some more stuff is on the way, hoping to get my upload schedule back to where it used to be. life has thrown me a shit ton of curveballs but that just means i got more to sing about.
this song is so much more morbid than youd think

Lyrics:
solar flares reverberate
through your soft skin
entwined with mine

aurora of my heartbeart
fleeting souls meant to meet
your name calls to mine
beckoning for more time

hours pass as days
begging you will stay

still air
still heir

Still Air

Another Michael - What Gives?

Lyrics:

Alternate End
Written by Marlon Chaplin

I wanted to call,
But my fear broke in and I stalled,
You,
Contemptuous and confused,
Had aligned your crosshairs to shoot,
Shoot,

Take me down to the range,
String me up when they call out your name,

In sight is what you thought we could be,
Now I'm far too obstructed for you to see me,
Nothing is left but the dregs,
I was unjaded - in over my head,
Dead,

I don't know where to come in,
How to speak,
How to think to begin,

Like you'd already confessed,
You let him watch while you'd undress,
Now what kind of tramp defines themselves by success?

I'd deceived and you'd believed,
Is this machine just a weapon to me?
Damaged,
Now I dare not ask,
Had your diatribe not taken me to task,

Perhaps there's an alternate end,
Some kind of twist,
Some kind of fold or a bend,

Like you'd already confessed,
You'd let him watch while you'd undress,
Now what kind of tramp defines themselves by success?
Oh now, you've gone done it again.

Alternate End

‘Deep Rest’ is the second single from the soon to be released debut record “Moments In Ruin” by Meanjin (Brisbane) band Ancient Channels. ‘Deep Rest’ is a dejected disco track with a post-punk edge. A driving beat, both danceable and ornamental, bound to a steady, directive bass line that steers the song towards a hook-abounding chorus of convergent guitars, warbly synths and sweet vocal harmonies.

The song explores themes of world weariness, a strong juxtaposition to the upbeat energy of the instrumentation.

LST-111 SLEUTH "Gold" Cassette Tape w/ Digital Download

Release date May 29th, 2020

Vancouver indie pop band, Sleuth just released the music video for their track “Sick Days” ahead of their 7 song, sophomore album, Gold (Lost Sound Tapes and Jigsaw Records). The anticipated release date May 29th with pre-orders available now on Lost Sound Tapes’ Bandcamp, promising a solid gold cassette with digital download, and CD pre-orders forthcoming through Jigsaw Records.

The highly topical video features members (Julian Bowers, Jasper Lastoria, Jon Manning and Oliver McTavish-Wisden) making the best of a bad situation filming themselves in isolation amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. They're experiencing both the mundane, frustrating, and occasionally funny aspects of social distancing. If local situations improve, the record release party was set at Red Gate Arts Society May 30th with Flying Fish Cove, Maneater and Primp but instead Sleuth will be organizing a virtual gathering.

Behind Bars

Lyrics:
I’ve wasted my time
Hoping you’d fall for me
So I try and hide
So i try and hide
But i can’t get away
 cause you’re always on my mind
 I get so nervous and never know what to say

 Cause I’m under her spell
I’m under her spell
I can’t help myself
when i’m under her spell 

You’re walking away
but you don’t look back
How am I supposed to feel when I can’t see your face
 You’ve been on my mind
all this time
all this time 

 Cause I’m under her spell
I’m under her spell
I can’t help myself
when i’m under her spell
