Blind For A Reason

Lyrics:
A hundred thousand pin pricks
But no one knows that you’ve been bleeding
Every day the sun goes down
You begin to dream you’re leaving
You don’t care, you don’t mind
Love is blind for a reason
You just keep believing
Love is blind for a reason
There is a path that you can take
It is dark with crying children
You’re afraid of your mistakes
Is it one to be leaving?
You don’t care, you don’t mind
Love is blind for a reason
You just keep believing
Love is blind for a reason
All your time ripped away
It’s a trap to make you stay
But it’s a lie…run away!
Love is blind for a reason
Love is blind for a reason

Lyrics:
These two will get me through
The hours in these rooms
Stretching, scarring, worried in the dark
Laughing, loving, running through the park
It’s getting colder soon
Staring at the moon
I’m sure there’s nothing there
In sickness and in health
In quiet and in stealth
Reaching, freeing, flying in our heads
Barely bearing witness to the dead
I hope it warms up soon
It’s time to leave our rooms
Something’s still out there
Don’t fall into confusion,
Don’t fall into confusion
I’ll take you to the carousel, we’ll spin until it’s dark
Satellites they show the masses gathered in the park
It’s getting colder soon
But it’s warmer in this room
Everything is here
Don’t fall into confusion
Don’t fall into confusion

Silent Subversion

Lyrics:
Skimming the surface, losing the purpose everywhere
Time is a circus, fiery rings tossed into the air
Mirrors are breaking, who is waking up to see
the shattered dreams in the weeds?
Calling all stations, calling all nations, the signals are free
Voices are drowning, loud and misfiring, scream to screen
Images melting, who is lining up to see
the scattered dreams in the sea?
Person to person, version to version, silence is free
Silent subversion, quiet immersion speaks to me
Silent subversion, silent subversion

Lyrics:
Add up the numbers, the days and the hours
playing together and playing with fire
We know that family is what keeps us tethered
But in the notes of music we always remember
the chords in our mind.
We all wish for patience and long lazy summers
grace under pressure and comforting slumbers
But the sun is setting in blacks, blues, and pallor
Like all our bruises, we hope we get better
to hear the chords in time.
Picture a river with our heads washing under
overhung with branches like hands reaching downwards.
We pull ourselves to safety to a warm campfire
with guitars laying ready to receive our fingers
for the chords in our mind.

Celebrate This

Lyrics:
We will celebrate this, yeah, we will celebrate this
But we are, we are dying inside, we are dying inside
We will consecrate this, yeah, we will consecrate this
But we are, we are hiding in sight, we are hiding in sight
We will elevate this, yeah, we will elevate this
But we are, we are falling aside, we are falling aside
We will emulate this, yeah, we will emulate this
But we are, we are lying inside, we are lying inside.
We won’t celebrate this, no, we won’t celebrate this
‘cause we are, we are coming alive, we are coming alive
You can never make us, no, you can never make us
‘cause we are, we are starting to fight, we are starting to fight
We won’t emulate this, yeah, we won’t elevate this
‘cause we are, we are opening wide, we are opening wide
We won’t celebrate this, no, we won’t celebrate this
‘cause we are, we are coming alive, we are coming alive.

Green Palm Radiation Guelph, Ontario
Green Palm Radiation is the psych-pop musings of Jay Newberry, of Guelph, Ontario, Canada. Buzzing riffs, jangly strums,
drones and hums, and hook-laden sing-a-longs.
"People know I’m a sucker for beautiful noise pop. And this spacey, dreamy, one-man band affixes childlike, kid-friendly, custard-sweet melodies to distorto-guitar swirls". - Jack Rabid, The Big Takeover

Thunder Follows The Light

Every record is better and better - gorgeous modern folk of the highest calibre. In love with this band.

Light-Heat continues where Mazarin (whose LP A Tall Tale Storyline might be my greatest single influence) left off. Fuzzy and glorious indie rock.

Slumberland is that friend who you don't see every week, and often forget to call, but when you see them, they buy you a shot of Fernet at the bar & tell you a funny story you forgot about, reminding you why you liked that person in the first place. Failed Flowers is that shot of Fernet, and that story rolled up into a night out at the bar. Punkish jangle pop with clever songwriting and a penchant for recalling every band I've ever heard on Slumberland, yet none that I can finger specifically.

Deliriously delightful and uplifting shoegaze sounds. Lovely textures and layers. Never lets up from the word "go".

JEUNE/AMETHYST
by SILVER DAPPLE
Sparkly dream pop from Quebec with a fuzzy low end, bright guitars, sugary melodies, and two female vocalists brings to mind an early Lush.
