It rains every time you leave the house,
I’m forecasting storms through your waking hours
Lost the keys to your car that’s sat in your yard
And I don’t know if it’ll even run
Still got your number in my phone,
Still text you when I’m drunk or alone
Your favourite show’s on tv again,
The one we watched when we were stoned
You can make no mistakes and lose,
Maybe nature decided it was done with you
When your name becomes faded words in a card
It’s not death, no, it’s a change of the guard
When you run in a fight that nobody wins
(your show’s on tv again)
Just pray to be the one that gets hurt the least
Front to back, the music is catchy, powerful, rocking, and raw, and go hand-in-hand with Iona's lyrics which could only be described with the same words. Brilliant! tommytulip
Took a few listens to catch me but when it did, whew. Takes me back to the days of 90s emo but with lyricism that goes so far beyond. The breadth of musical styles on display, the breadth of subjects covered, adds up to a towering, humanistic work. Few bands can be so hook-averse yet so packed with creativity, and there's at least one vocal moment on every single track that blows me away. I can't imagine this not winding up being the best punk album of '21. PaintedDogs
at this age reminded me of the naive optimism of high school. dent is more like the college student who tries to remain optimistic in the face of a world that contradicts itself at every turn. fartintheelevator
The Canadian pop-punk band deliver their biggest-sounding album to date, rooted in full-bodied production and cheery nihilism. Bandcamp Album of the Day Apr 5, 2022
Taking cues from Midwestern emo and early ’10 pop punk, this Leeds, UK outfit are full of heart— not to mention hooks. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 21, 2022
