lyrics

Be Choosy (When You Choose Your Lover)

some people fall in love so easily
you see in others what you want to see
and when they stray from you you're none the wiser
you should have seen it in their eyes

so be choosy when you choose your lover
make sure you love 'em over any other
and if in time you start to doubt 'em then
cut 'em loose so you can choose again

some lovers snare you in a web of lies
some lovers pounce and catch you by surprise
some lovers build you up then tear you down
and some are just too tightly wound

so be picky when you pick your lover
make sure you love 'em over any other
and if in time you start to doubt 'em then
cut 'em loose so you can choose again

you'd better know just what you're getting into
or you'll regret it on your wedding night
the guests are gone
you sealed the deal
you know deep down they're not the one for you

if you can tell that she's a femme fatale
you'd better stay away from that old gal
and he may love you but he'll steer you wrong
so listen closely to this song
and be discriminating when you're dating
make sure that they're the one you should be
mating with
and if in time you start to doubt 'em then
cut 'em loose so you can choose again
and if in time you start to doubt 'em then
cut 'em lose so you can pick again
and if in time you start to doubt 'em then
let 'em go

I don't know how to describe the feeling I get from listening to this album besides a sense of relief, if you catch my drift. Besides feelings, musicianship is all spades, great hooks/grooves that expand into solid forms. Overall 9.5/10, thank you Silver Scrolls/Three Lobed Recordings. FraterOiram

Bright gray sheets of roaring and shimmering guitar held aloft by a delicate web of percussion. Post-rock, shoegaze, psych- rock and hints of bluesy folk, all audible and enmeshed. IlsaJ
