It only stops to start again And silence is my only friend Love only came to leave again And boredom is my only friend

The Bores Of Asstown Hello, lovely Heather, is it time to change the scene? (Your) jacket made of leather offends no one except me Hello lovely Heather take your boyfriend and his beard Drowned in craftbeer oceans with his bulldog dumb and weird Come on cutie Heather - easy going as you say Talk about the weather and your craftsmanship with clay Come on, lovely Heather - get your nails done, there you go Cause you just don’t know Here is Heather’s Rodney - he’s the singer in a band They play old time music - oh he wished they lived back then Come on, righteous Rodney, take your Martin and then go Go to Manitoba crossbowhunting in the snow Go and play the savage - like you’re living in the past don’t forget your counselling - you know we’ll have a blast Take your handsome denims, thirteen ounces head to toe Cause you just don’t know. (He’s a C.E.O. …And he just don’t know…)

Noch Gar Nicht Ob wir nicht vielleicht irgendwo leben koennten, nicht gleich Aber spaeter irgendwann und dann in Ruhe Du sagst das waer’ nicht leicht und das Leben Dir oft zu seicht Und Du waerst viel unterwegs - auch im Kopf und so Und Du lachst und sagst es waeren schwere Zeiten Und kein Platz fuer visionaere Zaertlichkeiten Nur der Abend hier und meine gruenen Augen Und als waer’s ein Spiel mein Herz mir auszusaugen, ah hey, hey.. Was Du sagst ist mir nicht neu, bin ja selber gern so frei Und im Zweifel ist der beste Platz noch die Autobahn Aber waere es nicht schoen in den Sonnenuntergang zu seh’n Wenn sich unsere Wege kreuzen, schon beim naechsten Mal? Komm wir probiern’s, nur dieses eine Mal, komm wir probiern, nur dieses Letzte Mal, komm wir probiern’s nur dieses eine Mal, nur dieses eine Mal, Nur dieses eine Mal, nur dieses eine Mal

Made to Measure Mae West There was nothing to say in the days of the supplement Sand Castle Queen fucks a Hippie whereas your friends look like Tom Cruise Somebody bless all the drinks and the people who paid for them I think you never forget the folks who teach you to hang loose Destruction has it’s own beauty and it’s a joy to get into it The only thing with destruction is it might change for the worse And I thought I knew what you think about these days I want to see all my friends for a verbal embrace Now here’s a bachelor of Science in psychological tailoring And here she comes far too soon and thinks she’s mighty and strong And she says:”I know what you think about..” And she says:”I know what you think about..” And she says:”I know what you think about these days.” And I say:” uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..” And there is no time to understand And there is no time to cry And we shouldn’t even take the time Time to forget

about

abel collective Vancouver, British Columbia

"abel collective is a Vancouver-based psychedelic pop group with an ever changing line-up centred around German ex-pat, singer, song-writer, Thor Abel. abel collective's shimmering sound is informed by a ‘60s palette - from chanteuse, to be-in, to happening - filtered and expanded through the the storm of Shoegaze and a hunger for elevation."
