Couldn't Leave U If I Tried

Donzii - Rightway Highway

Life gets complicated when you're trying to juggle careers, responsibilities and relationships. That's a key takeaway from Madeline Finn's unflinching, Americana-influenced "Asleep in the Driveway," a song whose easygoing tempo masks turbulent lyrics about the disconnect between expectations and reality: "Now, I know I made a promise/Baby, let's be honest/You're still waking up alone." That scenario understandably causes more questions than resolutions ("Is this what you asked me for?/Is that what you wanted?") along with no shortage of self-doubt and intense soul-searching. 

"This song came from a phone call with my wife (then fiancée) about being overwhelmed with emotion surrounding budgets and finances while I was on the road touring," Finn says. "This sparked a reflection into the things that make us feel like subpar partners. 'Asleep in the Driveway' is a look into the insidious transactional element that creeps into so many of our relationships."

Mandrake Handshake return with their brand new single 'Emonzaemon', taken from their brand new EP 'The Triple Point of Water' out on November 18th. 

'Emonzaemon' is a fearless psych-explosion representing the eclectic sound of the hypnotic 9 piece psych-collective, with the main inspiration for the song coming from a ninja from the anime 'Katanagatari'. Indicative of the self-honed style they dub ‘Flowerkraut’, Mandrake unleash a hedonistic brain-frying feast of krautrock, art-pop and psychedelia, spiced with enigmatic grooves and fearless improvisations.
