i don’t mind it i know i’m yr ugliest friend

i’ll be who you want & then you’ll luv me again

it’s the end of another year

and all u are is yr father’s violence

and yr mother’s fears

and u won’t be happy

and it won’t get better

and you just love heroin

new song i recorded called “but right now we’re alive & well & life’s too strange & beautiful to end" 

we’re standing in the doorway & you hope they let us in if u say yr sick enough they’ll give u medicine, u say yr hearin’ angels but i think it’s only sirens in the wind x2, you’ll take back what they borrowed  & you’ll be yrself tomorrow oh again you said you couldn’t stand it makin’ promises to bandits with yr friends, but right now we’re alive & well & life’s too strange & beautiful to end & me i got more lies to tell but hopefully i might get better soon

this song is still so fucking amazing

contron:

yr lookin’ nervous to them

would you surface again?

i wanna see yr face one last time

in case i don’t get another chance

i wanna lay inside yr bed

i wanna stay inside yr head

like a terrible song you can’t forget

i’m so glad i came home today

(broken bones & broken hearts please open a window & let some light in)

Contron - Relax, Get Scared

I got the email about this record last night, and was pretty sure that I knew what newspeedwayboogie would be posting this morning. It sounds like this may be the last one for a while, and that makes me kind of sad.

As a borderline obsessive Mountain Goats fan it’s easy for me to call out the conceptual overlap between Contron’s recordings and Darnielle’s RX-FT500 era, but that’s not why I love Contron’s music. It’s not the lofi that makes it what it is, but the songs.

Contron’s songs aren’t like Mountain Goats songs; they are not narratives, but compact and fascinating moments. As short as they are, each one feels to me like it’s obsessively unpacking something even smaller.

Thanks, Contron. Hope to hear from you again.
