Pulling Teeth

Met her there in herald’s square, 
with a bright pink suitcase, dressed up to the nines. 

Walked around koreatown sippin cocktails 
as she poured herself some wine. 

We left the city on a midnight train, 
headed right back to the house. 

This ain’t no season for a miniskirt, 
but baby how you fill it out now. 

Yuri why would you come to 
Jersey in late December 
tell me why I had left you then. 

Kiss me Like we’re in high school 
Tell me you’ll stay for new years 
Fool me just like I fooled you then. 

New years eve, an eighth of weed, 
a fold out sofa bed, a foreign ghost. 

Getting stoned we shed our clothes, 
did things your boyfriend doesn’t have to know. 

Cause after all he’s just a bleach blonde boy, 
who thinks he’s got an angel on his hands. 

And he don’t know that you could make such noise, 
just get your story straight before you land. 

Despite the distance you showed no resistance, 
but said you'd be back in the springtime. 
3 AM subway from time square to the runway, 
and we'll never speak again. Oh, these crimes. 

Leave me up here for the winter 
Beauty, the loveliest liar. 
Use me, I promise that I’ll behave. 

Still believes you met up with old friends 
Ladies that you knew in college 
Leave me, I promise I won’t complain. 

Tell me that we had a chance then 
Lying, say you’ll leave your boyfriend 
Let me just dance with a ghost tonight. 

Use me, just say that you won’t stop 
Moving until the ball drops 
Fool me, tell me it’s all alright.

While on a writing retreat in the sleepy southern town of Benton, Mississippi, the members of New York's Ava Luna came across an abandoned house while on a walk through the woods.  Overgrown, rotting, and littered with evidence of its past inhabitants, the maze-like dwelling would haunt their psyches throughout the writing and recording of their third full-length Infinite House.  Like Borges' "Library of Babel", the seemingly endless rooms and hallways in the old house felt like a metaphor for the invisble, internal labyrinths, which the band explores lyrically and sonically on their new album.  

Self-recorded in Benton and at Gravesend Recordings, the Brooklyn studio run by drummer Julian Fader and vocalist/guitar player Carlos Hernandez, and mixed by Dave Fridmann (Flaming Lips, Spoon, MGMT), it is safely their most polished recording to date. But their trademark intensity, mirthful humor, and angularity remain resolutely in place, the burnished surfaces illuminating the stories beneath like never before.  Working with Fridmann, Fader and Hernandez artfully employ the studio to further the album's preternatural vibe.  As Hernandez explains "Dave Fridmann was able to augment this music in a really special way, removing it from the literal realm and putting it in a really psychedelic/fictional place."  By questioning, or maybe just forgetting the rules of the real world, on Infinite House the band has grown beyond the "nervous soul" descriptor they've been tagged with in the past, delivering an album on which nightmarish moments can phoenix into revelations that help us reconnect with the surreal magic in our everyday lives.  Of course, you don't have to dig into the intellectual concepts or references to love this album, or enjoy the band's twisted mystical perspective.  On a very superficial level, these songs are sensual, vibrant, and fun.
