I'm from Los Angeles, but don't think of bronzed guys skating around and extolling the infinite joys of the sun, with low-rise jeans and Hawaiian shirts. They're a trio. Pale, disheveled, and always dressed in black. They seem to never leave their damp rooms and their constant paranoia. They have the haunted look of too many sleepless nights and too many cigarettes.

They play a kind of dark garage, a little sick, called 'shoegazer'. Songs that meld into the ears, sick if not incomprehensible lyrics, all driven by ringing guitars, dominant bass, and the power of despair.

In their first album, they had fun channeling all their melancholy and a good dose of cursed love, but in this one they experiment with distorted guitars and a baggage of existential doubts. The third album is on the way. Who knows... maybe they've decided to come out of the basement and get a tan, but with all my heart I hope not.

"I don't feel at home in this generation
The ones without a need they ain't got a reason
I've been feeling alone in this generation

I've had a realization
No one really listens nothing's really there
I'm choosing sides
I'm keeping up with you and your invasion eyes
You got the world in a coma
You put the knife in our back and no one even cares

I've been feeling alone in this generation
I ain't found the need I ain't found the reason
I got nowhere to go in this generation

You're ready to take them on
You're ready to take them on
You're ready to take it
I've had a realization

Don't tell me to listen nothing's ever there
I'm choosing sides
I'm keeping up with you and your invasion eyes
You got the world in a coma and the trick bag
You put the knife in our back and no one even cares

I think I've had enough of this generation

Ain't you bad enough
I think I had enough of this generation
The ones without a need they ain't got a reason
I don't feel at home in this generation

You're ready to take them on
You're ready to take them on
You're ready to take it

I've had a realization
No one really listens nothing's really there
I'm choosing sides
I'm keeping up with you and your invasion eyes
You got the world in a coma
You put the knife in our back and no one even cares

Ain't you had enough
I've had enough

Don't fuck with me
Don't fuck with me
Don't fuck with me
Don't fuck with me

09   And I'm Aching (03:52)

I can't wait for long my darling all I have to keep me strong
All I have will go, all I have will go
And I move on, and I move on
And I am aching, and I'm aching

I can't wait for long I'm sorry, all I have has left me gone
I can't stay for long I'm sorry, all that's left kept me strong
And I move on, and I move on
And I am aching, and I'm aching
And I move on

10   Suddenly (04:56)

I am so high
I can't get back
I'm waiting
For what comes next
You can't live
This life for me
But I can't, you have control
I can't last
Tonight turns to day
I can't find
The words to say
It all stops
When kingdom comes
I can't ?????
Suddenly
I was free
You left me without anything
Suddenly
I was free
You shot me in front of everything
Now your all I need
Blue shadows behind your eyes
I wonder who you disguise
Through windows behind the sky
I wonder who you will find
I'm so tired
I can't get back
I'm walking to still come back
With something that I have loved
Well I can't, you have control
Suddenly
I was free
You left me without anything
Suddenly
I was free
You shot me in front of everything
Now your all I see
Blue shadows behind your eyes
I wonder who you disguise
Through windows behind the sky
I wonder who you will find

 The sound is the same, the grit is superior, the choruses are memorable - that’s what rock ’n’ roll is made of.

 I don’t know, Psychocandy. This album will sell a lot, and for once it’s right that way.

 If monotony had the appearance of a woman in heat, she would definitely have relations with BRMC.

 Despite all the advertising they have, there is better in Italy, just look around.
