Nicholas can't pay his rent
He lost his job when they closed the restaurant
He's got a kid so he asked us all for help
So we did what we could, and spread the wealth

Mama Hill, started a program
for at-risk kids, but she needs a new van
to take them home, so she started a fund.
it came up short, there's always more to be done.

Genevieve got cancer so we all donated.
Then she died and left behind her and Phil's kid.
There are so many of you who need so many things.
I'd love to be able to do something more than sing.

I love this album because it’s like a perfect amalgamation of Smog and The National an artist and band I love a lot. I love Noah’s voice, and the songs are great. popandy

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
Recorded over the space of a year, the vivid pop songs on the latest from themme fatale match sugary hooks with diaristic lyrics. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 13, 2022
