Come On Let's Go

before I fall

sunshine (1)

cut from thorns on the head 
but for no ones pain
coming back from the dead
but it was in vain
they said be who you want
so i went for god
never made it to a throne but fell just as hard
cut me up
make me cry
I'm just a transient carcass
meek and mild 
but a child 
someone who could never be
sacrifice 
so what
starve yourself 
fade away
crucify 
so what
please yourself
fade away
revelate 
no one
love yourself
rot away
trepinate
no one cares
got the stigmata hands but there are no chains
lucifer with a leash
pride patience and pain
i can breathe i can breathe but at what cost
as soon as i close my eyes religion is lost 
cut me up
make me cry
I'm just a transient carcass
meek and mild 
but a child 
someone who could never be
sacrifice 
so what
starve yourself 
fade away
crucify 
so what
please yourself
fade away
revelate 
no one
love yourself
rot away
trepinate
no one cares

Nearing a decade old and with a discography reaching deep into double figures across several different labels (Mexican Summer, Burger, Plastic Response Records) David Loca’s work under the Part Time moniker really shouldn’t require any introduction. Nonetheless, the release of what is officially his sixth album, fittingly titled Spell #6, does signal something of a re-birth and provides a compelling entry point for anyone new to Loca’s prolific output.

Whereas previous albums were notable for a charming lo-fi production, Spell #6 takes Part Time uptown. "I describe this album as 'my studio album', because it was entirely re-recorded at my drummer Walter Byer's studio, unlike most of my past releases being bedroom experimental pop recordings." Loca produced the record himself, impressively appropriating a classic 80s pop sound that recalls some of the more grand productions of that era - think Stephen Street’s expressive production on ‘Last Night I Dreamt Somebody Loved Me’, Crowded House and The Church’s widescreen interpolation of Paisley Underground jangle, and there's even traces Gerard McMann’s grandiose ‘Cry Little Sister’. In that sense, the record stands as an outlier in Loca’s catalogue, and in doing so sheds the sometimes limiting trappings of bedroom recording

Though it is Loca’s project, Spell #6 sees him joined by a consistent supporting cast of fellow writers and performers who add a poise and deftness to his vision, most notably Ariel Pink, who makes a guest appearance on lead single, ‘I Can Treat You Better’.

A lead single for its obvious earworm qualities, it also functions as an ideal snapshot of the lyrical themes that run through the entire record: romantic gestures and unrequited love, bad decisions on hot nights/hot decisions on bad nights, and unpinning it all, LA. For this is evidently a West Coast record, like a 2018 take on To Live and Die in LA: expansive, grand, and not a little crazy (in love) from the heat.
