lyrics
ascending in the darkness
into the clouds we thrust
removal from the surface
the power you can harness
the prowess one can trust
do we really deserve this
the world below, it spins round
as if detached from earth
it makes a person nervous
and everyone who's skybound
having built up the nerve
in deference to your purpose
all alone way up high
doing what must be done
on your own in these skies
battles can still be won
the rain streaks tell their stories
and stories spread around
to never be outnumbered
but all that's in its glory
across the glistening sound
can be seen unencumbered
for who should hear the calling
the one to make it so
the one we can believe in
to never speak of falling
wherever you should go
where heights can be deceiving
what's it like to look down
hoping nothing's broken
at the heart of this town
gratitude unspoken
painter of translucent clarity
every swipe another dream
made clear for the next to see
the next to see
way up high
into the clouds we thrust
removal from the surface
the power you can harness
the prowess one can trust
do we really deserve this
the world below, it spins round
as if detached from earth
it makes a person nervous
and everyone who's skybound
having built up the nerve
in deference to your purpose
all alone way up high
doing what must be done
on your own in these skies
battles can still be won
the rain streaks tell their stories
and stories spread around
to never be outnumbered
but all that's in its glory
across the glistening sound
can be seen unencumbered
for who should hear the calling
the one to make it so
the one we can believe in
to never speak of falling
wherever you should go
where heights can be deceiving
what's it like to look down
hoping nothing's broken
at the heart of this town
gratitude unspoken
painter of translucent clarity
every swipe another dream
made clear for the next to see
the next to see
way up high

Chipthrash doesn't get better than this, and you'd be hard-pressed to find a full-length chiptune LP that goes as hard for as long. Killer from front to back.

AFTER THE LIGHTS FAILED
by Curious QuailCurious Quail's second full-length LP was my favorite release of 2014. Thoughtful indie rock with orchestral and chiptune elements sprinkled throughout.

If you're like me and constantly crave new, quality drum and bass that just doesn't seem to come around as often as it used to, you'll enjoy this brief journey from start to finish.
