I like my coffee with a little bit of raindrop
I herd my children away until the rain stops
They're trying to drive us away from our home
We put wheels on the bottom of our house last night
Little Johnny, spreading warpaint, looking for a fight
They're trying to drive us away from our home
Hide away
Better soon then never
Our picks and our tenderloins
Frost bitten fiery weather
Better hide away
Valley family
Sun spot, son, stop, the man is here for what is his
Your new family can raise you righter up than this
They're trying to drive us away from our home
Send word, send note, a different address every day
By crow, by blow, by any other faster way
They're trying to drive us away from our home.

Phil makes sometimes quiet, sometimes ear shattering, always pretty and dense records and this one is no different. As big as all outdoors and as small as a small wooden shack, as to be expected. al Riggs
Dance to this all night and then the morning and then the afternoon until your legs turn to noodles or the landlord starts a-knocking on your floor/their ceiling with a broom. Whichever happens first. al Riggs
Landlady live is a force of nature, on record they are just as gorgeous and anxious as they are in the Flesh World. More Nervous Energy for those who like tremendous drumming and proper earworms. al Riggs
The wonderfully understated folk songs on the new EP from Emma Geiger recall the best of The Softies and early Mary Lou Lord. Bandcamp New & Notable May 9, 2022
