Don't Leave Me Here

She Loves Ted Bundy

A Heart Full of Headstones

You had it coming to you
Always pushing limits to the edge
Now they’re gunning for you
Stepping on your fingers as you hold on to the ledge

Your heart’s full of headstones
You’re dancing with their ghosts upon your grave
Who’s gonna save you

From the darkness that has closed around you
The hole grows deeper as you dig to hide your past
Their knives are out from years of goading
Not even knowing, will your friendships last

What were you thinking?
Drowned it all by drinking it away
Knowing that you’d have to pay

Your heart’s full of headstones
You’re dancing with their ghosts upon your grave
Who’s gonna save you now

Your heart’s full of headstones
You’re dancing with their ghosts upon your grave
No one’s gonna save you now

Brisbane-based rock band, Flint continues producing new and punchy music, and is ready to launch their latest single STOP. This grungy guitar tune, as is the style Flint tends to lean on, gets listeners jamming and lets your mind wonder with the lyrics open to a million different interpretations. Drums, guitars and voice share the top podium as the mix allows each instrument to break through with a singular power that enhances the collective sound. 
While the chorus transports you back to a total 90’s grunge feel, STOP’s dynamics tandem the lyrics to provoke emotions and surprises. STOP is rock, grunge and freedom, all wrapped up in a succinct, resonant Aussie guitar sound.

STOP

Stop

I'd been toying with the idea of doing a piano-led song for a while and had this motif kicking around that I decided to develop into a full song. It turned out to be the most complex song I've ever produced in terms of arrangement. Hopefully it was worth all the hours spent working on it.

Just You Wait

Taken from the self-titled debut 12", out on 27th October. Released on limited edition 12" (100 ruby tuesday, 200 black) and digital formats.

Biography
Starting out as a recording project between Angus Lord, Claudia Serfaty and Stephanie Hughes, the germ of what would eventually become the Stroppies was formed around a kitchen table in Melbourne's inner west early 2016. The initial idea was to create open ended music, collaged quickly and haphazardly together on a Tascam 4 track Portastudio that drew on stream of consciousness creativity and a DIY attitude a la Guided By Voices and The Great Unwashed. The desire to move beyond the pre programmed drum patterns available on their Casio Keyboard led to the addition of Rory Heane on drums and a more conventional band dynamic.

In Late 2016, Alex Macfarlane recorded the band in their lounge room direct to 4 track, capturing 7 songs that would become their 2017 self titled cassette tape debut. The songs were bounced back and forth from tape machine to computer to tape machine to computer again. In keeping with the bands initial aesthetic, dubs were laid over a 4 month period incrementally on different devices as members had babies, explored intercontinental love affairs and set up homes together. Since the release of the tape, Adam Hewwit has joined the group on third guitar as they settle down into exploring the new band dynamic and focus on their next recording project.

The Stroppies is composed of members of many Melbourne and UK bands (Claudia is originally from London) including Dick Diver, Primetime, Possible Humans, White Walls, Boomgates, The Stevens, See/Saw to name a few. They make modest, idiosyncratic pop songs that reward with repeated listening.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The city's heat
The city's heat, 
Came closing in 
Closing in.
And I'm in retreat
It's got me beat
I cast my hand
Cast my hand in clay
In clay
In clay

[Verse 2]
There's ink on my skin
Blood on my feet
Just leave me be
Let me sleep
The map of my sins 
I lost in the street
Don't look at me 
Don't look at me that way
That way
That way

[Chorus 1]
You must think I am blind
Or dumb enough to not know my own mind

[Verse 3]
My indigo bird
My painted word
Will wash away
Wash away
I laid my head on your backlit bed
I've crawled and strayed
Will not be saved today
Today
Today
Today
Today
'Coz man is made of clay

[Chorus 1]
I don't want to seem unkind
But I need to find
Some place to unwind
