cool music and things: February 2022

FEBRUARY 2022 PART 4

On March the third

KO:MI releases new song  “Flooding, No Rain”
First new KO:MI material since last year’s We Said We Didn’t Know but We Knew album.
KO:MI releases “Flooding, No Rain” on the 23rd April 2021 via Soliti.
Of the new song Sanna Komi (KO:MI) explains "I originally wrote this song for the Acoustic Guitar Project, in which you're given an acoustic guitar, a recording device and a week to write a song and record it in a single take. The format is really inspiring and I ended up liking this song so much that I wanted to do a studio version of it, still keeping to the minimalistic quality of the original. I wrote it just before the release of my We Said We Didn't Know but We Knew album in the end of last year, and thematically it is a continuation of that album. It is a song about the fragile materiality of life as we know it on Earth and the absurdity of things like owning a piece of a planet. What does that even mean? The consequences: climate change, biodiversity loss, extreme weather, are all happening in front of our eyes."

Boy With Apple - Linger On

Lyrics:

Hand in hand by the burning car I can feel the heat from the flames
Black smoke in the firelight, the autumn breeze comes in waves
What does it all matter, the wheels keeps turning anyway
I could use a break from myself, can someone else drive for a change

Oh you must know now
About all the things I’d keep if I could forget it all
I’m just momentary dust
Holding shape against the wall

I can see a spark in your eyes when you explain the future away
I can smile and be glad but I can’t see so far ahead
I’ve been here before, guess I’ll still be here in the end
Carved into stone but dissolving nonetheless

Oh you must know now
About all the things I’d keep if I could forget it all
I’m just momentary dust
Holding shape against the wall

And I’m not upset
Things can’t be perfect
Is there no secret to it?
I’ll take your word for it

And I’m not upset
Things can’t be perfect
Is there no secret to it?
‘cause I can’t keep this up

Oh you must know now
About all the things I’d keep if I could forget it all
I’m just momentary dust
Holding shape against the wall

Black Smoke, Autumn Breeze

So feel the flat line
Face down in the time it took to fly
And speak a sure sound
Lining all your words with sugared ice

Well you live and you learn with
Every painful twist and  
Wasted turn

There’s no rhyme between the 
Time it takes to fly
And the time it takes to 
Clamber back to life

So feel the flat line
Smooth and steady
Nothing left to climb 
And change as you choose
If there’s something on your mind

After all this time...

Like a fever it hits
With a cold red mist
Bent bitter in the night
Caught up in a lie
Blood-shot
Hung up
On a said so
When you’re better off

No rhyme between the 
Time it takes to fly
And the time it takes to 
Clamber back to life

So feel the flat line
Set fire now the gale has blown behind
And sparks in your eyes
Shining with the tears you’d pushed aside

Oh, you live and you learn
With every painful twist
And wasted turn

Like a fever it hits
With cold red mist
Bent bitter in the night
Caught up in a lie
Blood-shot
Holding onto a said so
When you’re better off

Flatline

Thunder Fever

Softly
