9    Been Like This

a metaphor also for spirit and body renewal and rebirth after trauma

the band continue to deliver the sound of the Brian Jonestown Massacre

straddling between a world of ‘Fuck you Leon…/ You stole the sunglasses and I got busted’ and a desire for ‘Porridge in the morning and be normal’
