Crystalline 04:03
What a lightning holiday Here’s a photo of last night Drunk boys, MDMA Your shirt is open Faces flushed with pink A button’s broken We’re crystalline We spoke to the night Saw distant stars A million lights Spin around in my mind Spin around in my mind You can mix osmanthus With rubber cement It’s a strong reaction It’s an early warning There’s a sensitive machine For mistakes it lights up One more drink and then we're done One more hour and we're done for the night

Perfect Love 04:08
You and I We both like Little stage with a few mics Pretty soon yeah I hope they’ll hear us loud You and I We get high on the bright lights And the big love It's not life if you never fuck around But the closest we'd ever go To closing up this travelling show Is for a perfect love I've heard it's really lush When honey brings the pretty little birds to ecstasy They sing the sweetest little love songs The birds never get it wrong You and I There are times We lie down in a small space It feels good just to block out all the sound And the lengths to which we would go For you the stage me the radio Is for a perfect love... We search their faces for signs I guess that's just ill advised The crowd can wait I’m caught up in your perfect love I've heard it's really lush When honey brings the pretty little birds to ecstasy They sing the sweetest little love songs The birds never get it wrong The birds never get it wrong The birds never get it wrong The pretty little birds never get it wrong

about

Crystalline was recorded in early 2015. Around the same time we were also cleaved in two: our lineup went from six to three in the space of a few days. We are currently developing a live show with a bevy of material that builds upon the space and energy of the record.
