Arctic Monkeys - 505

I’m going back to 505
If it’s a 7-hour flight or a 45-minute drive
In my imagination, you’re waiting, lying on your side
With your hands between your thighs

Stop and wait a sec
Oh, when you look at me like that, my darling, what did you expect?
I’d probably still adore you with your hands around my neck
Or I did last time I checked

Not shy of a spark
A knife twists at the thought that I should fall short of the mark
Frightened by the bite, no, it’s no harsher than the bark
The middle of adventure, such a perfect place to start

I’m going back to 505
If it’s a 7-hour flight or a 45-minute drive
In my imagination, you’re waiting, lying on your side
With your hands between your thighs

But I crumble completely when you cry
It seems like once again you’ve had to greet me with goodbye
I’m always just about to go and spoil the surprise
Take my hands off of your eyes too soon

Well, I’m going back to 505
If it’s a 7-hour flight or a 45-minute drive
In my imagination, you’re waiting, lying on your side
With your hands between your thighs
And a smile

You Will Miss Me When I Burn

This time next month (27 February), Domino will reissue the five albums Will Oldham recorded between ‘93 and ‘97 under the Palace alias he used before Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy. All five, including mini album Hope, will be out on vinyl and record sleeve-style digipack CD, featuring new artwork and liner notes.

I came to Oldham’s Palace work via his later, more refined albums under the Bonnie name and was astounded by their raw, ragged intimacy and the way they revel in their lo-fi settings. Can’t wait to drop the needle on ‘The Brute Choir’ from Viva Last Blues in particular.

Below, a Palace session recorded for John Peel, 5 June 1994:

Dirty Projectors - See What She Seeing

I can see myself loving Swing Lo Magellan even more than Bitte Orca. Shit’s hypnotic and infectious, although that could just be tone of Dave Longstreth’s voice.
