  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Our lyrics go through a lot of revisions. Sean mails Andrew the originals, then Owen jumps in and the whole gang edits them again and again until the final lyrics are set in stone. But a lot of good parts never make it into the final songs! And the lyric sheets get heavily marked up too. Now, you can have the original lyrics for each song, and get a look at all of the changes they go through. Each one has been painstakingly hand-edited to match the original lyric sheets. Individually hand-numbered edition of 50. Fun stuff!

    Includes unlimited streaming of All Will Be Well & All Will Be Well, etc., etc. via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

I read the news today, oh shit,
About the oceans’ rising centigrade,
Ten thousand wartime photographs,
Displays of weaponry shot me awake.

Maybe the sun rose in the West today,
The wrong window trapped the morning rays.

I sat up in a mosquito’s belly,
And watched my arms swim in the swelling room,
Toward my phone to silence the alarm
Ringing across the rafters of my brain.
The night drained away by the dawn,
The edges in my mind shaved my face into a yawn.
I watched the limp beginning of a winter’s day.
It’s hard to picture the spring:
April’s jackets, May’s grasses, June’s weddings.
The way things are going, it could go missing.

I read the news today, oh shit.

All the neighbours know it’s too cold to go outside, the backwards sky looks uninviting as I walk onto the ice. The houses crowding Pape seem like tiny estates for Antoinettish yuppies, eating the entire cake. The street looks abandoned when I turn the dog south toward the glacial slide of a towering lakeside Versailles, walled in on all sides by a slowly gentrifying canyon, with a thousand fucking plaguemasked revelers overlooking the side and deciding where the next up-and-coming neighbourhood will be. But it’s never that interesting. Just developers grabbing cheques where they can, from people grabbing property where they can, with banks handing out poorer people’s money where they can. Turning their mortgages into wounds that never heal, growing redder, with the disappearing hope of leaving in the black. Before the plague doctors come back. I listened to the news when I got back home. I started to feel real horrorshow.
