Not sure who had more fun, them whipping it out live on KEXP with the one and only Kevin Cole, or me couch dancing with my wine. Either way just fun.

Class ...this is what new music should sound like, their album is so good, best debut in years and their better live :-)

[JamesHunterRoss]

Damn that is a good sound! More please!

Do you ever help the helpless?
Do you give them any time?
Do you ever bully your conscience?
And detach from your mind
Do you ever need the needy?
Do they ever tug on your heart?
Do you determine the person in question is simply worlds apart?

Do you ever wishful to the wishful?
Do you ever get what you need?
Or do you detach from necessity and apply the act of greed?
Do you ever dream with the dreamers?
Do you ever weaken the weak?
Do you overuse the technique of not thinking before you speak?

You say it's going forwards
But I feel it flowing backward
s
In a time of such injustice
How can you not want to be heard?
And I'm trying to exist
In a momentary cyst
And I'm trying to exist
In a momentary cyst
It's only friction
It's only friction
It's only friction
It's only friction

And do you ever worry the worried?
Do you ever want to be heard?
Do you motivate the motion of achieving what you don't deserve?
Do you consume the consumer?
Do you listen to the song?
Do you understand the difference between what is right and what is wrong?

You say it's going forwards
But I feel it flowing backward
s
In a time of such injustice
How can you not want to be heard?
And I'm trying to exist
In a momentary cyst
And I'm trying to exist
In a momentary cyst
It's only friction
It's only friction
It's only friction
It's only friction

Do you ever get what you want, dear?
Do you ever get what you need?
Do you ever get what you want, dear?

Holy fuck, this is the future of punk rock. See em now because it's gonna be $50+ a ticket in a few years. Carry the torch motherfuckers! Props up up up!

[TheAndradeCS]

How old are these guys? They look like teenagers.

[IuganProduction]

Really sounds like Garbage's "Stupid Girl". But fuck, shame are awesome.

[BagBoy]

Sounds like Kinky Afro on 45 rather then 33.3.
