TheSlowMusicMovement
Rooted in American music tradition, Califone injects a bit of blue eyed soulful poprock, probably spends far too much time obsessing of obscure sonic details and then gives the yacht rocking vessel a mind expanding psychedelic twist or two just to keep you on your toes.

lyrics
Ghosts are only time machines
They’re just as afraid of you as you are.As you are.
The sex lives of saints and invisible men (fear love. Memorized)
devoured (fear love. Memorized)
Eye like an ox/ lost it in the promised land /soul like a pocket calculator /
trying on some new names/ Sunday Sunday/ found my heart. Found my heart
Your fingerprints found all over the scene /
Hide in the dark while your avatar preens
It’s a god given compulsion // devoured
Erasing the stars/ flesh and fell (fear love. Memorized)
Primal deny deny fear love (fear love. Memorized)
Eye like an ox/ lost it in the promised land /soul like a pocket calculator /
trying on some new names/ Sunday Sunday/ found my heart. Found my heart
Sunday Sunday/ found my heart. Found my heart
Eye like an ox/ lost it in the promised land /soul like a pocket calculator /
trying on some new names/ Sunday Sunday/ found my heart. Found my heart
((flesh and fell / in an ox eye / when you hold me / the reflection burns / Bela Tarr / in an ox eye / time stops))
They’re just as afraid of you as you are.As you are.
The sex lives of saints and invisible men (fear love. Memorized)
devoured (fear love. Memorized)
Eye like an ox/ lost it in the promised land /soul like a pocket calculator /
trying on some new names/ Sunday Sunday/ found my heart. Found my heart
Your fingerprints found all over the scene /
Hide in the dark while your avatar preens
It’s a god given compulsion // devoured
Erasing the stars/ flesh and fell (fear love. Memorized)
Primal deny deny fear love (fear love. Memorized)
Eye like an ox/ lost it in the promised land /soul like a pocket calculator /
trying on some new names/ Sunday Sunday/ found my heart. Found my heart
Sunday Sunday/ found my heart. Found my heart
Eye like an ox/ lost it in the promised land /soul like a pocket calculator /
trying on some new names/ Sunday Sunday/ found my heart. Found my heart
((flesh and fell / in an ox eye / when you hold me / the reflection burns / Bela Tarr / in an ox eye / time stops))
