lyrics

I salute the warriors of the old world
They know their flags are being taken down
So resolute as they make their last stand
A kamikaze in the comments section

My thoughts and prayers
Go with the warriors of the old world
I light a candle for the male ghostbuster
I spent my last Jackson 20
On a tiny violin and jar full of honey
Cause it never goes bad
Unlike the warriors of the old world

Let’s praise the trolls who guard the bridge to the new world
Who guard the door to the treehouse
Let’s applaud the boys who keep the girls out

I salute the warriors of the old world
As they bite down on their cyanide capsules
It might stink for a while
But a true warrior never gets taken alive
I’m making funeral plans for the warriors of the old world

One of our new favorite Chicago bands. Tight, melodic, mathy, emo adjacent indie. Reminds me a bit of a brighter version of Women. Dream Version

Idle Ray
by Idle Ray

Classic, tuneful, and reflective indie rock from SE Michigan's Fred Thomas. Our new song N.R.E. can only hope to recreate the summer bike riding vibe of Fred at his poppiest. Dream Version
