Lyrics
I wear your name like it’s a noose around my neck, I slipped a rope just to fall right into a net
I wear a smile like it’s a runner, your despise like a badge of honour
They say she’s good for an up and comer
I swim the seas between paranoia and disbelief, I reach the surface but the air is hard to breathe
I wear a smile like it’s a runner, your despise like a badge of honour
They say she’s good for an up and comer
And if you beat her like a drum
If you beat her like a heart
I bet she’ll fire for you still
I swear to god she’ll make a start
They said she’s good for an up and comer
Can I please be an up and comer
I wear your name like it’s a noose around my neck, I spent your love like it’s money I haven’t got just yet
I wear a smile like it’s a runner, your despise like a badge of honour
They say she’s good for an up and comer
I wear a smile like it’s a runner, your despise like a badge of honour
They say she’s good for an up and comer
And if you beat her like a drum
If you beat her like a heart
I bet she’ll fire for you still
I swear to god she’ll make a start
They said she’s good for an up and comer
Can I please be an up and comer
Here we go the devil’s knocking at my door

I have been keeping an ear on this Dublin band for a little while. They have some good, energetic alterna-rock like this new track. There’s more decent tracks on their Youtube and Bandcamp (like Modern Job and Literary Mind), with an album release coming in January. That’s about all I know about em.
Saw them at a festival in the summer, they absolutely tore it up. The lead singer is a tiny woman with a huge, furious energy that grand you by the throat. Brian live band, and I was immediately converted and will be a fan for life.
