They’ll try to tell us,
Uh-uh, I don’t need to know.
These streets are riled in
A plastic noise
They’ll try to destroy
The lines we made when we cut our teeth
I still see,
Our blood run tonight,
Winding through the streets
Finding me in your eyes
And as we rise,
Like a pale moon out
I see,
Winter’s in the sinners,
The kids don’t mean a thing
They face the earth and go digging in
They try to tell us
Uh-uh I don’t need to know.
Nu-uh, I don’t need to know.
We were hung on a wire
Orbiting wildly
Looking for love from above
As if love alone could be enough
And the two of us,
You and me,
Turning on the stairs
Like dancers
Falling,
Coming down heavy on you.
But,
When we wane,
In sunlight louder than us,
It’s just enough to know
You’re all I need to know.
Uh huh,
You’re all I need to know.

Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über.

On their 10th record, the Glasgow-based group serves up more wonderfully menacing, gothy synthpop, perfect for dungeon dancing. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 19, 2023
