’m tired too
Let’s lay around this hidden noon
Go look around
Bring me what you’ve found
Burrs hooked on you
Make sure you pick them off your shoes
I want to feel your pain, they say
Refuse to see me harden
But I will lead them through the gray
Into the foxtail garden
This iron gate
Holds in my hate
This gravel path
Is too well-worn; you do the math
These barren rows
Reap what they sow
Seasons cycle through
Tell me what autumn means to you
You have to walk amid the waste
To be a witness, too
There is no way to see this place
Except for walking through
I’m tired, dear
I’ll lay right here
This fishhook bed
These velvet blankets are so red

Smoothing out his wonky instrumental style, these beefy beats are tastefully paired with twisted jazz n'soul samples. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 9, 2014
The experimental rock band's new record is as melodic and inventive as ever, but now with an even more honed sense of play. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 27, 2024
