u followed the suddenly emerging line
from one edge of the page to the
opposite but identical side
u've been looking for a sign
ever since the first time
that u saw that perfect color
from the corner of ur eye
u keep drawing the same shape
but give it different names
u keep crossing it out
it won't seem to erase
u try different colors
so it won't look like the others
might as well throw it all out
cus ur hand won't change
if the shape don't fit
better get over it
it's just an abstract
of a step back
and if the line's not straight
u better make it
so u bend it
til u break it
cut out all the details
so all that remains
is the contour
between what was mine
and what was yrs
but what was mine
and what was yrs?
so when the paint spills
and the ink bleeds
and u can't save
what was beneath
and the page tears
under ur hand
tell me what was the point
of all those plans?
nothing new, under the suuun—except for this absolutely killer album expertly blending heartfelt lyrics with soaring riffs & shuddering breakdowns. 😭💕 blood craisin
Jack has always had a knack for blending visceral indie rock-pop with experimental structures and harmonies, but the band’s really killing it here. Every track in this collection is special; the grooves are deep and the feeling is right. It feels like a vision fully realized...so much love for these songs. <3 Nick Demers
The second EP from Northern Irish singer-songwriter Bea Stewart runs from gentle folk to pillowy pop ballads, all perfectly executed. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 15, 2024
