lyrics
I watch from the stairs,
Searching for anyone, don’t care.
I drink down my fight,
That’s what it takes to sleep through the night.
But two leaps away and I’d die for you.
My heart falls to doom, my lie.
And all of my shame,
Looking for anyone, to blame.
A light in my sight,
Can’t get close enough to make it right.
But two leaps away and I’d die for you.
My heart falls to doom, my lie.
But two leaps away and I’d break him through.
I won’t fall to doom, I’d fight.
I don’t know where to go, who to be, what’s inside of me.
And all of this time,
Running from anyone one, in my mind.
My strength not my might,
I can’t leave. I can’t accept the flight.
But two leaps away and I’d die for you.
My heart falls to doom, my lie.
But two leaps away and I’d break him through.
I won’t fall to doom, I’d fight, for you, I’d fight.

Lyrics by Barbara Western.
Recorded at 38 North Recording Studios by Sean Russell. Mixed at The Magpie Cage Recording Studio with J. Robbins. Mastered by Chad Clark at Silver Sonya.
Built around the sparkling voice of Barb Western and the signature guitar playing of Bryan Baxter, Koshari blends the
spacey, effects-drenched swirl of bands like My Bloody Valentine or Beach House with a bit of aggression and heaviness. The result is a creative voice at once familiar yet without close analog....more
Tattooed Love Boys gets all the attention on this record, but for me the real highlights are the two instrumental studies in the middle. Lydia & Crushow with its scratchy bass arpeggio intro and the soft acoustic gentleness of Not For Me, For Them. Beautiful stuff as always. Keep raising the bar y'all. endofanera
This album is amazing from start to finish! It's got such a cool, poetic, punk rock vibe. Hits the soul, for real. Please come play in Miami, Florida soon! Thank you for your art! richnice1975
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
