    Man - I've watched your recordings of their shows so many times since the spring; led to following them and EVERY ounce of music press I could find, led to my leaping for joy (and for my wallet) to get tickets to the NYC Bowery show thr MOMENT they were announced, led to more monthslong wait til the show itself. I had several out-of-body experiences during it; I just couldn't believe they were there ten-odd feet away, blasting their brilliance out, live live. Many accolades and credit and all to the band, but am VERY MUCH thanking you for being that spark that changed lives, including mine. (So many side thoughts and comments but will add just one: Godzilla! My god. What a rocker! I feel like a teenager discovering a certain lead airship band too many decades late, but this time, I'm on time! And it's wonderful!)

    I don’t really follow much new music these days (being 45 and all) however I recently stumbled across this band a couple of weeks ago after listening to the new track by Liam Gallagher and John squire on Spotify and it just kept rolling afterwards into ‘Caesar on a TV Screen’. I’ve been extremely impressed with this band ever since. They are genuinely the first ‘new’ band that I have got into in over a decade. I wish them all the success in the world.

I still love all the bands I loved along the way. This band is pretty special, and am sure are having the effect they had on you on loads of folk.

    I'm in New York, and discovered this band last month through Sirius XMU's weekly download 15 (weekly new music). Ears perked up immediately. Not much out there on them, so big thanks for capturing and posting this performance. The audio is the best of all the live vids I've seen on YT. They even got play on the local NPR station here, WFUV 90.7 FM (but the version with "have you" instead of "f**k you"). Hoping they tour the U.S. soon. Hoping for a trajectory like the one Wet Leg has had over the last two years!

      Hi Herman. Glad you found them here. Thanks for your kind words. The audio worked out well on this one, more be luck than judgement.

    [Verse 1]
    When it's on your blouse
    You think it’s so romantic
    But in reality
    We're both just addicts
    [Chorus]
    I am not the girl I set out to be
    Let me make my dreams a commodity
    Do what I can to survive
    There is candle wax melting in my veins
    So I keep myself standing in your flames
    Burn, burn me alive
    [Verse 2]
    I am at the stage
    Put on my perfume
    [?]
    I never could say no
    You don't wanna hurt me
    But I want you to
    I break off my wrist
    To wring another you
    [Pre-Chorus]
    You make me bite my tongue
    And now there’s blood in my glass
    Will you buy me a new one?
    This is too good to last
    [Chorus]
    I am not the girl I set out to be
    Let me make dreams a commodity
    Do what I can to survive
    There is candlе wax melting in my veins
    So I keep myself standing in your flames

    I first heard and heard of this band when I saw them supporting Florence + the Machine in Cork back in June 2023, and they blew me away! Great songs, Abi has such a presence at the front, and Emily slays that guitar! Lots of influences - particularly from the 70s (Sparks, Roxy, Bowie, Abba), but there's no mistaking their sound! I've seen them a few times since - the last twice were both acoustic sets which were absolutely gorgeous, and I have a few gigs in their Autumn 2024 UK tour. Funny thing though - I see one or two of the same names amongst the few critical/hate comments on the TLDP videos on my channel as there are on here - I don't get it, why do some people feel the need to comment on multiple videos of the same act that they don't like? Move on, find something you do like, and don't try and tell me and others what is and what is not acceptable to like!

    This is the only thing
    I know how to do
    make the keys turn red
    and my lips turn blue
    I break on the pavement
    you could swim in these eyes
    'coz i'm no good 'till I cry
    she's there when i wake up
    at the end of my bed
    with a smile on her face
    and a gun to my head
    and lately i've been thinking
    what if i keep sinking
    if I drown will they make me a star?
    when you drown do they know who you are?
    I'm just a mirror
    break my glass to fix your parts
    i'm just a mirror
    pretty glass and empty heart
    I'm just a mirror
    I don't exist without your kiss
    I fade away, I fade away
    I'm on the hunt for something
    for my pound of flesh
    is it in this city
    is it in your bed
    fall out with the sunrise
    no-one else is to blame
    I'll leave flowers
    but not my ?
    'coz lately i've been drinking
    i need to stop my thinking
    tell me how you're feeling
    I'll reflect the reason
    when I drown I won't get very far
    when You drown I'll forget who you are
    I'm just a mirror
    break my glass to fix your parts
    i'm just a mirror
