Poni Hoax - Life In A New Motion (Flavien Berger cover)

LOST

Flavien Berger - Vendredi

You're still not done there's still
So much to do
It's something good
It's meant for you

This place humbled you
Taught you what's true and real
This place gave you
Love to finally feel

The last lesson
Left to teach
Is to keep love
Still in your reach

Love stands for two
A healing heart beside you
A scar formed
A scar is still inside you

Love won't leave you again
If you fix yourself for good
As you learn to begin
He left you because
He was damaged from within

I can promise you this
Something good will happen
Try not to miss

Fill your heart and soul with new love
Find it today
You'll be whole
Once again

Back to the start one more time
Ease your mind
Look for the kind

Trust the process
Trust my words
This is your time
That the past is gone
And you're here to win

Love won't leave you again
If you fix yourself for good
As you learn to begin
He left you because
He was damaged from within

San Cisco - Awkward

Girard Freeloader is out now - http://norwegianarms.bandcamp.com

The world is constantly shifting, of course on a molecular level, but also some sort of poetic one, and for my tiny existence as a well. As we change locations, jobs, friends, and schools, things change about us. We get a moment to see ourselves in a vacuum, unaffected by a current location, its social constructs, and at a critical moment of being able to determine your self, thoughts, and worldview once more. It's the soft tissue that later forms solid bones, it's what fuels my Wanderlust.

I could break away from every choice I've ever made. 
Just my thoughts and my limbs and my beats and you I know. 
Shove the whole view aside, and turn towards the eternal eye (I?) 
I've come a long way but, it's everything that I know. 

But it could be better, I'm gonna make you feel better. 
Take to ideas and push them together, facing me you will feel better. 
It's everything that I know 

Sneak off and live with me, somewhere in the Pyrenees, 
take our time on the way, ain't we in? (I know). 
Together we'll ground our feet, the air perfumed, the scent of trees, 
I've come a long way, but it's everything that I know! 

It's a simple way from, all the thistle and the smog - 
take your time to figure, in a conscious manner, make a map of your mind.

Generationals - Put a Light On

The Zolas - Ancient Mars

The term ‘Norwegian Arms’, according to front-person and sole founding member Keith Birthday, describes the act of “grabbing slivers of fleeting moments across the globe, but in a self deprecating way.” Throughout the band’s existence, Birthday has done just that. The band’s debut record Wolf Like a Stray Dog captured a year of frozen solitude spent in the Siberian Taiga. Snapshots of intimate personal experiences mixed with stories of secret cities and musings on language and culture. Where Wolf focused on a specific feeling attached to a singular place, Norwegian Arms’ new album Girard Freeloader (out 1/20 on Mutual Crush) applies this concept to the entire world, with songs taking inspiration from the jungles of Peru, the forests of Washington state, and Keith Birthday’s native Philadelphia.


            Keith (also known in more professional circles as Brendan M) uses these places as jumping off points to ruminate about the complications of living in this modern world through the eyes of a “Freeloader”, the listless narrator who is searching simultaneously for a cup of coffee and his own deepest feelings. “West Queens Street West” turns a weekend trip to Toronto into thoughts about traveling as a break from the monotony of everyday Internet-centric life.  “East Hollywood” finds Birthday considering how distance and growth changes relationships over time while visiting friends in California. But the place that seemingly influences Girard Freeloader the most is the city of Philadelphia, where Keith found himself suddenly still after his long Russian sojourn, and where the record takes its name.  


Whether he’s talking about modern American colonialism as a traveling ESL teacher through an the lens of sucking up the last limited natural resources from a dying planet on “Resource Sucker”, feeling himself atrophy on “Visons of my Father,” or fantasizing about finding a better life in the Pyrenees mountains on “How We Move”, the feeling of returning to a familiar place after a long and affecting journey looms large over Girard Freeloader.

            The record was chiefly recorded by José Díaz Rohena at The Unknown, Phil Elverum’s studio in Anacortes, Washington and completed in Philadelphia and Birthday’s new home of New York. The music communicates a growth from the last album as well, a more cinematic and extended scope, with more room for contemplation than the previous record’s two minute punk-influenced blasts. Girard Freeloader feels like D’Angelo-influenced digital soul with the synthesizer drive of The Silver Apples and the groovy poly-rhythms of Tuareg guitarists, all culled from Birthday’s mind and the childhood mandolin on which he writes songs with a signature unorthodox finger-driven playing style. 

            While Birthday was recording, he took a break to visit Bowman’s Bay, a secluded beach on the outskirts of Anacortes. There he found inspiration for the lyrics for “Make The Rules”, the closing track to the album: “I can almost taste it, feet behind in the nectar line. Is it the only thing that binds? String of eternity? And isn’t it amazing, the breadth of the sea, the lines in the leaves? Just over the bay I can see it.”  Girard Freeloader is an album about contemplation and striving for self-betterment in the terrifying world in which we live. Maybe, if we all connect deeper with the places we hold dear, we can attain it. As Birthday expresses, “I’ve come a long way, but it’s everything that I know.”
