"true.deep.sleeper"
you run and you stay
you turn in shame 

You burn my heart away
your thoughts are all the same
true sleep will fall away
as you run into my dream

you turn to pray
you kneel... fall away

you burn my tears away
my want is all your game
my heart will hide the shame
as I fall into your dream

you burn my heart away
you turn my thoughts to shame
true pain will fall away 
as you run into my dream

Lyrics

I don’t need you telling me its over
When all I do is try to hold you closer
To my heart, all lies die
Truth in my head, where fiction is dead

It’s not a feeling of Pain just a feeling of change

I don’t need you anyway, this lemon heart will numb the pain.

I don’t need you offering nothing
When all I can do is promise to be something
All my lies, All my distractions
It’s all in my mind, and it’s turning you away.

It’s not a feeling of Pain just a feeling of change

I don’t need you anyway, this lemon heart will numb the pain.

I don’t need you calling me over. 
When it’s all I can do to try and be sober.
Calling me nothing. Sweet and Sour.
Calling me a liar. Calling you a liar.
Calling me a lemon. Calling you a liar.
But I just can’t walk away!

Lyrics: 

dive into 
a child glass heart 
a broken vow 
is what made that sound 
cutting thru to a place of truth 
what the blind may want is not what’s good for you. 
dive into 
my child glass heart 
fields of silence 
become the start 
of a open pact 
between sight and sound 
two worlds collide of lies and frowns 
watch these eyes brine in time 
i’d be sure to count tears in your sleep 
a memory trace of a child’s life in repeat 
glass will break and pain will stain 
this new life has no chance to remain 
child glass heart 
broken now 
but forever soft

Etiolated

Brooklyn's Dead Leaf Echo is a music/art collective that released their debut LP Thought and Language in 2013. That premier album was strongly influenced by many 4AD acts, brought into sharp focus by the mixing of This Mortal Coil’s John Fryer (Lush, NIN, Depeche Mode) and featuring artwork by 4ADs legendary designer, V23's Vaughan Oliver (Pixies, Bauhaus), which further enhanced their strong aesthetic connections to that label. The band maintains a distinctive ethos--embracing their idols, while still forging their own sound.

Their second LP, Beyond Desire, coming October 13th via Papercup Music finds them working with legendary My Bloody Valentine engineer Guy Fixsen (MBV, WIRE) and Jorge Elbreht (Ariel Pink, No Joy, Frankie Rose, Violens, Lansing-Drieden) with artwork from Timothy O’Donnell (another 4AD design alumni) at Mexican Summer's Gary's Electric studio in Greenpoint. 

The new record finds them exploring something much more than bands within their sphere typically strive for - it's introspection leavened with human connectedness and higher arching themes of maturation and growth that transcend the basic needs of lust and want. This record comes far closer to approximating their live show, with a scorching sound that is often volatile, rife with damaged guitar deconstructions and gleaming figures, yet maintains their eminently melodic sensibilities. Beyond Desire, shifts from shimmering to scorching at the drop of a hat held together by rock solid songwriting. By moving between both ends of the spectrum, the ten tracks on Beyond Desire function both as blissed-out, resplendent expository narratives, and also as pure, white-noise nihilism. 

Both their live performances and album, replete with gorgeous packaging and artwork, are crucial entry points to understanding the band. 

Their upcoming tour will take them across the country from New Orleans to California playing in old and new cities alike over the course of three months. DLE has done multiple national tours over the past three years resulting in over 200 shows and taking them to SXSW, CMJ, NXNE, Northside Festival and everywhere in between. Previous tours and SXSW bills included Swervedriver, A Place to Bury Strangers, The Ocean Blue, The Warlocks, Modern English, The Wedding Present & Trail Of the Dead. They're also veterans of the Desert Stars festival, sharing a bill with the Lemonheads and opening for Lou Barlow in the Joshua Tree desert in 2016. They've toured the East with Slumberland bands Weekend and Lorelei, and on the West Coast with Beach Fossils and the Telescopes at The Echo. They played a festival in 2011 with the Psychedelic Furs as well as sold out shows in 2010 opening for the then recently reunited Chapterhouse and Ulrich Schnauss. 

They’ve constantly topped the CMJ Top 20 indie charts, have played twice live on the venerable KEXP's John in the Morning, and were recently featured as song of the day, while simultaniously on regular rotation on KEXP, and have also been featured on Nic Harcourt's KCSN show Morning Becomes Electric.
