btlayfield Wonderfully infectious power pop. Became an instant fan after catching them at Fest this year! Favorite track: Where Do The Hardcore Kids Go?.

Eli Amazing album, even better live. I saw them play in DC and the dueling guitar solo melted my face off 🤯 Favorite track: Archipelago.

Archipelago 02:28
My boyfriend is buying my dinner tonight I don’t know I’m kind of losing my appetite I don’t think I should let him but is that bad? Is free food a freedom women have? My friends told me so And out of anybody they would know My conscience is too broken to reconcile Splintering is what it feels like I’m made up of pieces like an archipelago I wear pearls and I sing in soprano To sound feminine The way I walk and talk is masculine so that you listen Are you listening and do you think that I’m right Do you believe this is what it feels like I’m made up of pieces like an archipelago One identity from a thousand assembled into metonyms Testosterone and estrogen So take my habits and string them up however you like Call me delicate and aggressive and kind But don’t forget I live here under the masks And that’s everything a girl could ask

Tell Me 03:22
Tell me that I am a monster Tell me I’m cruel and you’re cultured Make me think I’m underwater Hysterical and you’re calmer Tell me I’m weak and you’re stronger Tell me my behavior disorder Make me your personal performer And I’ll be waiting for someone to Take me back around the people who raised me Sweet like the summer cause lately The things that you tell me sound tasty And the air they’re replacing pains me Catches in my stomach like everything I tell myself when I go back home You live in fear of the other Searching for anything to cover That it’s not me that you hate it’s Just that you’re emasculated So tell me I’m weak and you’re stronger Tell me my behavior disorder Make me your personal performer And I’ll keep waiting for someone to Take me back around the city that raised me Sweet like the summer cause lately The coal mines in Mega sound tasty And the air they’re replacing pains me Catches in my stomach like everything I tell myself when I go back home Take me back around the people who raised me Sweet like the summer cause lately The things that you tell me sound tasty And the air they’re replacing pains me Catches in my stomach like everything I’ll never forget how you said it Disgusted and angry will somebody take me home

Where do all the hardcore kids go after the house show ends When they’re done hotboxing cigs in their parents’ minivans Then when they’ve lost all cred and they’ve straightened their edge what do they do then Do they blackmail their coworkers so their next gig has a big audience Where do all the hardcore kids go when they grow up into hardcore men and women When the angel of death comes do they go up to a hardcore heaven Where they can praise the Lord tapping their feet in seven four And then buy all God’s merch to make sure that He has a good tour Do they have families do they get jobs Do they take surfboards or do they take cars Have they felt happiness Are they at peace with their moms Are they immortal or are they just mortals like the rest of us Who will one day return into dust in the wind in Kansas Get to the gig This set’s so sick
