lyrics
pale green girl
lyrics and music by Penelope Houston
She's a pale green girl
sometime she's going to fly away
She's a pale green girl
but she might come back any day
And you cant look her in the eye
she knows a few too many things
You never look her in the eye
but wait 'til night, and then she sings
She going to burn down someone's house
you know your eyes are going to sting
She going to burn down someone's house just to dry her wings
She's a pale green girl
sometime she's going to float away
She's a pale green girl
but she might come back any day
She going to burn down someone's house
you know your eyes are going to sting
she going to burn down someone's house just to dry her wings
She's a pale green girl
sometime she's going to fly away
She's a pale green girl
but she might come back any day
She knows the way you pace the floor
she knows the way you fucked her dry
She knows you're tapping on her door
you never heard a baby cry
She going to burn down someone's house
you know your eyes are going to sting
she going to burn down someone's house just to dry her wings

33 years after their first album they still sound like they have something to say.

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!!

ITEKOMA HITS
by Otoboke Beaver おとぼけビ～バ～supported by 6 fans who also own “Pale Green Girl”
Exceptional punk music! I love sloppy punk, but this manages to be clean without without losing any energy at all (maybe even getting more of it in the process!). Can't recommend it enough and show them to everyone I know

Sword Songs
by Two Steps on the WaterOff-kilter country songs with big, beating hearts, the music on “Sword Songs” captures hope and heartache in equal measure.
go to album -
Dead Cross, Retox, and Qui members dish out subversive hardcore with an indignant smirk; come for the riffs, stay for the synth experiments.

This Is All We Ever Get
by SPACEDKnockout debut from a Buffalo, New York-based hardcore band who like their riffs sick, their drums fast, and their choruses sticky-sweet.

A lovely addition to the best project of 2023, that at some points feel like B-Sides, but is overall just as strong as the work that made it on "the record"
