about
Trees
Written by Jenna Fournier
lyrics
Where I'm from, the sun don't shine, though it sits high up in the sky.
The air is hot, the air is dry, but the hearts are cold of passerby's.
They come to sail, to get away, to let their demons out to play.
The trees, the trees.. are screaming as they sway.
"Hold me, hold me, hold me. Oh!" they beg.
"I need, I need, I need a drink today."
So I break, fold my hands, and pray for rain.
Where I'm from, the girls get 'tuff',
because the drugs aren't weak and the boys play rough.
They keep you up for days or weeks, and when you try to quit,
they come for free. So you sleep away your bad dreams....
..and litter dirty secrets onto dirty streets.
The trees, the trees are screaming as they sway.
"Hold me, hold me, hold me!" Oh, they beg.
"I need, I need, I NEED a drink today."
So I break, fold my hands, and pray for rain.
NIIGHTS shifts between dream-pop and heavier rock with ethereal female vocals floating above shimmery layers of fuzz and texture, channeling the spirit of 90's shoegaze into poignant songwriting.
The title track pulled me into Slow Crush's orbit, but Tremble held me there - alongside Lull from the Hush LP and the whole of Seasurfer's Dive In, it can send me into an altered state of consciousness. The album vibrates with hints and nudges, from Slowdive twangs to a Corgan-esque chord shift, but Slow Crush are their own sound - thick, dark melodic, etherealistic soundscapes with Isa Holliday's vocals both binding the music and rising above it. One of the best bands in years. sentientpoet
