brother built a rocket
he made it out of wood
could never make it fly straight
he never understood
so he smashed it into pieces
and went into his room
kissed the empty pop can
and would up on the moon
i miss the way you used to make me laugh
beat up my friends and knock them to the grass
now when i think about it makes me sad
sisters got a secret
she's never gonna tell
tattood it in her note book
kept it on the shelf
til she tore it into pieces
when he broke her heart
at least she took me with her
to vandalize his car
i miss the way you used to make me laugh
call me the meanest names and never take it back
now when i think about it makes me sad
Daily focus-training coupled with strong work ethics pointed toward making life more bearable for others, could turn around this age for the better. This album is beautiful. A force for good. CHOSEN
A bite-size serving of power pop from a rising Virginia band equipped with three different guitarists; riff snobs won't be disappointed. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 18, 2024
Earnest indie rock from Boston with songs that swing from hard-hitting rockers to tender ballads with heart-on-sleeve lyrics. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 27, 2022
A new track from Pretty Matty finds the band in top form, delivering clean yet crunchy hook-laden power pop with trademark high energy. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 25, 2020
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
