PEDRO THE LION
Havasu
2022 U.S. pressing
Transparent Peach vinyl

I’ve been a longtime admirer of David Bazan’s songwriting all these years. I got into Pedro The Lion very early, starting with Winners Never Quit, and becoming FULLY devoted with Control.

Although the personnel has changed drastically over the years, the quality of music hasn’t. His songwriting has only grown more interesting over the years, and Havasu is no exception.

These are the songs of a dude who’s been around, and seen it all. There’s a wisdom not just in his words, but you can actually hear it in his voice.

A very moody, but wonderful latter-day PTL album.

“First Drum Set” is classic Pedro The Lion, man.

Ignore the Apple Music link this time and check the text for a link to a YT of the song as it's not actually in Apple Music.

Brandon Jones's Crucial Track for May 26, 2025

The song Let Down by Pedro the Lion

God Wants Humans

In the song “Hard To Be” off his revelatory album Curse Your Branches, David Bazan re-envisions the Western view of the Fall narrative....

Damn, listening to #DavidBazan and then #PedroTheLion, I noticed his current touring dates in Europe and find out he was in Amsterdam yesterday. Only date in our country. :(
You Can Sound Like Yourself : David Bazan on Pedro the Lion's Modesto : Aquarium Drunkard

Nothing is simple. Self-knowlege is won painfully, insight by insight, song by song. On his latest album under the Pedro the Lion banner, Santa Cruz, songwriter David Bazan examines the complications of family, faith, and the past—and how it informs the present moment.

This must be one of my favourite albums, like several others from Bazan. Also excellent while working on code, listening to the lyrics.

Fuck it, I'll just put it on repeat for now.

Next up on It's So Cold I'm Really Regretting Ordering Bagels to Be Delivered Today Because Now I'll Have To Open The Door is Cold Beer and Cigarettes from #DavidBazan. I once told him he's part of the mythology of my and @MetalheadDana's relationship, partly because his was the first album Dana lent me when we met, and we went to his show the night we got legally married. Okay, momentary thaw again.

I rode off and down the road
Somehow I never went back home"
