Guitar rock with punk energy and bar-band melodicism, with tough female vocals. Hard-driving stuff that probably sounds best with beers and cigarette smoke. Lyrics include the normal break-up themes but get weirdly introspective sometimes (especially the last track); you get the feeling songwriter Leah Archibald has been around a while and possibly has a couple kids. Also note the obsession with Buffalo, N.Y. (1,6,10). 1- Fast and catchy, minor key. "Stuck in my hometown like Pete Best" 3- Midtempo, high energy 4- Mid/fast, a bit poppy 5- Mid/fast, with country twang 6- Fast, kind of sweet (about a road trip with the kids) 8- Fast and punkish, w/slightly more girly-sounding vocal 11- Rolling midtempo 12- Fast and angry, but kinda dopey (about an argument with an apartment neighbor) 13- Fast, with sincerely nostalgic lyrics about attending the Fireman's Fair | ||
