lyrics
Cúrfa:
Níl ionat ach ladrann, i riocht foichí
An mbeadh fonn ort mé ionsaí le cealg?
Ní dóigh liom go n-éireodh leat
Mar níl ionat ach ladrannín
Níl ionat ach ladrannín
Ag rith ar thanaí atá tú
Lá amháin tiocfaidh beach nó seabhac nó préachán
A aithneoidh gur bréag atá ann
Roimh tú chogaint agus caitheamh amach
Is do mhionsciatháin
Cúrfa
Chruthaigh tú pictiúr le taispeáint don saol
Is scéin ort go dtréigfeadh dath na híomhá
Ach fiú tríd an gcóta tiubh, daite go geal
Faoin dubh agus ór, is léir dom nach bhfuil...
Cúrfa
Cén fáth go dteastaíonn uait mé a scanradh?
Níl mé ach i mbun mo ghnó
Seans ann gur instinn ainmhíoch?
Ach níl creach agat, gan nead le caomhnú
Níl ann ach do mhuineál féin
Ar mire, ag scinneadh thart
Ach cá bhfuil tú ag dul?
An bhfuil fhios an domhain ad?

unironic beauty and sincerity is something i am deeply uncomfortable with. i switched to parliament 100s after hearing this record. proceed with caution. 7.7/10 P4ked
Drifting dreampop and snarling grunge, with potent vocals wrapped in gauzy textures one minute, surrounded by jagged riffs the next. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 21, 2023
A hushed and low-lit EP from this Melbourne musician, where dreamlike melodies drift across a bed of tender guitar. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 19, 2023
