When we crossed the plains we burned them behind us
termites of the last frontier
the long hangover of the Roman soldier
vultures congregate on the lawn
Don't destroy the world while I'm sleeping
I watch your jets go by
they take apart my sky
one piece at a time
Kiss the sand on the beach
while the ship sinks in the sea
Take your time
Do what you have to survive
and then watch the rising tide
from the highest ground you can find
Having failed to save the world
we saved ourselves, we saved ourselves

Watching the clock's red light
up half the night
we all become the thing we loathe
It's okay
It's called growing up
settling down
settling in
bought out to buy in
bought out to buy in
In our crooked wet homes
Machines fail us
When there's no sand left in the hourglass
they betray us
they betray us
The creases collide
in your awkward trousers
the time is right
to mortgage the night
and make it ours

Fuck Marry Kill
by Daddy Issues
supported by 6 fans who also own “ACID COP”
Feminist garage post punk. With titles like "Glue Sniffer", "Pissed" and title track, these are girls behaving badly. But there's also a 60s girl band sensitivity that ameliorates any potential offense with a harmony and melodic sense not normally found in this genre. And there's humour too, great album.

Best thing I’ve heard in a long time. Sounds like Dag Nasty crossed with HDQ. Fucking killer!

Jam-meets-jazztronica band Papadosio returns with an epic new album bursting with lengthy, exploratory passages.
