Take me high above this flaming wreckage
Relentlessly it's burning all in sight
Devouring all that once before I treasured
Consuming all I thought would bring me life
Shaking, I'm the girl who never trembles
Weeping, I'm the girl who never cries
World inverted, everything off-balance
Desperate and fighting to survive
But I'll follow
'Til the day is through
And I'll follow
All the way
Easily distracted from the vision
Shadow figures dressed in black and white
Taste the bitterness of this false sweetness
Reach the crossroads, then begins the fight
But I'll follow
'Til the day is through
And I'll follow
All the way
So I'll follow (I'll follow, I'll follow, you're my guiding star)
'Til the day is through (I'll follow, you're the hand in the dark)
And I'll follow (I'll follow in the middle of the wilderness)
All the way (I'll follow to the end of the road, to the end of the road)
Through.

The Poet's Dream

On a Poet's lips I slept,
Dreaming like a love-adept
In the sound his breathing kept;
Nor seeks nor finds he mortal blisses,
But feeds on the aerial kisses
Of shapes that haunt Thought's wildernesses.
He will watch from dawn to gloom
The lake-reflected sun illume
The yellow bees in the ivy-bloom,
Nor heed nor see what things they be-
But from these create he can
Forms more real than living man,
Nurslings of Immortality!

I Don't Know Why I Do Anything
by LIPS
LIPS make off-kilter, danceable music that's a little bit post-punk, a little bit pop, and a little bit alternative rock.

Flower Of Life [LP]
by Taleen Kali
"Flower Of Life" yanks riot grrrl south through the unmistakable garage psych sound indispensable to the last 20-odd years of rock music out of Los Angeles.

Cruel Optimism
by NATURAL VELVET
Dreamy indie pop bent with just a bit of dissonance hits all the right notes and all the wrong ones.

L.A.’s No Swoon offer dazzling dreampop on this, their debut album, with feather-light melodies drifting over rolling guitars.
go to album
The excellent new LP from Seattle’s Fotoform pairs the moodiness of goth with drifting dream pop melodies, resulting in bewitching songs.
