lyrics
Lie in the Gutter, stare at the stars
Garlic and Butter, Venus and Mars
This moment is fleeting, your body is leaving
Just kiss me right here as I am
The world is defeating, but I’m busy reading
The patterns, the constellation
Mind in the gutter, dreams down the drain
Clean up the clutter, before it rains
You’re taking a beating, you’re desperately needing
A moment of cosmic relief
All we discover, look out there with me
Lie in the Gutter, stare at the stars
Millions of light years, all of them ours
A fountain of wisdom, a kink in the system
Essential to all our belief
Lie in the gutter, and stare up there with me

Joyous scary sunny vertigo; guitar, synths, male/female vocals. Listening lifts me up. I hear a pinch of shoegazing a la Medicine, Swirlies, but also other sounds - Stereolab, Octopus Project. I danced to several songs. IlsaJ

I'd never heard of these guys before I saw them open for The Decemberists in Atlanta this past weekend, but I was hooked from those first driving notes of "Making Noise..." and by the time they were three songs in, I weirdly had one foot in 1993 again with the other squarely here in 2024. This album is everything you want it to be, with some bonuses. Hard to pick an actual favorite track, but "The Window" does make me choke up a little bit, and "It's Alive!" is a consistent earworm.
