A meal of diet pills and sausages with a side of melted snow.

The Notes - Wishing Well →
In the distance were the angled silhouettes of cranes, out there in the docks of the forgotten western suburbs. We stood on the balcony with our films of sweat and all our solutions, spoken or otherwise.

The Wild Frontier - Until the Day Breathes →
She was holding the nail file like a shiv, tucked up behind her wrist.
Calamity, I thought.

exray's - ammunition teeth (Ep) →
I was in an alley of neon and christmas lights, phosphorescent cubes and lines of light floated before me. I climbed aboard a street car and hung from the side. The bell clanged and the air was all sea salt and smog.

The Rostovs - The Rostovs EP →
Drinking six dollar wine from pewter goblets and listening to the possum talking in the walls. We don’t know if the blighter is distressed or just going about his business.

White Arrows - I'm On Fire (Boss Cover) →
“Cover for me if the boss comes back,” he said to us. “Sure thing,” I said. Me and the other guy, we spent the afternoon betting on raindrops racing down the window and drinking warm champagne.

Richmond Fontaine - Obliteration by Time →
We skipped town and drove as far as we could. It got real cold up north. Eventually we ran outta money and had to go back.

Council of Lions - HEXES →
Is it a longing to get away? Or just a desire for something different? People tell me it’s a typical 30’s thing and I feel much better. Good we’re all the same, I think.

Van Walker - The Celestial Railroad →
He wore a possum skin jacket and his jeans had seen a lot of swamp time. As he made his way to the mandolin sitting in the corner he made gruff, throaty sounds. His beard went to his waist.

Hoodlum Shouts - Horses And Human Hands →
I walked through the town and tried to go unnoticed.
“I can’t believe there aren’t more shootings, I can’t believe there aren’t more cars ablaze.”
I kept walking and thought about how apathy was such a powerful thing, and how perverse this was.

The water in the rivers of New Zealand is an unnatural colour, as if it is entirely another element.

Seth Frightening - The Prince and His Madness →
I don’t know how you couldn’t find me. I was right there by the creek all afternoon, with a flask of dandelion wine and some caramel slice.

Meridian Signals - Mercator Songs →
On long car trips home I would fall asleep and when I awoke it always seemed to be at the same point. I’d look out the window and see some sort of refinery in the distance, its orange lights in the night. I’d always see it, every time. What did it do? What went on in there? I never knew.

The town is soundtracked by a ceaseless rain, backed by the steady beat of three million windscreen wipers.
