I'm no wire on a white horse
But I'm wondering if I’m good enough
Your struggle is a sleek grief sold out front
I’m no slugger of the backstreets
Tell me why they gotta vouch for me
They’re still moving to the backseat, one by one
So don’t omit holding on
When moving against these years
Give it hell, don't just sell on signs you know what rightful is
And when you hear hope is gone
From those who you keep so dear
Don't give out, I would shout all night to fight that fire here
When you said you couldn’t stand this
So pretentious like I planned it all
Your silent preservation overflows
There’s an echo in the hallway
Shouting louder at an open door
Nassau back to Metro, lost your clothes
So don’t omit holding on
When moving against these years
Give it hell, don't just sell on signs you know what rightful is
And when you hear hope is gone
From those who you keep so dear
Don't give out, I would shout all night to fight that fire here
Thought I missed your call
But I was only dreaming
Selfish, cruel, and cold
For making other plans
Could only ask for help
In ways that were revealing
Couldn’t thank myself
If I fail to react
So don’t omit holding on
When moving against these years
Give it hell, don't just sell on signs you know what rightful is
And when you hear hope is gone
From those who you keep so dear
Don't give out, I would shout all night to fight that fire here
Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way). s. moxley
I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
Terry Venemous is releasing new music every 3 weeks this year. His latest EP is sumptuous art pop with a wry sense of detachment.

Quixotic art-pop worldbuilding influenced by everything from French cinema and microbiology to Taoist poetry and current events. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 7, 2024
The London singer-songwriter crafts comforting, yet off-kilter, alternative pop fleshed out with elements of folk and soul. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 23, 2023
A truly stunning album that mentally transports you to foggy early morning streets, the pavement wet from recent rains. Dreary, but in a comforting way. Like sitting next to a window during a rainstorm, listening to the drops hit the glass while remaining warm. Never fails to make me feel safe. Crow Yo
