rarr rarrrr MS MR 'Hurricane'
this is another older song that has only recently made its way into my sound space...it has this decidedly epic 90's feel to it.
art rock, dream pop, alternative dark wave MS MR from New York, New York
Everything Everything! KEMOSABE
an older ditty that has found its way into my daily playlist...
Everything Everything 'Kemosabe'
British alternative pop-ish band that came through Austin over SXSW 2013
pretty intreresting lyrics:
Four walls and a cauldron of Kalashnikoving, and our home is a trigger that
I'm always pulling
At the border, at the, at the border I'm at the border, at the, at the
Border
The short spears and the weak eternal monologuing, and our war is the
Crucible of all your longing
At the border, at the, at the border I'm at the border, at the, at the
Border
I was there when the clamour got real I was there when your brow smashed
The wall
It's like a riot with only two perps, the more I'm here I'm making it worse
But does it feel like you're already dead? (YES! ) and do you feel like your
Brain stopped delivering?
Yeah break my finger shoot out my black eyes, What does it matter if
Everyone dies?
Hey Kemosabe I'm alone! Ayah! I am a! I am alone!
Hey Kemosabe I'm alone! Ayah! I am a! I am alone! Hi-O Silver away
So fast hence take an arrow from your quiver or we’re, past-tense - what’s
A trilobite to anyone?
I’m outta my depth, outta, outta my depth I'm outta my depth, outta, outta
My depth
My head reels and I’m crawling down the corridor, I can't see, but I’m
Heaving like a holocaust
I'm reaching my phone, reaching, reaching my phone I'm reaching my phone,
Reaching, reaching my phone
You wasn’t there when I orphaned that boy, (NO! ) Your body was, and the
White of your rollin’ eye I saw some terrible things on that night, I done
A lot of bad things with my life
I put my fingers in thee, And I breeze past security!
Nobody checking on all of my deeds, I need a checker for all of my deeds…
Hey Kemosabe I'm alone! Ayah! I am a! I am alone!
Hey Kemosabe I'm alone! Ayah! I am a! I am alone!
And we be trapped in the amber, last joy…
And I’m looking at a holy ghost. But there’s no silver bullet for a memory
I, field dress every moment but you’re telling me that Tonto say;
I’ve lost my way!
Hey Kemosabe I'm alone! Ayah! I am a! I am alone!
Hey Kemosabe I'm alone! Ayah! I am a! I am alone! Hi-O silver away!
Mmm, and I’m lost and I’m drained… 'nuff genuflecting in a penitent way!
Hey Kemosabe I'm alone! Ayah! I am a! I am alone! So yippee-kayay!
Hey Kemosabe I'm alone! Ayah! I am a! I am alone! Hi-O silver away!

whoa whoa whoa. this shit kicks.
totally tubular man. i feel like they just time-warped to 80's club scene with today's knowledge of electonica.

all-star line up
ISLAND FOX 'things I've seen'
Island Fox, from Cambridgeshire, is a collaborative electronic project between producer Benjamin Abbott (Stealth Elf) & singer/songwriter Jessica Bartlet (Jessa)
TOP JAMS from SXSW 2013, part four of infinity
she is also in the middle of a full U.S. tour if you can catch a show
I adore her voice and style but it appears after further research that the bulk, if not all, of her songs are based on a failed relationship. boring. beautifully boring. here's to hoping I'm wrong or that her next album will be different, too much talent to waste on heartache.
