Try not to cry, tonight I'm just too manic
Sleeping with both eyes open in a state of panic
The lights are filling in, I'm reeling
And I'm living for this:
One stick, I feel sick but I'm flying
Don't pull me down.
Shuttering blinds and the light-like daggers
Can't think, can't sleep but I can feel
I need another sigh of relief
To save me from the swells
And swaying of my broken shell-
On fire, cut some slack
Last night, just a setback
Without shame, no shame
Maybe we're insane, but we're happy
Oh fuck it, I can't quit.
One stick, I feel sick but I'm flying
Don't pull me down.

Truly oddball pop from Sharif Ali combines smooth synths, groovy electric piano, and Karoke-style crooning into a strangely catchy whole. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 5, 2020
Gnarly punk rock from the Philadelphia duo is unhinged in the best way, an in-the-red sonic assault a la Motorhead/Stooges. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 9, 2024
