absinthefaery As covid recedes and the scars are revealed, this song still soothes.

Too soon to tell if the tsunami is over or another wave is coming, as we cautiously venture back to the lives we left behind.

I think I jinxed it.

CRLSS The lyrics are so straight up. Telling it exactly how it is, literally in the moment and reflecting the angst of being a young band on the up and up; just to suddenly enter a world with the absence of live shows..essentially putting your band on hold. At least putting a huge portion of what the fuck a band does on hold. Perform live. This track will go down in history. Favorite track: Lockdown Blues.

about

Written in the wake of the lockdown on gatherings, borders, schools and life as we know it, “Lockdown Blues” is an attempt at addressing this troubled new reality during Covid-19.

We’ve felt the urge to touch base now that the physical touch has been suspended and contribute an effort to raise spirit In the face of adversity.

All profits from Bandcamp will proceed directly to Médecins Sans Frontières who right now are doing their best to provide aid where it so urgently is needed the most.

Our thoughts are with all those in jeopardy to the many various horrors in relation to the crisis, those situated on the front lines and those who are direly compromised.

Stay safe, take care and keep up the good fight,

Iceage

lyrics

Your river flows again, my love
I know you've been choked
A loosened clamp around your beak 
While crowds and parties mock the weak

A sudden fatal tenant
Seizes room
Didn't grasp what I had until
It was robbed absent too soon

Covid-19 Lockdown Blues
The only way out is through
A wraithlike peril spread across our seven seas
Empty shelves in barren streets
Confined domestic quarantine
How the itching for lost touch is deafening
Covid-19 Lockdown Blues

Covid-19 Lockdown Blues

The lid's on the kettle
Measured to subdue
Steamed figures rising
In a sulk warped for its roof
like rings propagate in water
Motion's no vaccine
Those cut-off wages darlin'
Don't rinse down with Listerine

I got the,

Covid-19 Lockdown Blues
The only way out is through
A wraithlike peril spread across our seven seas
Empty shelves in barren streets
Confined domestic quarantine
How the itching for lost touch is deafening
Covid-19 Lockdown Blues
