lyrics
when thoughts on the future
expose narrow corridors
when faced with recognition
that you gave it all, and it was not enough
some days a modicum
can weigh on you a lot
and when basic conversation
escapes you and makes you feel small
some days, no one asks you;
other days you don't want to talk
so just stretch your hands out
we can help you stand tall--
something hidden has come undone:
a bout may feel endless
but all things they move on
childhood friends are disappearing
my brother has a son
i watch swallows through a skylight
as my father chops kindling in the yard
sometimes it's alright to give up
sometimes it's alright to give up
As usual, Kirby manipulates various interwar records to fit a cavalcade of emotional states: blissful (B1, E8), tragic (D2, D5), frantic (E1, E6), and just plain horrifying (F3, G1, H1, K1). gjoe52
The great underlying instrumentation paired with Florence's droll stream of consciousness lyrics make this album stand out. It feels so personal and confessional. Favorite tracks are Strong Feelings and Leafy. I've heard Scratchard Lanyard on alt radio and love that one as well. tofupotpie

I don't hear a lot of this kind of music, gives me ,loose Sonic Youth vibes. Everything about it is cool, like too cool for school cool. I want to skip class and spray paint an alley with these people. Kyle Zarnoch
