Lyrics:

A million miles ago you seem 
Star that I just don't see anymore 

Lost on journeys we walked on 
Lost her voice is heard along the way 

Never going by your door 
Never feeling love like that anymore

Heal her soul, carry her, my angel, Ohio

Sorry that 
I could never love you back 
I could never care enough 
In these last days 

Her tears 
Fell on her pages found me out 
On her words I don't know what 
To do or say 

Wading through 
Warm canals and pools clear blue
The Tuscarawas flows into 
Prairie land 

Riding back 
To where the highway met 
Dead end tracks 
The ground is now cement and glass 
And far away 

Heal her soul, carry her, my angel, Ohio 

Lingering in 
What about the sweetness we knew 
What about what's good what's true 
From those days 

Can't count to 
All the lovers I've burned through 
So why do I still burn for you 
I can't say 

Never going by your door 
Never feeling love like that anymore

Heal her soul, carry her, my angel, Ohio

Dustin Christensen & Owsey - Carry Me, Ohio (Sun Kil Moon Cover)

Jenn Wasner and Andy Stack of Wye Oak have spent most of their lives in Baltimore, Maryland. But after two years of constant touring with Civilian, their highly lauded 2011 album, they landed on opposite sides of the country with an unforeseeable future ahead. Despite this newfound uncertainty, the two bandmates embraced their physical distance, passing ideas back and forth, allowing new work to evolve in their respective solitudes. Shriek is Wye Oak’s fourth full-length and the culmination of their intent to express the emotional and intuitive self by acting out animalistic exclamations through cathartic release. It is their most personal and confident declaration yet.

Newly inspired by playing bass, Jenn took up songwriting in a setting where the guitar did not dictate harmonic boundaries or require a call-and-response relationship with her voice, a hallmark of previous Wye Oak records. With her phrasing freed, now it is often Andy who interacts with Jenn’s vocals, playing syncopated and meditative keyboard parts, and the duo’s collaborative arrangements provide a backdrop in which both the arcs of melodies and the new rhythmic elements flourish.

To engineer, mix, and co-produce, they brought in Nicolas Vernhes of the Rare Book Room in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, whose inventive and forward-thinking approaches to production complemented their new direction. The result is a record of indisputable humanity. Shriek is a complete narrative of disorientation, loss, renewal, and empowerment.
