Five Things We Liked This Week - 22/11/19

Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning (or when we receive 200 submissions, whichever is sooner) - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 18th November: from around midday on Friday you'll be able to hear our shortlist and pick your favourites on this week's Listening Post which will appear at freshonthenet.co.uk/batch345

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it’s probably because another of your tracks appeared in our Fresh Faves or on the BBC Music Introducing Mixtape during the last three months — we ask that artists featured on either wait three months before resubmitting to give others a chance. We also don’t accept SoundCloud Go tracks, which can only be heard as 30 second previews, and tracks made private after submission, which will be invisible to everyone. You will be able to resubmit the track in future. Tracks that have been previously submitted will also be removed.

ENTIRE INBOX: Batch 345

Thanks to everyone who came by Fresh On The Net at the weekend to check out  Listening Post 345 and tell us which tracks they liked best. Here, in alphabetical order, are our readers' top favourites. Our reviews are written by Fresh On The Net's Steve Harris - and you can read them at http://freshonthenet.co.uk/faves345

Not Alone

Fast Forward 060418

You have broken through the veil of faded glass 
It’s gone away now 
The pain now has subsided at last 
Feel your senses tingle at the slightest touch 
A gentle faded whisper of I love you very much 

Kaleidoscopic images rush by 
Showered in colour, reminiscing life 
Never felt quite like this 
Never felt so alive 
How can you imagine this? 
How can you feel so much bliss in the blink of an eye? 

Come with us 
You are safe now 
You’re away now 
The Crossing has begun

You tried to wait
You tried to show me
You could relate
You’re on my side

And in your way
You think you owe me
A price to pay
That’s unsettled 

Sure and sure enough

And so decades 
Begin to own me
I lose the dates 
I lost the time

A slow decay
I lost the glow of you
You couldn’t relate
I’m on your side

Sure and sure enough

You give it up,
You run it up,
You wonder why I work too hard,
You wonder why I kick through scars

You come on up,
Say you're feeling stuck,
I wonder what it takes to start
You feeling like you played your part

But hey,
Listen
You and I,
We don't know what the fuck that we're
doing with this

And hey,
Listen
You and I,
We don't know,
We're just going along with this shit

Yeah so what?
I never brought it up
I've never really been too smart
When the feelings come that break me apart

So live it up
If you're a runner-up
You wonder why you feel too small
While I wonder what it takes you to call first

But hey,
Listen
You and I,
We don't know what the fuck that we're
doing with this

And hey,
Listen
You and I,
We don't know,
We're just going along with this shit

Do we need
Do we need
What do we need
To regrow it?

Do we need
Do we need
What do we need
To regrow it?

But hey,
Listen
You and I,
We don't know what the fuck that we're
doing with this

What Are We Doing?

LYRICS: 

I’m not surprised by your decision 
You said your piece and left 
Who am I to hold you of your own accord
There’s not much time left
My time you can’t afford 

I’ve become so insecure
to the point I don’t know myself no more 
See I thought love was everything 
I don’t have much luck with men 

This time 
I’m packing up and leaving
Off without you 
In my mind
I found too many reasons to doubt you

Seeking validation 
Questioning my own worth 
I’m tired of all this dedication 
When I’m the first hurt 
I’m not one to lose 
But I’d rather that than feel used 

This time
I’m packing up and leaving
Off without you
In my mind
I found too many reasons to doubt you
You brought out the worst in me
And despite what we’ve been through 
I Love You 

Without you
Without you 

This time 
I’m packing up and leaving
Off without you
In my mind
I found too many reasons to doubt you
You brought out the worst in me 
And despite what we’ve been through 
I Love you, 

Love you, love you

I Love You

Sometimes I feel like a guilty pleasure
Sometimes it don’t feel like pleasure at all
Face in the air like I’m trying to fool ya
What a surprise I’m just fooling myself

Glued to my phone I’m just trying to hear ya
Sweat on the glass burning holes in my hand
I don’t wanna believe in a new communion
Pour out the wine taste the blood in my breath

Till I go and find out
It’s so easy
Turn and walk away from all the sadness
Even if it feels too hard to handle
I know it’s just a reason to let it fly

Bending my will but the effort is wasted
Hung up and dry just a tool in the shed
Springing the trap cause it’s testing my patience
What a surprise it was all in my head

Going to Hell guess they killed me with kindness
Drank all my time now I’m eating the chance
Is a moment of truth such an inconvenience
Peel off the rind bite the fruit in my hands

Till I go and find out
It’s so easy
Turn and walk away from all the sadness
Even if it feels too hard to handle
I know it’s just a reason to let it fly

red wednesday

it's time to throw a brick
it's red wednesday
from now on no more sick
it's red wednesday
chestnuts roasting in the pot
on red wednesday
foxes roam round ayer's rock
that's red wednesday

dadadadadadadada
dadadadadadadada

when red wednesday comes along
it is usually quite strong
but it only takes a week or so
until it's gone

valentines or punk rock bands
you send them 
grenadines, tomato plants
i dig them
which day shall stay with me
my red wednesday
come and end my misery
my red wednesday

Something To Care About

Art-punks Deliluh have returned with their second album of 2019. Recorded in the same veterans hall 5 months prior to it’s sibling record (Oath Of Intent), Beneath The Floors delves deeper into their dark imagination, stretching further into stylistic extremes. Spoken stories that thread through the ringing clamour of post-punk anthems (Incantessa, Lickspittle: A Nut in the Paste) are juxtaposed by the soft whisper of ballads (Via5A, Hangman’s Keep) and sinister instrumental passages (Falcon Scott Trail, Con Art Inc.) Rests between songs are seldom. Hard cuts and hiss from the reel-to-reel tape sessions inject a spirit of conviction through each passing movement, leaving behind a sense of wonder in their wake.

Beneath The Floors

Deliluh - Beneath The Floors

First single from the Parisian quintet's second album "Juillet", out January 24th, 2020 via Trouble In Mind Records.

En Attendant Ana "Words" (Trouble In Mind Records)

Acerbic yet winsome Scottish indiepoppers The Just Joans return with the dazzlingly maudlin The Private Memoirs and Confessions of the Just Joans, a deeply personal collection of songs that hazily recall the past and contemplate the futility of the future. 

A titular twist on the classic gothic horror novel The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner by compatriot James Hogg, the new album is the follow-up to 2017’s You Might Be Smiling Now… and contains the kind of melodies and mockery that led Uncut to class the band as the point at which “Stephin Merritt lies down with The Vaselines.”

At the forefront remain the mischievous lyrics and heartfelt vocals of siblings David and Katie Pope, aided and abetted by Chris Elkin on lead guitar, Fraser Ford on bass guitar and Jason Sweeney on drums. Yet it is the recruitment of multi-instrumentalist Arion Xenos and guest appearance of Butcher Boy’s Alison Eales to arrange strings that have helped elevate the band’s music to new heights. 

Their progression is most noticeable on lead single “Dear Diary, I Died Again today”, a painfully beautiful admission of everyday anxiety and “When Nietzsche Calls”, the triumphant cry of a spurned lover revelling in the misery of their ex to a backdrop of trumpets and violins. The juxtaposition of the fragility shown in these tracks with the menace of “Wee Guys (Bobby’s Got A Punctured Lung)” – an observation and understanding of the casual violence that once cast a shadow over the band’s hometown – highlights The Just Joans’ ability to seamlessly flip between sensitivity and danger, and sums up why Highway Queens described them as the “perfect Glasgow kiss.”

The Private Memoirs and Confessions of the Just Joans is a veritable smorgasbord of misery, longing and unrequited love; stories of small town resentments, half-forgotten school friends, failing relationships and awkward workplace conversations. As David explains: “It’s a collection torn from the pages of the diary I haven’t kept over the past 25 years. There are songs about places and people I vaguely remember, feelings I think that I once may have felt and the onset of middle-aged ennui.”

Despite entering new territory with the addition of brass and strings, they have nevertheless maintained the DIY ethos that made them darlings of the underground indie-pop scene, with each song on the album recorded and produced by the band in various gloomy bedrooms around Glasgow.

'The Place I Want To Be' Lyrics

Old town seven times erased 
Crawled out from the pyre again
This is the place I want to be
Is the place I’ll fall 

Silkworm spin a thread for me
No waste, nothing left that I don’t need  
Yours is the face I want to see
It’s the place I’m warm

And I won’t turn my back on this 
Though I never knew that I wanted it 
Bough bent beneath my weight 
I’m broke
In my own
Kinda way

It’s magical
And I’m allowed 
To see it straight
I’m older now 
It thawed me out 
It’s in my wake 

This is the place I want to be
It’s the place I’m yours
This is the pain I longed to feel
You’re the place I’m home 

I won’t turn my back on this

All Your Life

I'll stay awake all night,
you should come over here.
I'll let you out,
I'll let you in.
Maiden, you look so annoyed.
Oh, you should come over,
my tiny satellite.

It's a cloudy day in San Francisco,
I'll go for a walk
orbiting around you like Callisto,
your tiny satellite.
Sea lion dancing bachata down in Lombard Street.
Is that a smile at the edge of your mouth, or what?
Look at the clouds,
there's a dog with three legs and one eye.
I'll be waiting here for the Sun.

I think it's just a matter of time
just here, up here,
for the sunshine.
We'll stay awake all night,
we should remain silent now.
There is no rush
my deadly sin.
Maybe I hate turning points.
Oh, our night's not over,
my tiny satellite.
 
It's a cloudy day in San Francisco,
I'll go for a walk
orbiting around you like Callisto,
your tiny satellite.
Sea lion dancing bachata down in Lexington.
Is that a smile at the edge of your mouth, or what?
Look at the clouds,
there's a dog with three legs and one eye.

I'll be waiting here for the Sun.
I'll be waiting here for the sunshine.

Can't Blame a Kid
