I Want To Tell You

Should we just carry on
Our fire's dance around
The creature looming in the river's bed

A spell beneath the ground
Threw the hill upside down
If we're all leaving, where do we run to?

Was this part of what you believed?
I couldn't say
I couldn't say
What was that hidden in the ruins?
Left over me
Left over me
This is a heart, and that's what you're beating
Is that enough,
Is that enough?

Cause since you fled the scene
What remains is obscene
I guess the layer left is just for show

And burried in concrete
The proof you swore to keep
Some kind of error shaped the tumor's glow

Why don't you take the whole
Since nothing else is sold
We burnt the rubber, we'll inhale the glue

And since the head won't fall
And there's no road back home
How many parts were we severed into

Is this the game?
Is this the game?
Should I still listen?
What should I blame?

And what's your name again?
What's your name again?
I see you shouting
But I can't hear a thing

Can’t Stop Dancing…

From an early age you caught the bug
When Elvis was omnipresent & you fell in love with
David Bowie, with old T-Rex
Then Debbie Harry & all the rest
Then you cut the coat tails of your parent’s tastes 
The first time you heard Terry Hall singing ‘Rat Race’
& life was more tribal & all your friends said
Are you one of us now? Or one of them?

& you said: 
I’m just me & I can’t stop dancing – this is me & I can’t stop dancing
I’m just me & I can’t stop dancing  
I’m just me & I can’t stop dancing – this is me & I can’t stop dancing
I’m just me & I can’t stop dancing  

Teenage obsession - competing styles
Jealous possession to soundtrack your denial of 
Labile emotions blowing hot & cold
Seeking out the new finds, discovering the old

& you said: 
Look at me I can’t stop dancing – this is me & I can’t stop dancing
I’m just me & I can’t stop dancing  
I’m just me & I can’t stop dancing – this is me & I can’t stop dancing
I’m just me & I can’t stop dancing  

From latest crush to latest craze 
To last Sunday's chart
From first love - to first kiss
To your first broken heart…

A spaghetti junction of style & taste 
To trigger memories of people, times & places
& just when you think you've heard it all before
Here comes a new one to get you back on the dance floor

& you say: 
Look at me I can’t stop dancing – this is me & I can’t stop dancing
I’m just me & I can’t stop dancing  
I’m just me & I can’t stop dancing – this is me & I can’t stop dancing
I’m just me & I can’t stop dancing…

Los Angeles-based group The Spyrals are gearing up to release their new album ‘Same Old Line’ on October 30th. Taking cues from The Velvet Underground, 13th Floor Elevators and The Stooges by way of Neil Young, Bob Dylan and Muddy Waters, the record sees the band carve out eight songs of raw, back-to-basics rock’n’roll that marries white-knuckle garage-blues, psychedelic repetition and sun-baked alt-country to create “something new with an old soul”. The record is their fourth full-length to date and their first since signing to London-based label Fuzz Club.  

Armed with a guitar, harmonica and fuzz pedal, band-leader Jeff Lewis formed The Spyrals when he was living in San Francisco in the early 2010s. Now, though, he’s based in Los Angeles and finds himself backed by a new line-up of musicians. ‘Same Old Line’ was cooked up in new drummer Dash’s garage and recorded over the course of a few days and nights straight to a Tascam tape machine. Jeff recalls: “This is the first album recorded with a new lineup after I moved from San Francisco to Los Angeles. At the time of recording we werenʼt sure if this would be a Spyrals album or something under a different name. At some point during the mixing process I decided to keep moving on under the Spyrals name, so to me this album is a real turning point in the band’s history.”

The result is a record that’s just as rooted in the sounds of Nashville and the Mississippi Delta as it is the band’s West Coast garage-rock forebears. “I was heavy into listening to a lot of Neil Young and Crazy Horse during this period too which I can hear in some of the song structures. We actually all took a road trip to Bakersfield, CA to see Neil with Crazy Horse in concert around the time of working on the album.” Lyrically, Jeff says, “it feels like the most raw record so far and the most open and down to earth. Less psychedelic sounds and more real life emotions and situations.” The opening title-track ‘Same Old Line’, for example, is a song about “life’s ups and downs and how some people seem to have it easier than others. We’re all tied together whether we know it or not and in the end we all have our different struggles to get by and keep living.”

Elsewhere, ‘Don’t Turn Me Down’ is a defiant, overdriven ode to “trying to stay positive when obstacles seem to keep coming in the way” and ‘In Your Room’ is a piece of psychedelic alt-country about a “new romance, maybe a short fling, and wanting something to work out that you know won’t be possible”. Charting similar themes, ‘There’s A Feeling’ is about love and travelling (“two things that can be hard to do at the same time”) and ’Goodbye’ is an observation that “life is short and even the stars fade away eventually”, both delivered through the medium of stomping, blues-inflected garage-rock. ‘Just Won’t Break’, on the other hand, is a song about the American Dream and it's hopeless shortcomings, Jeff offering the following advice for his fellow country-men and -women: “Don’t let it get you down. Most of us are still waiting for it to come true.”

Arriving off the back of their 2012 self-titled debut, 2013’s ‘Out of Sight’ and last year’s ‘The Curse’, ‘Same Old Line’ marks a new chapter for the band who have spent the last decade picking up a growing international reputation for their fuzzed-out, driving rock’n’roll. They’ve played with the likes of Spectrum/Sonic Boom, Moon Duo, Fuzz, The Warlocks and Spindrift and performed at such festivals as SXSW, Desert Stars Festival, LA Psych Fest and in 2015 they even headlined a festival in Southern Russia (‘Spring Beat Festival’), one of the first US bands to play in the area. Right before the Covid-19 lockdown set in this year they’d also wrapped up a headline European tour just in the knick of time.

PEEL - Memory Loop

Lyrics:

Light fire & a tight knapsack
Got no intention of turning back
Put a target on my price
And I’ll lowball
Think about me during your downfall

Know its hard for you to compute
I’m more than just something to look through
Step down, I dismiss you
Step down

Do you find my kind unholy?
Terrified of my body
Throw a stone, oh do put me
Back in place
Do you find me egocentric?
Making up my own metrics?
Throw a stone, oh do put me
Back in place

Call me deadly 
Choking envy
You’re deadbeat
Past mistakes

Heading over the hills with little left to say
Can’t hold me back from that far away
Hope no-one sees the lines on my face when I arrive
The lines that you gave

I was always a mere thing in your eyes
Just a means to make what you’d like
Bending over, I was down on my might
So yours had the floor
You took all the awards

Would you like me over easy?
Don’t put yourself out to please me
Throw a stone, oh do put me
Back in place
Tell me I take mine with bitters
A shadow in one of your pictures
Throw a stone, oh do put me
Back in place

Call me deadly
Choking envy
You’re deadbeat
Past mistakes
Call me deadly
Choking envy
You’re deadbeat
Past mistakes

Call Me
Call Me
Choking
Choking
Choking envy
Choking envy
