"You watched me like a 10 car highway wreck with detached, vulgar curiosity.
This looking down at the tops of the hats of us passers-by from your 7th story balcony...
from such a height you missed the creatures too small for sight..."

WOOOOF, those are some hard lyrics. I'd never heard any other #mewithoutyou songs, so the change in style from the other one really took me by surprise.

Took me a while to realize that the January 1979 "crash" was referring to his birth.

He's really hitting the theodicy note hard in this one.

"The Beetle King on a Coconut Estate" is a song that brings me to tears every time I hear it. It's so intense.

Figured this was the perfect time to post this one.

mewithoutYou is a band I've had in regular rotation for about a year. And just in the last couple of days, I finally listened to Ten Stories and... geez, what rock have I been under?! This is some of their best work period!

Didn't even know this released!
Daniel Pishock (former bassist of mewithoutYou) wrote a blog talking about the making of the A To B Life demos and his time in the band. I highly recommend giving it a read!
(And listening to the demos.)

the [A→B] LIFE (demos) & Other Tales - Daniel Pishock - Medium

So…I have no idea where to begin this post? However, the time and season feel very fitting. Please note, this is a simple story from one person’s perspective that is first and foremost composed to…

mewithoutYou is extremely underrated! Their material is some of the most uniquely delivered with their instrumentals (whether they go heavy, softer, or a blend of both) and Aaron Weiss' poetic and potent lyrics. It's terrific music, period!

January 1979

Today #Bandcamp is donating it's profits to MusiCares.

I went thru my neverending list of music to check out, and picked:
- a couple of Fedi musicians: @Dace who I had discovered at #TheIndieBeat, and @melondruie who appeared on #NWICBW3 along with me,
- the missing pieces of my #TheNotwist collection,
- an album by #mewithoutYou, a band that I just discovered by a total coincidence,
- and last but not least, the new album by my favourite band #Motorpsycho (pre-order)

Today's self-care is an impromptu full listen-through of my fave band's discography. This is a perfect song, from their "[untitled] e.p." (2018).
