stone: how old are you? we have much the same taste. i am 39. (and i miss grunge so much. even listening to Nirvana lately.)
I'm 34, got into 4AD and related indie at about 14yo and obsessed music for next 10 years, lost touch (comparatively, anyway) for next 7 or 8 years, started buying new music again about 3 years ago.
Just arrived today, still making my mind up. Doesn't help when you've heard it live first though. Certainly not bad, still not decided if it measures up to first two.

you're more advanced than a cockroach,
have you ever tried explaining yourself
to one of them?

i've had this with actors before, on the set,
where they get upset about the [size of my]
trailer, and i'm always like...take my trailer,
cause... i'm from Kentucky
and that's not what we brag about.

Where were you when I was burned and broken
While the days slipped by from my window watching
Where were you when I was hurt and helpless
Because the things you say and the things you do surround me
While you were hanging yourself on someone else's words
Dying to believe in what you heard
I was staring straight into the shining sun
Lost in thought and lost in time
While the seeds of life and the seeds of change were planted
Outside the rain fell dark and slow
While I pondered on this dangerous but irresistible pastime
I took a heavenly ride through our silence
I knew the moment had arrived
For killing the past and coming back to life
I took a heavenly ride through our silence
I knew the waiting had begun
And headed straight..into the shining sun
