lyrics

PERFECTLY YOUNGER. Pretend my voice is lost. Pretend I’m not grown up. Let the man drop to the valley of the belly. Come up and down and alongside. Like a lover late at night, half awake and horny, it comes at me in the dark, an in-between a copy of myself in another place. Come to me then, when you no longer can. Come to me then, when you no longer can, and I am perfectly younger. Perfectly younger. There are prayers in the distance, holding up the night. I hope I want you later, like I do right now. Right now. I never know what’s real, still it lives in me like a religion that I used to hold. The vow is in my name and in my blood. I remember you like that, in the grey blue bouncing off of the sky. So much like yourself that day. Your pain in place, a lonesome freedom in your face. Come to me then, when you no longer can. Come to me then, when you no longer can, and I am perfectly younger. Perfectly younger.

Thus Owls Montreal, Québec

The mesmerizing and dark velvet sounding Thus Owls from Montreal is built around the core of Swedish-Canadian couple Erika and Simon Angell. Simon’s harshly charismatic guitar blends with the urgency of Erika’s vocals to create a sound that bends and stretches their unusual compositions into ever newer and surprising shapes. ... more
