Strange New Breed
03:03

The girls are a long machine
They pound a metallic beach
Wave their electric hair
And take no prisoners
This half-life lost hold on me
No control, no gravity
Out of the void and into the deep
We’re a strange new breed
The boys are synchronized
They chase the liquid lines
Cut arcs in neon light
Like they are hypnotized
The kids orbit casually
around the bonfire beat
In phase harmonically
With the cosmic scene

Hell's Kitchen Sink

Life is not for living, boy, there’s always less of us than there are dead, they said
And hell is not a place you go it’s all the stuff you’ve got inside your head instead
Your mind will be a battlefield if you don’t man your post
This ain’t a game that you’ve been playing, kid
Murder by numbers and adding up the bones
Sounds more poetic than it is
So let’s go my ally, comrade, friend
As we roam the long goodbye
Cause if life is just our bitter end
What a wonderful way to die
Better get your ass in gear, you might not last another year my sweet
And hell might have a kitchen but I’d bet a billion you can’t stand the heat
Your courage has abandoned you, you’re giving up the ghost
Died the death a thousand cowards do
A soldier’s life is fun until the bombs start to explode
You might not want to hear that, but it’s true
Our minds could use some breaking down
Like Jesus dropping acid, Holy Wow!
The future-past beginning now

Traffic

“Don’t go,” she said and sighed, “until you’ve paid the price.”
“I’m paid for life,” said I. And then we said goodbye
We are traffic, we all are traffic
A wise man said, “Recall, when you start to doubt it all—
Like the link that makes the chain, like the drop that makes the rain,
Like the blood in your veins—we are all the same.”

Black and White

I found a photo of you
Was black and white, black and white
your edges were all faded in the sun
I’ve been lost since you’ve been gone
Your soft skeleton by me
While I listen to "RIP"
And I’ll drag up all the pain
At least I’ll feel something again
Even when your mind was dark and gray
You found your way
I wanna cry I wanna fight
As your colors bleed to light
I found a photo of you
Black and white, black and white
I didn’t wanna wait too long
It’s been hell since you’ve been gone
Did you feel it, did you forget
Did you think that I left?
Did you feel me, did you care
Did you know, that I was there?
Did you feel it, did you forget
Were you scared that I left?
Did you feel me, did you care
Did you know, that I was there?

Rockville

I was born in Rockville,
Came in on the train last night, midnight ride
All the blooms a blur
I was born in Rockville,
Walked along the marble stairs, I sold my cares
For pennies on the dollar
And it goes on like forever
And it feels like we’re together
Let it go
I was born in Rockville,
Standing by the statues tall, long black wall
All the names around it
I was born in Rockville,
Never thought I’d go back when REM
Told me not to do it
And it goes on like forever
And it feels like we’re together
Let it go

Sub Lights New York, New York
The New York City duo Sub Lights launched their indie electronic psych-pop project out of the bedroom and onto the stage in the fall of 2021. After a lot of late nights, early mornings, variously enhanced psychic explorations, along with heavy doses of political consciousness, “Medicine,” emerged as a definitive musical statement—equal parts song-driven and sonically expansive. ... more
