I fucking loved Sleater-Kinney, and was upset when they broke up. I know it’s cliche to talk about S-K when talking about Wild Flag, but they have way too much in common not too. I was pumped to see their first ever show (it happened to be in L.A. late) last year and they blew the roof off Spaceland. Carrie and Janet still got it.Their self-titled debut is on everyone’s list for best of the year, and deservedly so. They rock and harmonize better than anyone right now.

Lyrics – Wild Flag – Romance

hey hey can you feel it
the way it — you
the thump in your chest
you make my feet move
you turn my head —
that’s why i love you the best

hey you fill up the spaces
those empty places
the corners and cracks
you kill my sickness
my only witness
you’re all that i have

that’s how we like
we like what we like
that’s what we like
we love which is you
we got an eye
an eye for what’s romance
we’ve got our eyes
our eyes straight on you
you watch us dance
we dance till we’re dying
we dance to free ourselves from the room
we love the sound
the sound is what found us
the sound is the blood between me and you

back when i had no story
living a folly (?)
you got under my skin
you were my make up
my ——-
my reason to move

can’t stop the bleeding
no this leaving though i’ve tried
and when i return
with those fresh wounds you — inside

hey you’ve got me crawling
you’ve got me spinning
shake, shimmy, shake
first you — me, then resurrect me
too much

that’s how we like
we like what we like
that’s what we like
we love which is you
we got an eye
an eye for what’s romance
we’ve got our eyes
our eyes straight on you
you watch us dance
we dance till we’re dying
we dance to free ourselves from the room
we love the sound
the sound is what found us
the sound is the blood between me and you

that’s how we like what we like
that’s what we like
we love which is you
we’ve got an ear
an ear for what’s romance
we’ve got our ears
our ears straight on you
you watch us sing
we sing till we’re crying
we sing to free ourselves from the room
we love the sound
the sound is what found us
the sound is the blood (love?) between me and you

Spread the Love
