about

A skewed ditty for the age of Kali Yuga. For fans of scuzzy guitars and tangible anxiety. Lucy and Dale sing. Co-Produced by Chris Schlarb (Psychic Temple/Joyful Noise).

lyrics

Russia’s in the mirror. Russians in the lake. Mommy shot poor Lincoln, ‘cause she thought he was a snake. Motel of forever, plinking .22s. Someone shot poor Hoffa ‘cause he didn’t pay his dues.

All I see, all I need is the martial arts academy, where they chained us to the autumn leaves.

Spare me the mystery, give it to me plain. Was the chemical reaction worth a fraction of the pain?

All these charts and powerpoints, standing desks, computer noise, rehearsed rhythms and practiced positions.

All these scars and memories of the martial arts academy where they taught us ‘bout the finer things like making love to enemies.

Like a tire needs a road, a killer needs a code. A dog needs a master, a broke heart bleeds faster.

SKY CHEFS Los Angeles, California

Somewhere in Los Angeles there’s a cluttered garage studio lovingly dubbed the Whack Ark. Inside, surrounded by wobbly tape machines, Craigslist castoffs, and an old iMac named Gozer, Dale Nicholls writes and records as Sky Chefs.
