lyrics by: juppy & cess

Please, don't live inside this box with me.
I know you know that you fly better when you're free.
And labels, they're just cages, and our lovin' is the key.
Please, don't live inside this box with me. 

Your Sun was meant to shine on more than me.
Rules don't need to matter when they tell you you can't be,
Anything and everything you dream of, you can see
Looking in the mirror, staring back at you and me. 

Oh, my love. I never meant to put you in this place.
My love was never meant to be your chains.
How these walls in my bedroom make it hard for you to breathe.
This claustrophobic loving isn't what you need. 

So please don't live inside this box with me.
Darling, you know better than to fool around with a boy like me.
I'm just a lonely lover aching for some company.
You don't want to know what it's like to be
Living everyday inside this box with me. 

Go, my love. Go and see the world through those sparkling diamond eyes.
Go, my love. Go and spread your wings as you soar across those diamond skies 
Darling I'll go with you, you just gotta give me time.
I just need to figure out how I'm getting out 
of this little box of mine.

How It Ends

Shelflife is thrilled to announce Airiel's second full-length LP, Molten Young Lovers, coming out on double LP and digital formats on Oct 13, 2017. This album is the much-anticipated follow-up to 2012's Kid Games EP. 

"Cloudburst," the record's first single (which was released this past March), provides a clear insight into the record's magic. The huge chorus is carried by a vocal melody that stands out as the largest part, only complimented by the waves of cascading guitar. In fact, 'large' might be the best possible descriptor for Molten Young Lovers as a whole. The tracks on this LP have a larger-than-life quality, partly due to the crisp production. Kiss' drums are hard-hitting and clear, the guitars are enveloping and lush, and Blanton's basslines flesh out the walls of sound created by the rest of the band. Molten Young Lovers is an album that feels instantly seamless, but that doesn't prevent Airiel from covering a wide range of dynamic ground. Tracks like the opener, "This Is Permanent," and the final track, "The Painkillers," are uptempo songs carried by the unwavering rhythm section, while much of what's in-between--such as "Your Lips, My Mouth"--feel more reflective, without sacrificing any intensity. 

In a 2011 interview, Wrenn mentioned that to others, he often describes his music as, "It's really loud, it's pretty and you can dance to it." At first, this might sound like a description that could fit any number of bands. However, upon diving into Airiel's new album, you'll find it to be both an apt description and an inarguable truth. Molten Young Lovers is a record too loud, too big, and too beautiful to be ignored.
