you're a storm cloud electric dynamo
soaked in static and shinin the shadebow
whippin wild, blowin the dark force
you gotta crash so you can throw bolts
you're collapsing from inside out ya
let it all hang out hang out
shuffleboard, pinball, shoot pool
you gotta shine so you can stay cool
you are a star you know you are
you're magnetar what a star you are
kick ass karate kids
and your skateboard moms
intergenerational radness
intergenerational radness
you are a star you know you are
you're magnetar what a star you are

Old Man

old man grey not gold not black
not light his labels are peeling and cracked
wind of a dead star blew him all around
now he's rolling back into the ground
whoa
he named the universe after himself
kept it all up in a box on a shelf
magnetar wiped all the drives and cards
all of that stuff went up to the stars
whoa
met an old man* alas now he's dead
old light shooting out of the top of his head
told the old man what I had seen
he told me "my life's a dream"
whoa
* steve lacy, r.i.p.

don't care what the neighbors say

Pretty Machete

|

|
you'd better get ready
she's a pretty machete
she'll take you down the wrong road
roll you for your own gold
she's a pearl you're a diver
and you'll never survive her
she'll bleed you til you run dry
and whip you with your own hide
and you want her so badly
cause she knows you love her madly
you're a slave to the master
destined for disaster
and you always take her phone calls
cause she's got you by your own balls
she's gonna take you down to frown town
and drown you in your own sound
there's a peace in what she says

The Dirty Future
04:09
|
|||
|
a cartful of clouds is rolling down
down to the edges of the edge of your town
dumped in a landfill of plastic and love
beaten and blown by the power above
going to see you in the dirty future
we're all going to the dirty future
going to meet you in the dirty future
we're all going to the dirty future
all of your fevers and all of your dreams
never turned out to be what they seemed
you lay out a suit and you put on a tie
got it all picked out for the day that you're going to die
going to see you in the dirty future
we're all going to the dirty future
going to meet you in the dirty future
we're all going to the dirty future

Wolf + Whippoorwill
06:19
|
|||
|
got lost in a mountain meadow
and the stars are a shotgun spray
now I'm drifting across the ocean
seem to have lost my way
hear the wolf and the whippoorwill
listen to the wolf, the wolf and the whippoorwill
then I woke up under a park bench
hot static and a purple hand
at the edge of a midnight shoreline
the darkness swallowed the sand

If you like OLD LIGHT, you may also like:
supported by 4 fans who also own “THE DIRTY FUTURE”
Entire album is excellent. As is the rest of the catalog. Go back to 1970...take the Dead and Floyd and roll them up. Yet completely different. Just plain old GOOD MUSIC.

As Far As Gardens Go
by Carroll
Spacious, psych-tinged indie rock from Philly; painting in blurry watercolors (but not without percussive headiness).
go to album
Honeyed psych-pop harmonies abound on “Five Suns,” threaded through woozy organs and razor-sharp guitars.
go to album
This Olympia, WA artist swings from gutsy hard rock to synthy experimentalism, delivering both with gusto.
go to album
Del fuoco
by Threestepstotheocean
Threestepstotheocean, from Milan, Italy, infuse their instrumentals with a rich blend of metal, post punk, and psychedelic pop.
go to album
The Arizona band do right by post-hardcore on their immersive new LP, leavening untempered breakdowns with carefully-measured catharsis.
