Face Your Fear

On And On

HOAX - Barely

[Verse 1]
You, you pick up
Where she left off
But I need a change
I get away
The way you blow my phone up when
It’s getting late
I lose my faith

[Pre-Chorus]
There’s no easy way to say this
I’m afraid
Why you always want tomorrow
Without today?

[Chorus]
Well ask me if I feel
Ask me if I’m real
Ask me if I’m anything at all
And I will say barely
Barely, barely

[Verse 2]
You, you give up
Where she left off
Say I need to change
I play it safe
The way you curse my voicemail
When it’s getting late
I lose my faith

[Pre-Chorus]
There’s no easy way to say this
I’m afraid
Why you always want tomorrow
Without today?

[Chorus]
Well ask me if I feel
Ask me if I’m real
Ask me if I’m anything at all
And I will say barely
Barely, barely
Ask me if I feel
Ask me if I’m real
Ask me if I’m anything at all
And I will say barely
Barely, barely

[Bridge]
I knew a girl from the Jersey Shore
She used to make me make the drive
When she wanted more, and we would
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive
She told me time don’t exist
It’s a gun in hand and we all
Pull the trigger just to get her mad and we
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive
And all the pretty people
With their silhouettes
Wait for Armageddon's coming
Just to clear their debts, oh yeah we
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive
And if we ever get better
It’s because ourselves
And if we make our way to heaven
It’s cause we’re in hell, oh yeah we
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive

I kill, when you kill, people
And I will, if you will, equal
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive

I kill, when you kill, people
And I will, if you will, equal
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive

I kill, when you kill, people
And I will, if you will, equal
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive

I kill, when you kill, people
And I will, if you will, equal
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive

I said
I kill, when you kill, people
And I will, if you will, equal
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive

“Barely” is about finding the cure to the epidemic that we all live in. No one person has the same exact opinions and perceptions as another, yet time and time again, the destructive notion that we all “barely” become what we want to be continues to persist. The song reflects on those tensions, arguments, and frustrations that result from being forced to feel ashamed of our dreams, our emotions, and ourselves. In essence, “Barely” is about accepting one another for our individualities.

Sugar

Welcome to the rock’n’roll manifestation of Eddie Murphy’s 1987 “Raw” concert. If you haven’t seen it or listened to it lately, it’s a remarkable, rapid-fire onslaught of hilarity that rages with new ideas and jokes that you hadn’t heard before at every turn, and Eddie never misses a beat. Enter “Leisure Opportunity” by PROTO IDIOT - né Andrew Anderson, also of Manchester’s THE HIPSHAKES, and his pals Callum Darley (drums) and Michael Seal (bass). “If you like that, then you’ll love this” is the maniacal chant on “I’m An Artist.” Hear it enough and you’ll believe it! The Eddie Murphy parallels shouldn’t be too much of a stretch, but if it seems a bit obtuse, think Ray Davies with Attention Deficit Disorder. Better? Either way, “Leisure Opportunity” is no comedy album, per se, but it’s riddled with humor on both the musical and lyrical fronts. Try not to guffaw at a line that tells you what you’re listening to: “DRUMS! BASS! VOCALS! GUITAR!” on “Yes Yes Yes Yes,” but the unintentional appropriation of Gloria Estefan’s “Turn The Beat Around” chord progression on “Angry Vision” deserves a “HEE-HAW!” at the very least, to say nothing of Anderson’s first person narrative on the “Theme” when he declares “I can’t even play guitar.” Spoiler: he can indeed play guitar, and the orchestra is also proficient on DRUMS! BASS! VOCALS! (debatable) respectively, with composition / production duties that can cream virtually anyone making kid’s music today.

PROTO IDIOT - Leisure Opportunity - LP - 04 What Is My Purpose?

Founded in 2002, Slovenly Recordings was a new direction for label veteran Pete "Stickerguy" Menchetti. Having just scrapped his 702 Records (Scared of Chaka/ The Loudmouths) imprint, Pete was on a mission to release only the best in garage and punk shit rock for crazy kids all over the planet. Starting with a very fine full length release by the Netherlands' swampiest caveman blues duo Lo-Lite, Slovenly has grown to be one of the most respected labels world wide for ripping and REAL rock'n'roll!

All of our releases are available on VINYL, with many of the LPs also having a CD edition.

Slovenly imprint BLACK GLADIATOR is run by Bazooka Joe of The Thing With Two Heads DJ duo. Totally corrosive garage-punk, sometimes psychedelic, and often with a warped hip-hop sensibility, Black Gladiator has released records by Tunnel of Love, Vex Ruffin and the Lo-Fi Jerkheads, Gino and the Goons, Sick Thoughts, The Monsieurs, The Hussy, PyPy, New Coke, Obnox, The Psyched and Electric Crush.

Discovering and sharing unsigned & small label indie gems (mostly) plus occasional bona fide classics

Post-punk, new wave, punk, garage, alternative rock, dream pop, electronica, reggae, world, psychedilia, folk, surf, blues and classic soul: if it has an indie vibe or beautiful vocals I'm there for it.

Reached limit for following, can't follow back but message me with new indie tracks you think I should listen to.
