I can't be swayed by
Cliche thoughts when they speak.
Oh no, not selling this mind to
All things bleak.
Let in, draw out
The pain and
Self doubt.
Don't let it drag you down, down.
When you look past the surface
You'll see me.
I'm the book, I'm its' pages
I'm the tree leaves.
When you look past the first thing
You see.
You'll be shook
By the weight of everything.
There's nonsense surrounding me,
Hear my plea.
So low it carries me,
So often we
Pretend it's fine, ignore the signs.
Let's make up our minds, minds, minds.

Once again, all songs on this EP could be hit singles for almost any other band! That alone shows the talent and musical creativity Nick has in his head, and he somehow manages to arrange his ideas to form perfect melodies within the beautiful songs! One day there needs to be a 99MMFTS gatefold 2XLP or 3XLP album of the songs Nick chooses, and I would die a happy man! Charlie Mayer
"Flower Of Life" yanks riot grrrl south through the unmistakable garage psych sound indispensable to the last 20-odd years of rock music out of Los Angeles. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 2, 2023
