This song was originally scrapped from Devil-Faces, but was added back after 6 years. And not surprisingly, it was written on a bike ride after it had rained.
lyrics
Collecting rainclouds in my bag of fields and grass. Time shows the change of mountains and hills to flats (but there’ll be more mountains.) You’re mad because I ruined your perfect trap. Waste no time, you must begin, I know you’ll spin another web again (what changed us from lovers to friends?) Whoa, you’ve got bikeride eyes, baby let’s go and ride, baby let’s go and ride.
I have a huge appreciation for texture, and sonic texture. This record's lo-fi is something so well felt, it's brilliant. I can't get over the one chord structured song, "How I spent my Summer." Heccra

Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too. Lu
