Complicated Constitution

I'm starting to believe in revolution
Not complicated Constitutions
Where you can win, and also lose
A voice cries out "leave me alone"
But he was the first one throwing stones
So try to avoid, watching this evening's News
Let's carry it to the other side
I wanna find a place where they can't hide
A guy on TV's spewing hate
Desperate for a respite we demonstrate
Feels like we're dreaming even now
We mark off days one at a time
November Tuesday - get in line
She will PERSIST this time around
Let's carry it to the other side
I wanna find a place where they can't hide
One more song - nice and loud
We can sing along - so proud
We'll remember this one day
One more song - forget the past
Looking for something to last
We'll be free again someday
I just can't forgive your failings
You'll soon be leaving, I'm not complaining
We search for the right words to say...
The sun is gonna shine, a brand new day
Sweep you aside and, by the way
You're FIRED - now! Go! Away!
Let's carry it to the other side
I wanna find a place where they can't hide
One more song - nice and loud
We can sing along - so proud
We'll remember this one day
One more song - forget the past
Looking for something to last
We'll be free again someday

Skate Sharpener

If you wanna stay / on top of your blades
There's a guy we know / and we, gave him a name
He's got a basement rig - he does it for the kids
And when things get dull / you have to go
To the Skate Sharpener
He wore #4 / just like Bobby Orr
Til he tore up his knee / back in '93
So when you're skating up and down the ice
Making parents proud
Put the puck in the back of the net
We'll be screaming loud -
For the Skate Sharpener
Once at his house / you'll wanna stay later
Cause he's also got a kegerator
Meet him at the bar / he's never too far
He'll sharpen your skate while you hydrate
He's got calipers to calibrate
Precise measurements for every skate
Cross grinds and hollow cuts
Hockey dad and a... hockey nut!
He's the Skate Sharpener

Home-produced, sun-warped indie rock with wry wit and charming jangle from New Mexico's Javier Romero.

Not Getting What You Want, One Step at a Time

Getting some serious Dean Wareham vibes from this Texas bedroom project that’s anything but lo-fi.
go to album
South Philly band Grocer has all the sly disaffection of classic ’90s indie rock in their wonderfully unruly songs.

A slow drip of Tropicália-infused psychedelia from New Orleans rock outfit Blue Basin: balmy one moment, aggressive the next.
go to album
Certified Ailments

Laid-back yet restless indie rock is heavy on the catchy melodies and unexpected musical choices that elevate the simplicity of the tunes.
