Hi
I’ve been feeling tongue-tied
Counting every piece of my heart Wishing having fun was an art
Bye
All the games that give you a name
You always have to name what you make And naming is the easiest game
Be good
To me
I know I’m quick to forget Be good
To me
I know I’m quick to forget Be good
To you
I know you’re quick to forget
Bye
Feelings from the low side
I know that you’re piece of my heart I know that love will tear us apart
Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way). s. moxley
Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
These tracks are straightforward and concise, never relying on gauzy metaphors to complicate her declarations of love. Bandcamp Album of the Day Dec 20, 2017
Dreamy, intricate guitar pop from Oakland's Absent City; splashes of accordion, sitar, lap steel, and mandolin add textural richness. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 26, 2020
