Cant Have More Fun

Ariel Pink sets a serene but complicated scene for the next chapter in his curious career with “Another Weekend,” the first solo material heard since the prog-pop opus pom pom. Contrary to the lyrics of “Another Weekend” (and fortunately for both fanatics and the newly initiated), Pink is neither too shy or humble to have brought his singular style of pop music beyond the bedroom for the befuddled masses over the past two decades, but returned to the formative, familiar setting to craft what will surely live as another shimmering moment in an unrivaled canon.  Encapsulating the lingering euphoria of a regrettable weekend over the edge, “Another Weekend” speaks in morose volumes while whispering sweetly, the dichotomy of Pink’s pathos once again on display. Backed with “Ode To The Goat (Thank You)”, “Another Weekend” will be shared as a 7” single and through conventional music serving mechanisms on Wednesday, June 7.

'December' is the first single from Yumi Zouma's sophomore album, Willowbank, out October 6, 2017 on Cascine.

Limited edition Willowbank 12"s are pressed on baby blue vinyl and include sheet music for album highlight 'Carnation’ printed on premium cotton paper. Select LPs will also include hidden entry tickets to invite-only release parties in New York City and Los Angeles, featuring live and DJ sets from the band. Pre-orders will ship the week of September 18.

Just over a year after releasing their lauded debut LP, Yoncalla, Yumi Zouma return with Willowbank, the band’s sophomore album. For the making of Willowbank, Yumi Zouma's members — Charlie Ryder, Josh Burgess, Christie Simpson and Sam Perry — settled on a plan to reunite for the New Zealand summer. To complete what would become their first significant work written and recorded entirely in their home country, they rented a studio in Christchurch’s semi-demolished CBD, on one of the few remaining blocks that still characterizes the city from before it was destroyed by a series of earthquakes. “It was as though there was a brief pause in all of our lives and we finally felt like a band from New Zealand,” said Burgess. “We were on home turf and creating from a place that felt fundamentally natural.” When you know it’s there, the feeling of rootedness is undeniable on Willowbank. Being connected to their origins on the bottom of the earth allowed the band’s members to craft another essential chapter in the Yumi Zouma storybook.

Way back, when Elsa was a little girl 
She saw a deer in her yard 
And she went over to take a peek 
She waved at it through the glass 
A gunshot cracked 
And steaming blood fanned out around its kicking feet 
Dead eyes staring 
Dead eyes staring 
Now she’s all grown, big-boned, and sweet 
Dancing to her records late at night 
When there’s no one around who might 
Hear her as she tries to sing 
Fly strips along the walls 
She twirls through the halls of buzzing wings 

She puts on the clothes she likes to sleep in 
Leaves the hall lights on bright 
And falls nervous into dreaming 
Cause she knows what she’ll find 
Staring back all blank and dead 
She takes a hit and slides out of bed 

You said Jack’s handsome and he’s dumb 
Drinks at your father’s bar with all the scum 
Till his flushed face goes slack 
He’s new in town. Came one night when it was raining 
Bag full of blank notebooks on his back 
And he’s always complaining 
Yeah he knows he’s a poet just uninspired 
Says it’s his muse who is a fucking hack 
Says the bitch must be sleeping on the job 
Like some lazy god-slob 
Don’t give a shit about her little Jack 

He whistles for another round 

Elsa’s walking down the street 
Jack sees her through the glass and winks 
Elsa smiles back from the crosswalk 

Brakes squealing and screeching 
Jack runs to the Cadillac 
Sees Elsa gurgling beneath it 
Her eyes stare dead-blank 
Rolling round in her twitching head 
Like a dumb animal he thinks 
And the beauty overwhelms him 
He writes and writes and writes 
He writes and writes and writes 
He writes a title on the page 
“Doe-Eyed Girl” it says

Night’s changing 
Spiders seem to levitate in headlight 
While deer hide dumb in the bushes 
And three snakes hang from the branches of a small tree 
In front of her house where he’s climbing out of her room 

José looks back through the window 
She’s tangled up in the sheets and she’s smiling sweet 
Talking softly in her sleep 
He hops down to the driveway 
Stumbles to his car parked down the street 
And he turns the key 

The church looms on the horizon 
Like the dried up husk of some ancient bug 
Legs scratching at the rising sun 
Inside he gathers his things 
‘Round the scattered bodies of his passed out friends 
In a drunken spin 

Jimmy yawns and says, “Hey what’s goin on?” 
“Shadows just seem darker these days.” Says José 
“Anyway, I’m gonna catch a train.” 

José waits by the tracks 
Sunrise puts a squint in his eyes 
And it seems like there’s 
So many little creatures scurrying around that he can’t see 
The train comes and he starts running 
He jumps for it and he slips 

She wakes up and she sees his gone 
Just like she expected 
But she hoped she’d be wrong 
Thought this morning 
She could try it on top 
“Never get old where you were young.” 
He said while she was nodding off 
He’s kind of strange she thinks 
Yeah but so is love 
The kids in the church start to stir, 
As light pours in through the holes in the walls, 
Wondering if José is gone 
“No one ever really leaves.” 
Jimmy says through a cloud of smoke 
“Where would he go anyway?” 
The sun is up and the birds are pecking 
Pecking at something lying in the dirt
