My Heart Longs For You, Pizza

The Mad Doctors - Dead Beach

Awaited for years by the large nationwide cult of Boggers in the know, Erin Birgy's second LP at the helm of the fog-shrouded ship they call MEGA BOG is an instant and timeless classic. It's equal parts nostalgic and futuristic, mapping a new, jazz-literate and free form of songcraft onto the model of the traditional guitar-based band. It's poetry on roller skates, defying recognizable structures in favor of a stream-of-consciousness flow that guides Erin's lyrics around their many soft and uncertain turns. It's an inspiring example of a unique vision carried to it's most honest and vulnerable realization. Happy Together was assembled on tape amidst a lot of movement, including Erin's relocation from Seattle to New York. Like Joni Mitchell or Beefheart, Birgy has a seemingly magical ability to steer a diverse bunch of players into her own dream-world. And this album has a lot of players, many with big credentials we'll refrain from mentioning (except for Zach Burba and Will Murdoch from IJI, and James Krivchenia from BIG THIEF, who earn mentions for being particularly present). Considering its variety of personnel and its long gestation, Happy Together is a remarkably consistent and complete record that cuts the deepest when experienced from start to finish, as it arcs from the surreal bubblegum tempos of “Diznee” and “Marianne,” thru the extended dreamscapes of songs like “192014,” and out to the free-wheeling catharsis of “Blackout” and “Fwee.” Take the journey.

Lyrics:
We were sitting together
Forever in tune with the world around
And thats where They found us
Hiding in the basement of our house

The floodgates were open
And the water filled my empty lungs
The world is breaking
Its breaking us apart

Go back to the start
Fly up to the stars
Its breaking us apart

We stand on a mountain
A blanket of wind covering us
We take in the silence
Pretending not to see how we messed up

The oceans they dance
And sing a song for the sister moon
As they touch the ground
Oh what i would do to come to you

And All that was found
Is nothing compared to the sound
Of your breath enveloping
My body on the mountain top

Take your oceans 
And use them to paint the skys
Push out the ground
Lets fly up to the stars

Holy Ruahk from the start
Come inside and break my heart
Gather all the birds
Come take me to the stars

Show me the name of the wind
So i can move the mountains behind me
And force out whatevers inside me
Take me to the start

Breath out and realign me
Force out whatevers inside me
Move the mountinas behind me
Youre breaking me apart

Go back to the start
Fly up to the stars
Its breaking us apart
Fly me to the stars
Breaking me apart
Take me to the stars
Go back to the start
Its breaking me apart

Ruahk

Take Me to the Stars

LYRICS:
I could be your montage and you my Capulet. 
And I could be your Romeo but you're no Juliet. 
Tell me what I want to know and then seem to forget. 
All this time I wanted love but never thought ahead. 

Don't say I never wanna see you break down, never wanna hear you've lay around, never wanna hear you make a sound. 
Go away no never mind won't you please stay. I'm tired of getting my way anyway. I'm tired of getting my way anyway.    

And I found that I needed less when everything was shared, it always came out different and then seemed too prepared. 
All along you knew that I'd only see the best. 
Tell me what I wanna know and then tell me the rest. 

Don't fail me now cause I'm a loaded gun, so tell me where you are it's fun to watch you run. 

All this time I wanted too but never seemed to care, all these things we never did, why be so unfair? 
You went around at the sound of an open gate and told me it's all okay and don't write it down it's a line I'll negotiate and you'll find it's all the same.

Don't fail me now cause I'm a loaded gun, so tell me where you are it's fun to watch you run.
Don't fail me now cause I'm a loaded gun, so tell me where you are it's fun to watch you run. 

I could be your montage and you my Capulet. 
And I could be your Romeo but you're no Juliet. 
Tell me what I want to know and then seem to forget. 
All this time I wanted love but never thought ahead. 
You went around at the sound of an open gate and told me it's all okay and don't write it down it's a line I'll negotiate and you'll find it's all the same.

Don't say I never wanna see you break down, never wanna hear you've lay around, never wanna hear you make a sound. 
Go away no never mind won't you please stay. I'm tired of getting my way anyway. I'm tired of getting my way anyway.

Nightlands, the project of Philadelphia-based Dave Hartley (best known as a core member and longtime bassist of The War On Drugs), will release his third album, I Can Feel the Night Around Me, on May 5th via Western Vinyl. I Can Feel the Night Around Me showcases Hartley's ability to layer his voice and conjure some of the most beautiful virtual choirs in modern music. Throughout, he uses meticulous choral arrangements and wistful major-seventh chords to evoke a longing for a future that once lay ahead, but has drifted out of reach. Today, Nightlands presents selections from the forthcoming release: “Fear of Flying,” “Only You Know,” and “Depending On You.” These follow lead single, “Lost Moon.”

“Fear of Flying,” one of the album’s most immediate songs, was composed with minimalist synth virtuoso Frank LoCrasto. Soft tangles of voice wash up on the shore of the song's warbling synth backbone, nudging the album briefly into the sunlight without sacrificing its melancholy, late-night vibe.

Hartley covers a number off Dion's Phil Spector-produced Born to Be With You with “Only You Know.” "I recorded it for fun, as break from the seriousness that can infect record-making," Hartley says. "Interpreting other people's songs allows you to wear a new hat and take chances that don't naturally occur to you. I wanted to croon a little bit, which I don't normally do." The recording pushes his voice to new heights and blends remarkably well with the rest of the album's shades of psyched-out doo wop, also heard on the adoring “Depending On You.”
 
Nightlands will tour North America following the album’s release. The Nightlands live band is Dave Hartley on vocals and guitar, Anthony LaMarca (The War On Drugs, Dean & Britta) on drums, Eliza Hardy Jones (Strand of Oaks, Grace Potter an the Nocturnals) on keys and vocals, Jesse Hale Moore on keys and vocals and Scott Churchman (Chubby Checker) on bass.

We were playing twenty one
In the pitch black of a country night
I was struck like a drum
and I rolled my eyes trying to sit tight

I was dangerously tangled second time I met
Now I’m so impatient to adore you
I crashed my car last night

We were drinking warm wine
From paper cups that we left outside
God I wished you were mine
As your skin light up in the sunrise

I was dangerously tangled second time I met
Now I’m so impatient to adore you
I crashed my car last night

So dangerously tangled second time I met
Now I’m so impatient to adore you
I crashed my car last night
