lyrics
So what went down, what went down?
That has you sinking under the surface now
Don’t you know, don’t you know?
We’re all just dying out in an afterglow, an afterglow
We dive into a lake so placid
We watch our bodies fade to ashes
Just put us down, put us down
You’ve tossed these bodies all around
Don’t you see, don’t you see?
There’s just too much weight
We’re falling to our knees, to our knees
We dive into a lake so placid
We watch our bodies fade to ashes
A gentle kiss from lovers we hold
Contain the balance, they’re as precious as gold
We bury our hearts
We strain our hearts
But why do we?
We break our hearts
We strain our hearts
But why do we?
We dive into a lake so placid
We watch our bodies fade to ashes
We dive into a lake so placid
We watch our bodies fade to ashes
That has you sinking under the surface now
Don’t you know, don’t you know?
We’re all just dying out in an afterglow, an afterglow
We dive into a lake so placid
We watch our bodies fade to ashes
Just put us down, put us down
You’ve tossed these bodies all around
Don’t you see, don’t you see?
There’s just too much weight
We’re falling to our knees, to our knees
We dive into a lake so placid
We watch our bodies fade to ashes
A gentle kiss from lovers we hold
Contain the balance, they’re as precious as gold
We bury our hearts
We strain our hearts
But why do we?
We break our hearts
We strain our hearts
But why do we?
We dive into a lake so placid
We watch our bodies fade to ashes
We dive into a lake so placid
We watch our bodies fade to ashes

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.
