I'm a bird of prey reeling in the hot summer sky I could die today waiting for the news to arrive some might say you should have left the poor kid alone but if I'm to blame they'll never have me back at home There was a time when I wandered around, I was afraid of the ground it sticks in my mind how I'll never be found out running the town on you Cuz I'm a bird of prey reeling in the hot summer sky I'll fly away and never have to kiss you goodbye

Work forever, chained together pledge your allegiance to the flag go round, round and round in circles 'til you start again Be a good child, meek and so mild do your homework everyday don't ask any questions just obey You're bleeding for someone you don't believe in saving it up for the sackcloth that you'll grieve in Sleep and slumber, rank and number be a robot and a slave conform to your program cradle to grave

about

Special thanks to the prestigious Western Canadian music festival that accidentally booked us onto an acoustic stage and didn't tell us until the last minute, thereby defaulting on a contract and having to pay us exactly the amount we needed to book the NMC for a day. We were pretty bummed about not getting to play, but, ultimately getting to make a record in a super cool studio with a bunch of neato instruments was more exciting. I only wish we had that kind of money to throw around more often, but there's only so many grants to go around, and I don't see us ever making the kind of stuff that makes the Canada Council for the Arts cream their tight little jeans.

released November 24, 2023

Graham Lessard helmed the absolutely delightful custom Olympic studios board for the engineering portion, and the Trident A for the mixing portion, with gracious assistance from Eric Cinnamon.
Renee Pasula gamely stepped to the plate at the eleventh hour to assume both the electric organ and piano duties, fortunately she has two hands and was able to manage it.
Michael Movold and Joey DeCosse handled the bass and drums respectively, while Shaun Lee took care of guitars and a bit of extra percussion and keyboard stuff.
Everyone sang except Joey because he is a drummer and that would be wrong.

The Psychic Alliance Vancouver, British Columbia

The less you know about this band, the better. Rumor has it that they're very bad people, paranoid, misanthropic, frequently given to melancholy and intellectual dullards to boot. Stories of vicious infighting and naughtiness follow them like a black cloud, and the threat of immediate collapse is constant. Fortunately they look cool. ... more
