about

the lower east side used to be very different but how would you ever remember that?

lyrics

Go back one score ten in time
When alphabet spelled violent crimesnd New Yoricans wrote their rhymes
And all the while inspired macks
Would isolate percussion tracks
They moved their lips and birthed the rap

(CHORUS)
Everybody’s talking too loud
Everybody’s working for someone
I don’t know why

Crime would sink but the rents would rise
ABC’s were gentrified
Destination riverside

Coffee house became coffee houses
Poverty became property
A culture clash reduced to ash and packaged as
commodity

(CHORUS)

You can dress me up
But you cannot take me out

Heroes. Scoundrels. No accounts. Swell guys. Lousy Lovers. Great Americans. CMJ. NXNE. SXSW. Etc. Mike plays guitar. Josh likes Smashing Pumpkins. Jon plays drums. Neil is good for a drink but better for a harmony. We miss New York when we’re away. Met in London, every now and then, we’ll talk about that. We sound like your favorite band if they had never recorded that one album you didn’t like. ... more
