lyrics
Thursday’s the new Sunday
Cuz all I wanna do
Is lay around with you
Call me up honey
This dirty old city
It’ll grind us to the bone
And all I seem to wanna do
Is lay around
Bad news at your doorstep
It’ll seep into the seams
If you don’t keep your head on
Then you might start to believe it
We can drown in the same drop
Or keep on running like a stream
But all I wanna do
Is hang around
The chorus dies by attrition (until)
And every sound and opinion (recedes)
And the noise it falls to oblivion (until)
Until it’s just you and me
Got gum on your shoes now
But it don’t mean a thing
I’ve got my neon sign on
I’m on your mystic hotline
Thursday’s the new Sunday
And even Wednesday afternoon
Cuz all I seem to wanna do
Is lay around

The Reds, Pinks & Purples invoke a very particular moment of the post-C86/Sarah Records outpost of “college rock” before grunge became the de facto form of “alt rock”. This is pop music like they don’t really make it anymore: Catchy, gloomy, literate, jangly, artsy, occasionally frivolous… like some half-remembered video from the Dave Kendall-era of 120 Minutes.

A catchy jangle-rock concept album from the Chicago band, inspired by one of the most unbelievable jailbreaks of the 21st century so far. Ba...ndcamp New & Notable Apr 13, 2022

This isn’t a record review. Or maybe it is. But I fell asleep while listening to this album and had a wonderful dream: I was riding my bike through a fictional version of the city where I was born. You know what I mean- familiar, but strangely new? I rode through predawn darkness. The sun began to rise and made the city glow. Two buildings stood out, a liquor store and a pasta factory. I woke up in a happy mood and carried that feeling throughout the day. Joe
