This is the first single from Figure Walking's upcoming full length release Vertical/Horizontal.
lyrics
Downtown’s a strange shade of green tonight
That summer feeling is coming back
The cops are chasing something
That’s really something
The traffic’s bumping, your friends aren’t coming
I’d give you anything
I’ll give you a ride down to Grand Forks
We’ll keep our windows down
I love the wind, the sun on our skin
I love that sound
I love you
I love the smell of late July
We can spend our last dollar on some idiotic trend
Make the same mistake over and over again
We can wait around for our friends
And decide it makes no difference
Can’t shake the sense that bad times are coming
And we’re never going back
The border lined up 50 cars…
All these camouflaged people sent down here from Mars
Sitting in Dreyton thinking… the power of positive drinking
Forget all of our differences
They're all in our heads
When will it end?
Where will it end?
Why will it end?
How will it end?
There are a thousand top-secret silos
Launch codes that some joker knows
In the pretty summer wind, the dirty summer wind
It’s all here and it’s all hidden
But we'll spend our last dollar on some idiotic trend
Make the same mistake over and over again
We can wait around for our friends
And decide it makes no difference

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer

Father John Misty is so good to listen to when I want to relax. My cat used to seem to like the music too, and we would both chill and listen to the FJM vinyls I own. This album on bandcamp was a nice FJM treat. Michelle May
