lyrics
we gather by the roadside
staring at all the strangers
what shall we give them
and what will they try to take?
is this the story?
an evolution?
is it symmetric
or complementary?
we read each other
but our histories
don't read the same
we're often holding back the
few plans we try to make
filling our dreams with
contributions we could have made
could we now counter
this situation
choices we've made?
we read each other
but our histories
don't read the same

This is a gorgeous album. Totally now, while reminiscent of the best pop from decades past. Beautiful echoes of St Etienne, Broadcast, Cocteau, Dubstar. Within a pop realm it holds a timeless quality, with its dreamy lo-fi pallet of sounds, infectious bass and drums, and compelling vocals. Each piece creates a world to inhabit. For me these worlds are tinged with a sort of nostalgia for a time that never really was, though they are not limited to this. I return to this album again and again. ks6bb

The Austin band’s fourth album feels like the bleeding edge of a breakthrough, a country-rock dream machine somewhere between a jolt and a drift. Bandcamp Album of the Day Nov 5, 2019
