about

Famous Shipwrecks was recorded and mixed by Dale Nicholls and Rian Lewis in some of Portland's most illustrious basements, bedrooms, and garages. The result is a short and sweet five-song collection of hand-made micro epics. Mastered by Kris Crummet. Blake Carrillo did the sweet artwork.

lyrics

I saw your sweater on the chair, green and folded like a cat. Smell of love, smell of fear and warm beer, our summertime nightmare. Our bodies tall and pink like smog. With our crooked eyes we watched the halogen trees move only inches. Lock the doors and hit the trenches!

Yeah, but they’re catching on! I can see the shadows across the lawn. Yeah, but they‘re catching on! What we gonna do now that summer‘s gone?

I touched your hand then moved away, you wore my yellow shirt everyday. Time has come for manufactured thrills, but time heals and time kills, and I’m dyin'.

Yeah, but they’re catching on! I can see the shadows across the lawn. Yeah, but they’re catching on! What we gonna do now that summer’s gone? Yeah, but there‘s something wrong! You said I was king, but I’m just a pawn placed upon this golden memory, to look upon your frozen face Because I wanted you to jump, and you wanted me to stay.
