Lyrics:

Kiss me, kiss me
Heart stimulation
While I'm near -
life is you
Love reservation

Hiss please
Hiss in my ears
Scratch me with your hands
The pain release is awful
But you got to take care of me

This pain is new
Lost in confusion
Hands are shaking
I'm not my usual self

Last night didn't know about you
Now I'm frightened
Cuz i cant live without u

Here I'm right here
You've never seen me crying
God strikes with lightning
From the blood-stained sky

In my head in my head
I feel alive I feel alive again
But you don't have to pretend

love reservation

-------------------------------------------------------------
Brooklyn based Rips have quickly built a reputation amongst NYC showgoers, winning them over with their virtuous melodies and sheer ferocity amidst an endless flurry of shows. Their songs may channel late '70s New York City bands like Television and The Feelies, but Rips propels these references into something new. Their self-titled debut, produced by Austin Brown of Parquet Courts, is eleven tracks of buzzing guitar riffs driven by a charged rhythm section, all set under lyrics that are actually worth a damn.

Rips (the record) takes cues from the moonlighting era of rock, while delivering a set of songs distinctly fit for the modern age. Once described as a “hyperreal rock n’ roll group”, the phrase “borne forward ceaselessly into the future" is more what they’re going for here.

So break an old habit. Let your hair down (or up). Rips will take you there.
