lyrics
He’s just a kid of suburban sprawl
Who can’t save face in the eyes of God
And she’s just a girl with love in her heart
Who can’t seem to find the right place to start
The right place to start
Their eyes meet across the banquet hall
As the snow outside begins to fall
Winter’s chill is lost on them
As the fire of love has their hearts on mend
It has their hearts on mend
And she’ll take his hand
and they’ll dance through the evening
And he’ll come to understand
that she’s there to stop the bleeding
Because ‘til now, he’s had no plan
To defend against the feelings
But with her, and her steady hands
He has a chance, to stop the grieving
Stop the grieving, stop the grieving
Who can’t save face in the eyes of God
And she’s just a girl with love in her heart
Who can’t seem to find the right place to start
The right place to start
Their eyes meet across the banquet hall
As the snow outside begins to fall
Winter’s chill is lost on them
As the fire of love has their hearts on mend
It has their hearts on mend
And she’ll take his hand
and they’ll dance through the evening
And he’ll come to understand
that she’s there to stop the bleeding
Because ‘til now, he’s had no plan
To defend against the feelings
But with her, and her steady hands
He has a chance, to stop the grieving
Stop the grieving, stop the grieving

We have played with these guys more than anyone else... and for good reason! Shoegazy, pop infused jams with soft, smooth and meaningful lyrics over top. So what are you waiting for, check it out!

My brothers band. Post-punk at its finest. I don't even listen to this genre but this record is just solid. They tour across North America too so they are most likely in your town soon

I can't fully put my finger on it, but there's something in this album that makes me think of the Cramps on one hand and the Gorillaz on the other, not sure what though. I do love the direction this is headed in. A few of these are a bop like nobody seems to understand. I feel like it's relevant for how a lot of people feel these days

An easy-to-love combination of emo and jangle pop, the first full album from Spirit Night in eight years feels bathed in a golden glow.

Spring Rites
by Tannhauser OrchestraBright, gorgeous, bashing songs from these Belgian shoegazers that never lose track of melody amidst the waves of distortion.

Flower Of Life [LP]
by Taleen Kali"Flower Of Life" yanks riot grrrl south through the unmistakable garage psych sound indispensable to the last 20-odd years of rock music out of Los Angeles.
