A love song for a love that once burned intense from across the Bass Strait, written about two weeks before what proved to be a short-lived move to Hobart to be together.
lyrics
It's morning inside of this mess
Of infrastructure and ivory towers
Surrounding the broken and dispossessed
And all this destruction of such sacred things
Nature displaced and defaced and encased
While they still have the nerve to call it God's creation
And I hear your voice in so much detail
From so many kilometres away
Darling, there's not a day
That I'm not counting hours and remembering your face
And if I could
I'd run to you
Or at least I'd run till my lungs gave out
Till my head was pounding or my heart rate stopped
But as it is I'm waiting fifteen more days
Cos you're the Bass Strait and a stateline away
And my love, you're restless
For you this world is too small
Someday you'll see it all
Yeah we'll see buildings rise and fall
We'll struggle to make up our minds as to whether we miss em when they're gone
As you take my hand
I know that we don't need that shit anyway
All thoughts are but distractions from what is and ought to be
And by the same token, there is hope in everything
So leave behind these worldly problems
We can take flight, there's only water
And earth, wind and fire to help and to hinder us
Tinderbox hearts to light a spark in this wilderness
Tinderbox hearts, tinderbox minds, tinderbox souls
Joined together by some force of nature
Some unknown chemistry
Some twist of luck
And if I could I'd run to you
Or at least I'd run till my lungs gave out
Till my head was pounding and my heart rate stopped
But as it is I'm waiting fifteen more days
Cos you're the Bass Strait and a stateline away
Tinderbox eyes, tinderbox minds
TInderbox souls, tinderbox hearts
TInderbox skin, tinderbox bones
Tinderbox flesh, we'll ignite and explode
We're untouchable
With you I need no notion of home
Probably the only release to ever turn 'Launcestonian' into a genre. BrodyGreg is my co-Sausage Roll Bandit and makes good raw honest music that'll guarantee an enriching Sunday worship. Jude Joseph
This is the 3-track EP that heralded to the global folk punk scene Chris Burrows' return. I'm not on any of the current releases, but I play in this band now and new tunes are slowly on their way. Jude Joseph
Another 3-track EP that sees local Victorian folk punks the Dead Peasants take to a whole new level of quality in their sound production and bodes incredibly well for their future releases. Jude Joseph
Comme d'habitude, j'ai bien du mal à choisir une "favorite track" avec ce groupe de Trashgrass qui excelle dans son domaine.
Mais là, j'ai réussi à me décider finalement. XD EklektikTrip
fell into Days n' Daze when I was travelling, thanks to some of my road dogs. I don't have that freedom anymore but I feel a piece of it Everytime I listen to their music. love y'all! thefool309
Catchy, caustic goodness: straight-shooting hardcore clashes with boisterous blues rock on the debut from Austin outfit Drip-Fed. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 14, 2021
