This can best be described as a cover of a song from my old band The New Death Show. The arrangement came to me one day while messing about on guitar and I just went with it, recording each part as it came to me. If you’re familiar with the original version you’ll recognize how vastly different it is from Death Show’s. And actually, now that I think about it, it’s vastly different from everything I’m doing right now…
lyrics
I swear when that tree fell on me
I thought it would hurt more than it did
And everyone around me
Stood in shock and said, "He should be dead."
Granted I did feel a little light-headed
Like I was standing above everybody else
The Graze is easily my favorite band in Seattle. Louis O'Callahan's writing style is right up my alley, it doesn't do him justice to say but he could be Kurt Cobain and Jeff Mangum's bastard child. The Way It Is
My Seattle friends Levi and Casey are two of the most talented musicians I know. Check out this wonderful album written and recorded in one weekend... The Way It Is
Seattle upstarts thread their surging power-pop with wistful nostalgia and softly-felt despair, exuding empathy as well as energy. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 24, 2019
