Lovely sad song! Love the lyrics as well!

I've been listening to this song for years. Great tune!

Love the guitars, sounds great in the headphones. Wonderful vocal and track !

yeah, thats's so good.   what a great recording.

Be her superwoman! 
Also, Adoring this song :D 
Its so pure ~

Particularly like the guitar part which stays on the same note

both, but especially the higher more rhythmic part (I've just had to google ostinato)

Various Eggs realize that their first release will set the expectations for all releases that follow.  With this in mind, their initial E.P. reflects a wide breadth of influences.  If the next release were a horror movie soundtrack, it could be anticipated by this E.P.  If the next release were a cover of the entirety of Neil Young’s Tonight’s The Night, this could be anticipated by the E.P. as well.  And somewhere between these extremes lie Various Eggs.

Lyrics:

I was in bed, half asleep, not alone, when I got the call. 
She couldn't breathe, lost her feet, she said, 
“Please, I’m about to fall.” 

Where is Superman? The Flash? Where’s the next Hulk 
when they’re all tired and lost their nerve after the bomb? 

“I can’t think, need a drink, Vicodins to steady my nerves. 
If I am the last to survive, well, what is that worth? 

Who replaces Superman? The Flash? Where’s the next Hulk 
when they’re all tired and lost their nerve after the bomb?” 

I’m to expect that I’ll feel incomplete for quite a while. 
But to get up, keep routines, face the day, even fake a smile. 

“For this too shall pass,” it’s said and it’s said cuz it’s true. 
When next they summon us all up, it’ll just be me and you. 

We’ll drag ourselves along til we find purpose anew. 
And, if that never comes, you've got me and I've got you.

The cat’s out of the bag… Our new 3 track E.P. is coming out on November 3rd! It’s also up and live on Bandcamp already because, well, I messed up.  Anyway, I’m thrilled to finally have released Five Four Girls. 

We started working on these songs at Rabid Ears Recording back in 2019 with the intention of releasing them as this E.P. From those recording sessions, only the drum tracking for the title track has made it to this release. Tricia and I recorded (or re-recorded) everything else at our own homegrown studio that we refer to as Mushroomtopia. The reason for that nickname is obvious if you’ve ever seen my moss-covered yard after a rainstorm.

"Five Four Girls" and "To Jenny" are songs written as a character.  They aren't me.  They aren't Tricia. But, it was fun to go to such unsavory places for some pretty creepy songs.

"Drone Bomb You" is an attempt to write something of a geo-political song.  And, boy, that is a difficult thing to write.  The song ended up a critique of another songwriter's attempt to write an urgent song about the state of politics. Kyle from Book of Wyrms guests on lead guitar on this song!

I thank Tricia for continuing to work with me and for enthusiastically jumping into the role of production partner. I thank Allen Bergendahl for his ongoing support, friendship, expertise and advice. I thank Kyle Lewis for many hours of shredding. I thank Laura Manchester for embracing my visual ideas and running with them to fantastic results. And thank you to Todd, Ben and Jake; “Five Four Girls” wouldn’t be what is without you.
