The biggest & brightest of shows
The lengths to which people go
To go proving it all to the world
Big shows were never for me
I never say what I mean
& I’ve always been that way
Since I was still me
"On My Way" too
I never yelled out from the roof
or called out for ears in the room
& I hoped that neither would you
but just let me end this game
& just let me say it this way
I’m more sure of us everyday
& now it’s time
To say it all aloud
Saying out loud
The things that I had thought for years
I wouldn't want a change
I wouldn't change
I want a little house & rings
Lived in denial of me
trained years so I wouldn’t see
The cold shell that I came to be
But armor it lasts so long
Finally starting to thaw
So I'm writing one honest song
& now it’s time
To live is to fail and react
To learn to change & adapt
from mistakes that we can amass
Well I should be good by now
Should but i'm not somehow
I promise I’ll figure it out
& now it’s time

Riding the line between indie pop and psychedelic folk, the songs on the latest from The Madeleines are as gorgeous as they are mysterious. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 22, 2022
The Arizona band do right by post-hardcore on their immersive new LP, leavening untempered breakdowns with carefully-measured catharsis. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 20, 2018
