A Year on Your Own This rat he is mean friend a cat friend of me He is grey and he lives on Rum Road Don’t say his name because this rat isn’t tame He is free So, what if you spent a year on your own Would you think that the world was gone I think we all got it wrong. I think we all got it wrong Cars are passing incredibly fast Makes me feel like I’m made out of glass I think we all got it wrong. I think we all got it wrong So I spent an hour staring at a chair To turn around turn around and find it wasn’t there Knew there was something inconsistent But I think I might have missed it That is why I should be more aware So I spent an hour staring at a chair To turn around turn around and find it wasn’t there Knew there was something inconsistent But I think I might have missed it That is why I should be more aware So I dug a hole outside: it was three feet wide I put myself inside: saw a place to hide This rat he is mean friend a cat friend of me He is grey and he lives on Rum Road Don’t say his name because this rat isn’t tame He is me So, what if you spent a year on your own Would you think that the world was wrong I think we all got it wrong. I think we all got it wrong Cars are passing incredibly fast Makes me feel like I’m made out of glass I think we all got it wrong. I think we all got it wrong So I spent an hour staring at a chair To turn around turn around and find it wasn’t there Knew there was something inconsistent But I think I might have missed it That is why I should be more aware So I dug a hole outside: it was three feet wide And put myself inside: for a place to hide

about

An absurdist-logico mix of Euro pop, Beat poetry, and subterranean lo-fi adventuring.

Available on 180gm limited edition vinyl and on CD from www.fishriderrecords.com and www.occultation.co.uk

“The new wave of New Zealand pop begins here....it’s remarkable, leaping from sea-sick waltzes and crunchy post-punk to ADD-pop (see the hyper opener “La Rat”) 4/5 Uncut

“The kind of half-melted, buckled pop that suggests they’ve just re-entered earth’s atmosphere after a long strange trip away... Opposite Sex attract rather than repel.” Q

"It's absolutely brilliant...I absolutely adore it. It's going to be in my top five albums of the year definitely." Marc Riley, BBC 6Music
