I'm Trash

I wrote Renaissance Fam to encourage progress, change, equity, inclusivity, and diversity. This song is a message to the subscribers of old ways of thinking that the "Renaissance Fam" is here to encourage positive and ethical changes without wasting any time. We're living in an age of progress and we need to embrace it.

Lyrics:

The Renaissance Fam is a work in progress
We need change
We need equity
We need something that works for everyone

1, 2, 3, Pick it up

Hold on
Wake up don't fake it up
Say what you gotta say
The renaissance fam got no time to play
They ain't got all day
No way
Uh uh
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
And let me say
You can fly with us
You can fly
Fly fly fly fly fly

The Renaissance Fam wants progress
And we never want less
It's a different lens
From all the rest
Oh yeah yeah
Did you catch that
Cuz we can't go back
No, no
We can't go back to the old, old
We can't be bought or sold, sold
Look at us go
Trailblazers, we're so bold
Can't hold us down, we do not slow down
We can't be controlled
We fly fly

We can't be bought or sold, sold
Did you catch that
We can't be bought or sold, sold
Yeah, yeah

We can't be bought or sold, sold
We can't be bought or sold, sold
We can't be bought or sold, sold
We can't be bought or sold, sold

Honest

If nothing had changed,
Would it have helped me out?
You don't feel the same
And I understand.
Nothing's the same
But I'll help you out.
Nothing's the same now.

I kind of guessed something was wrong,
Didn't want to believe 
Should've bit my lip just to prolong,
This overwhelming grief
Now I live at my parents house 
On my brothers sheets
They don't keep me warm; 
They don't smell of you
So I'll never sleep the same
But I'll help you out.
I know you sleep the same
But that doesn't help
There is no time to these days;
Every minute's a freeze frame
Where I blame myself.

This list of loss is so long
I've no time to read
There's a cloud of what it was
Over everything
And I've been trying to think
If it's you or the past that I still love
But I don't think I'll ever solve that.

For all it hurts, I'm a big boy now.
And you need to work on being nice to yourself.
Because you're perfect.
You're my best friend.
And we're both going to be fine.

"Breakfast Records are tickled pink to be releasing the debut album of local lo-fi hero SLONK.

'Songs About Tanks' is a game changer for this prolific young genius, an incredible, affecting collection of miniature masterpieces. Featuring guest contributions from Fenne Lily, Oliver Wilde, The Gin Birkins and Jamie Cruickshank, the album's credits read like a compendium of Bristol's most important new artists. We've had it on repeat for the past few months and are beyond stoked to finally be releasing it into the wild.

It is a thing of wonder. Behold."

It's all over now
I was hypnotized by why
we could not kill the light
Used to think that I was in the right
Now I know I'm wrong
You don't know what you want

Is it time to start again
I know I'll never win
I just want more time
Can't say goodbye
Walking down the line
Further
I just can't let it go
I just can't let it die

Is it time to go on
Long before these empty streets
wound into the cold dawn
Used to get along to get along
Used to matter now it's gone
Become the sun alone and withdrawn
You don't know what you want

Was I meant to stay
Silent tears that cry
there's nothing left to say
Used to think that I was in the way
Now I know my place
Getting further away
Don't remember my name

Is it time to start again
I know I'll never win
I just want more time
I can't say goodbye
Walking down the line
Further
I just can't let it go
I just can't let it die
I just want one more song
One more night

Cause we won’t need anymore
We’ve only one more to go
No we’ll not need anymore

give u a gift

it's a chain of information
ive seen these pursed lips down all three generations
but the fragments arent reforming
the potted history of mum

i lit a candle for you in the church spires i know that you adore
it only means a thing to me cause it means the world to you
i know youve seen each and everyone before
its all so cyclical 
i see your forehead fall
when you realise that its me whos got so tall

in this 
chain of information 
ive seen these pursed lips down all three generations
but the fragments arent reforming 
the potted history of mum

sugar and cream on starwberries turn into moudly milk in a million cups of tea
they're left cold as your days begin to fold into spikes of hosility
but its know its not you its just
the residue left by a callous brute
a generation taught to carry a child so that one day that child will carry you
and 
twenty lost years that whirl so fast over you

in this
chain of information 
ive seen these pursed lips down all three generations
but the fragments arent reforming
the potted history of mum

she turns to me and asks 
is that the little girl i carried 
now we carry you

Potted History of Mum

FREE DOWNLOAD! Taken from an as yet untitled release out on Art is Hard later this year.

Emily Isherwood (fka Nugget) is a Bristolian magician, familiar to anyone who has ever frequented one of Bristol's record shops or perhaps those who caught her fronting frenetic acts like Rink or Skeleton Frames. The decision at the end of last year to start recording music under her own name feels like a symbolic one. With it, Emily has drawn a line under what came before whilst also undoubtedly being influenced by those previous experiences.

'Calibrate' is the first track to be shared in this new guise and is a startling introduction. The stripped back sound of the earlier Nugget Demo EP is replaced by sparse electronics segueing into swelling choruses bubbling with raw emotion. It's not the sort of music you put on in the background, rather an all consuming experience requiring your full attention. Partly this is down to Emily's knack for stringing together poetic lines that feel effortless in their construction.

Recorded in a studio just outside Bath, the track forms part of a larger collection set for release on Art is Hard later in 2018. In the meantime, Emily is heading on a nine date UK tour with a full band in tow supporting Black Foxxes:

28th March, Manchester Deaf Institute
29th March, Leeds Key Club
30th March, Glasgow Cathouse
31st March, Newcastle Thinktank
2nd April, Nottingham Bodega
3rd April, Birmingham Mama Roux's
5th April, Southampton Joiners
6th April, London Heaven
7th April, Bristol Thekla
