The Search

keep my…distance

New single from flypaper. Taken from the debut EP "big nada" out August 25 2023 via PNKSLM Recordings. Listen/buy: https://www.pnkslm.com/big-nada

flypaper is the solo project of London based songwriter Rory Sear, vocalist/frontman of PNKSLM alumni Beachtape, and will be making its debut with the big nada EP on August 25. Six tracks of home-recorded bedroom pop, retaining the immediacy of Beachtape's indie rock but moving into a more intimate direction inspired by classic singer-songwriters like Randy Newman as well as Elliott Smith, big nada is an intriguing introduction, with more music to come from flypaper.

I spent a solid few months working on this, with tons of help with all my new friends I've made in that time. Thanks guys!

Seeking Out Strangers

A song to process the loss of my Grandpa John
------------------------------------------------------------------
Verse 1

Waves Crash
In to mountains
Carving them away

Breaking Down Giants
Oh How The Mighty Fall

Civilizations Crumble
I can’t take the end

Time Conquers Everything
Even the strongest of us all

Chorus

Wisdom Earned
And Lessons Learned
You're on your way home

Memories Burned
In to my Soul
Living on with the stories told

Days have past
Your Laid to rest
We’ve Placed the final stone

I hope you know,
You’ll be missed here at home

Verse 2

Calming Tides
Still the Oceans
Take Away the Pain

Grieving Rains
Fill The Rivers
Carry Me Away

Forests Built
On Ashes
The Old Never Fades

Go on spread your wings
It’s your time to fly away

Dear John

lyrics:

say it softly 
in a sentence you think that i won’t know 
i’m sorry
you’ll fade to be someone i don’t know 
couldn’t put you in a coffin 
it hurts when i think about it often
your flowers and your gemstones
everything that i know 

when you borrow all the sunlight
it erases any doubt you had in your head
that it’s alright 
that it’s okay
i don’t want to recall my life in the worst ways now
it becomes so loud
the fear i’d let you down
i decide to face all my worst days now 
and it’s alright 
and it’s okay
i don’t have the time to waste another night

i don't know why
i don't want to see you
and all the things that i know i should believe

it's alright

On this road 
I tread alone 
Longing for a love
I've known
Restless soul 
In a world so cold

Josiphine you're a dream
Sweet Josiphine you are the moon the stars
The moon the stars
  
Like a ship in a stormy sea 
I'm lost in the waves 
Do I crave a certain touch
That's not within reach

Josiphine you're a dream
Sweet Josiphine you are the moon the stars
The moon the stars

YOU'RE A DREAM

Depeche Mode - But Not Tonight - Mint Julep Cover

LST-117 THE VERY MOST "NEEDS HELP" cassette tape
Release date Oct 9, 2020

Needs Help is the fifth full-length album from The Very Most, which will be released on October 9, 2020 on Lost Sound Tapes and Kocliko Records. The title comes from the fact that Jeremy, the songwriter/main guy of the band, recorded a bunch of songs that, unbeknownst to him, were outside his vocal range. This required him to recruit a bunch of guest vocalists, including:

Melanie Whittle (The Hermit Crabs)
Kristine Capua (Tiny Fireflies)
Cristina Quesada (Elefant Records solo artist)
Gerri White (Arts & Leisure)
Sally Jati (Starry Eyed Cadet)
Gina Gregerson (Dirt Fishermen/Lovey)
Sarah Lowenbot (Thee Ahs)
Ashley Eriksson (LAKE)
Adam and Darcie
Eli Moore (LAKE)

Needs Help is also an appropriate title due to its mental health connotations (positive or not). The lyrics deal with everyday anxieties concerning parenthood, faith, fallible memories, internet nonsense, and how hard it is, ultimately, to change your life for the better. There's also a song about getting caught being choked up listening to Automatic For The People in your cube at work for the first time in 25 years.

The music itself falls broadly within indiepop, calling to mind at times Belle and Sebastian, Pains of Being Pure at Heart, or Camera Obscura, but is a bit more experimental and, perhaps, a bit darker than what you might expect from the genre. It includes synth textures, dream-pop influences, the requisite boy/girl vocals, and lush harmonies. It's the culmination of five pretty intense years of effort and it had to get made. We hope people enjoy it.
