as you were
thickener and putty
do your peers travel often
accomplish great things
while you wither
two, three, four
what did
what did
M.E.S. say about repetition
pilloried, duck-footed
and now he’s blushing
inhibited
two, three, four

ma’am, i have prepared
today’s eulogies for you
people time forgot about
died out of the blue
applicable memoirs
have been summarized below
less than
forward slash
number three
sent from my iphone
just gutted
could i get a box for this
oh, you don’t say
win the hearts and minds
of fickle customers
with folklore
a photo booth
and, of course, hors d’oeuvres
tonight, we toast those reprobate
who could not be here with us
hey, don’t look at me, pal
talk to my namesake
so be it
“a piece of gum”
she whispers
oh, you don’t say

i lost you awhile ago
but still i don't know why
i can't say your name
without a crow flying by
gotta watch my back
now that you turned me around
got me walking backwards
into my hometown
throw me a rope
on the rolling tide
what did you want me to be
you said it's him or me
the way you made it
that's the way it will be
we were seven years on the burma shore
with gatling guns and paint
working the lowlands door-to-door
like a latter day saint
then you turn me out
at the top of the stairs
you took all the glory
that you just couldn't share
i've never been so disabused
never been so mad
i've never been served anything
that tasted so bad
you might need a friend
any day now, any day
oh my brother, be careful
you are drifting away
throw me a rope
on the rolling tide
what did you want me to be
you said it's him or me
the way you made it
that's the way it will be
the way you made it
that's the way it will be

sewingneedle Chicago, Illinois
"hard rock that really rocks."
LIVE in 2024
4/26 Marquette, MI

4/28 Rockford, IL
sewingneedle recommends:
winding rock & roll played with a smirk by PRF sweethearts. great interplay between instruments, each leaving room for the other to let their hair down occasionally. see 'em at quencher's 12/10/16.

bleak, jittery post punk from montreal. fitting that the album cover artwork recall's wire's 154; this band knows party like it's 1979.

A Self-Help Tragedy
by Doomsday Student
enter the haunted house of doomsday student. arab on radar's spirit persists throughout this atonal, shrieking, and rambling anti-rock affair - now with tamer lyrics and a couple effects pedals.

Blinded By Oblivion
