about

I am not from Maine, but I wanted to know what it's like to be a skateboarding teen in Maine, as I am a skateboard to some degree in my free time. After doing a good amount of internet research about what teen life is like in Maine, I came to realize it's just like anywhere else. We all feel trapped in our Shitty little home towns, and can't wait to leave.
But then, if it's the same everywhere, you can't run away from your problems, can you?
I heard that there's 6 weeks of decent weather in Maine, and the rest is a gross slosh of grey and wet. I imagined March, the traditional month in which Spring prevails being a continuation of Winter. To me, March is the month I met my ex-girlfriend, whom which I broke up with during Winter Break (See Heccra-Kazooie).

lyrics

March is going to shit on my soul
Carelessly bury me beneath
a tingling tree with budding leaves.

Wind blows through and challenges our house
Dinosaurs stomp through and knock our healthbars down

Am I just a bucket to you? For your acid problems...
I'm rusted now

Your face is the state of Maine, in Winter.

Your face is the Hell I'm in, this Winter.

nobody (repeats)

to be close to you
by Julia Brown

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

Any track from GFFLCL is a banger and this album was my intro to them. Love everything on it. Really feels nostalgic just like watching FLCL all over again. イッキ
