Barricade

Don’t be a kid
At some point you’ll have to choose your side
Carve it in that barricade we pass every night
Say you’re doing fine
Sing it out in a rush, just keep it up with the trees
Tried to write me out
17 hours and then the ink starts to bleed
Dillon’s got a brand new car
But he’s driving home alone
Danny plays with tarot cards
But there’s something that they’ll never show
Woah
This town needs more people like us
People who scream whenever their hearts start fading out
Are you checking in or cashing out
On what you left behind
I left town on your terms so we will start again with mine
Tonight i’ll take the time
To head out on my own
Find a little patch beneath the sky
I’ll Call Home
Just don’t leave
It’s everything
Dillon’s got a brand new car
But he’s driving home alone
Danny plays with tarot cards
But there’s something that they’ll never show
Woah
This town needs more people like us
People who scream whenever their hearts start fading out
You were fading out
You were fading out
You were fading

East Coast

Where you are, are there stars in the sky
Do you look the same in city light
Are there people in your mail asking for time
Or just lists of bills that you fell behind
This much I know
No matter what you say
No matter who's to blame
The pressure's here to stay
I'm not moving to the east coast
I'm not moving to the east coast
I'm not moving to the east coast
You can do that on your own
I want that deposit back,
For all the time we'll never spend
Gearing up for life's fatal attack
Well there's insurance on everything that ends,
So I'm making a withdrawal
This much I know
No matter what you say
No matter who's to blame
The pressure's here to stay
I'm not moving to the east coast
I'm not moving to the east coast
I'm not moving to the east coast
You can do that on your own
I'm not moving to the east coast
I'm not moving to the east coast
I'm not moving to the east coast
You can do that on your own

Earwigs

Who let the earwigs in
Didn’t you hear me say I’m afraid of them
Cause they might crawl into my brain
And make me slowly go insane
Some might say it could be chemical
Well the truth is stranger still
These days I try not to listen to my brain
It doesn’t really seem to work that great
Look at them all rolling on the floor
Trying to catch the light they’re racing for
It’s like nobody told them they’re stuck inside
And they’re gonna stay there for the rest of their lives
Some might say it could be clinical
Well the truth is stranger still
These days I try not to listen to my brain
It doesn’t really seem to work that great
These days I swallow the pills with lemonade
It doesn’t really seem to work that great
Who let the earwigs in
I feel all the tiny legs while the hair stands on my skin
Someday I hope that we can kick them out
For seventeen year substitutes

Breezy

Decoy
Stuck to town like a phone book
Plastic bags
To deploy
One rainy day is not worth mentioning
Toughen up
Your skyline with scruff
Hey kid
When you gonna learn
this happens to everyone
But even crossed minds still think alike sometimes
It’s alright
You won’t mind the wind outside
But if there was something worth saving
You wouldn’t have let your hair grow
And now that your stuck in the corner
You’re looking for another window
Is there something that you should be saying
But you need a word you don’t know
You write it down
Let your stale air out
Stop your spinning head and come back down
Come back down
Come back down
Whoohoo
Someday you will love your breezy days
Whoohoo
Someday you will love your breezy days
But not today
But not today
But not today
But not today
But not today

You told a joke I laughed
And fell asleep in the back of a cab
God was watching over us
If you believe in god and if not
It was just a tourist
It was just a tourist
You tied me to a yellow wall
And shot the breeze with the officer on call
The contest protected you if you believe your score
And if not I guess it's just your outcome
Calico
Don't burn alone
Calico
Don't burn alone
I swallowed a kitchen knife
and burned the clothes I was born to wear
21 was just another blue
If you believe the pain
And if not I guess it's just your color
Calico
Don't burn alone
Calico
Don't burn alone
Calico
Don't burn alone
Calico
Don't burn alone
You told a joke I laughed
And fell asleep in the back of a cab
God was watching over us
If you believe in god and I don't
I guess it's just a driver

Sell Me a Mistake
04:09

Sell me your mistake
I wanna know
How to handle it properly
Send me a mixtape
Explaining all the semicolons in philosophy
We were a sweat lodge armed to the teeth
So you can shoot me a hand sign if you wanna leave
Hug it out for a mile or two
And then you sneak out the window
The second it’s through
Do you realize
That you’re not that bright
I had an eye on you the entire time
When the checks all bounce for merchandise
Sell me your mistake
I wanna know
Where you’re hiding them anyway
Toss me a keepsake
Or something that’ll keep me warm on the freeway
We were a chainsaw raking the leaves
And we were building up muscle in empty alleys
Slug it out for a minute or two
And then they shot you a smile
I guess it was through
Do you realize
That you’re not that bright
I had an eye on you the entire time
When the checks all bounce for merchandise
Do you realize
That you’re not that bright
I had an eye on you the entire time
When the old ideas got crucified

Blood Capsules Bellingham, Washington
Heavy Pop from Bellingham Washington.
"Everyone is in the band"
Blood Capsules recommends:
Waiting To Pass
by Dogs In Cars
Phenomenal lo-fi folk music that is sadly not performed by actual dogs. Still a great record filled with intense emotion and melody.
go to album
Because 1/2 of this band used to be in a band with Seth and we love him and the music he puts out into the world.
go to album
This record is forever the sound of a summer sunset and it is perfect.

9000 Things To See
by Cat Came Back
Cat Came Back’s low-lit pop summons the noir-y feeling of late-night cities. (And consider the challenge in their album notes completed!)

From The Other Side
by Cat Came Back
This Australian duo excel at writing glitchy bedroom pop songs, ornamented with twinkling keys.
go to album
Erudite chamber pop that hearkens back to the elegant and experimental production of the 1960s, swinging from melancholia to playfulness.
