Jess Neville This album is apocalyptic and paranoid in all the best ways. Really approachable punk rock that’s also incredibly melodic and somehow Beach Boys-esque at the same time. Tommy Siegel is one hell of a story teller! Favorite track: Same Shit.
Merced Stratton

Merced Stratton a lot of noises, and then some different noises. some of the noises are words! some aren't. exciting stuff Favorite track: And Today, Nothing.

Downhill 03:21
here are the lyrics! there was light, there was sound it was brighter and louder than now all of brooklyn was in flames but you won't hear me complain most of manhattan was underwater and to be honest I kinda liked it better as an aquarium lined with hedge funds and coffee chains say it again, say it again say it again to yourself that it's all downhill, it's all downhill say it again, say it again say it again to yourself that it's all downhill, it's all downhill from here oh, the hotter, the wetter, the better cut the sleeves off of your old sweaters yeah you won't hear me complain i've got ocean in my veins some official driving a lexus through a ghetto the size of texas he said, "kid, you look bright, but not that tough - so suit up" say it again, say it again say it again to yourself that it's all downhill, it's all downhill say it again, say it again look at yourself in the mirror 'cause it's all downhill, it's all downhill from here the skies will open up, it'll rain agent orange from god and let me begin by telling you all of the good news (let me stop) c'mon kids, gather round look at yourselves in the mirror and repeat after me say it again, say it again say it again to yourself that it's all downhill, it's all downhill say it again, say it again look at yourself in the mirror 'cause it's all downhill, it's all downhill it's all downhill, it's all downhill it's all down

Future Shock 03:23
it's the dawn of an era of no decisions and disposable goods that are made with precision if you're gonna make a run for it, do it quietly you'd make a terrible narc, and i mean that nicely there's no color that can mask the shade of shit you're in i'm afraid of the future shock was it the sound of an ancient machine from under or the grinding of teeth you mistook for thunder? chemicals swimming like a fish inside her can i get you a glass of what passes for water? there's no color that can mask the shade of shit you're in i'm afraid of the future shock

Same Shit 03:11
a lotta talk, and nothing there to back it new boss is sucking on the same tit take my opinion for what it's worth but honestly, i fail to see the difference you have a better reputation than do the shit-heads from the prior generation and listen, i'm no expert, but i do have eyes and honestly, i fail to see the difference i fail to see the difference it's the same shit in a different nightmare it's the same shit, everybody sign here it's the same shit in a different century so excuse me if i fail to see the difference hey, it's a new kind of extortion but this time they swear they're gonna do it on their own terms in a never-ending line of all american white male handshakes i think i fail to see the difference i waited in line for my entire life and when i finally got to the counter the man looked at me and asked if i believed in reincarnation and if so, better luck in the next life i fail to see the difference it's the same shit in a different nightmare it's the same shit, everybody sign here it's the same shit in a different century so excuse me if i fail to see the difference

strange michael hastings in a car crash strange watch it burn and turn to ash don't you think it's peculiar? don't you think it's strange? strange he'd been harboring a secret strange hard to stop his heart from beating out of his chest from all the tension there's no connection, stop paying attention strange found deceased without a reason strange 33 with no conditions to speak of stop paying attention there's no connection, stop paying attention strange an unmarked car was near the impact strange all the windows tinted black don't you think it's peculiar? don't you think it's strange? stop paying attention

they've ironed out the creases of the streets that need policing they've stomped out the heartbeat of a no-wave world and that's their god given right it's their god given right it's their god given right it's their god given right it's their god given right to drop the bomb strange and violent visions in the name of some religion there's speaking in tongues to their stockbrokers and it's their god given right it's their god given right it's their god given right it's their god given right it's their god given right to drop the bomb look: there's people on the highway on-ramp clawing at your door drive, we can make it to the nearest city until they end the war here is another message from your sponsors: keep the kids indoors you've got a god given right you've got a god given right you've got a god given right you've got a god given right to it stop everybody keep composure the drinking water is fine you've got a god given right you've got a god given right you've got a god given right you've got a god given right you've got a god given right to it

canned goods were strewn around the grocery store at midnight it was empty i was counting out some change the sun was gone for seven months and 27 days but i didn't feel anything at all the constellations shifted their positions in the sky into letters of a language i could barely recall spelling "today nothing, and today nothing" and "tomorrow will be nothing at all" it's as if the more i see the further i get and the more i try the harder it is to find so today nothing, yeah today nothing and tomorrow will be nothing at all so today nothing, yeah today nothing and tomorrow will be nothing at all i stopped and rang the buzzer up to your apartment as a formality, because no one was there this city's been a wasteland, there's nobody around and i don't feel anything at all it's as if the more i see the further i get and the more i try the harder it is to find so today nothing, yeah today nothing and tomorrow will be nothing at all so today nothing, yeah today nothing and tomorrow will be nothing at all do you feel anything at all?
