Orchestra 03:47
Turn up the orchestra and let down your hair. Lean back in that chair. One strap off your arm and one leg in the air. It is too late to care. All blonde and perfect sometimes it still isn't worth it. Just another ring in the circus. Tightrope to walk and a new song to sing. It don't mean anything. Hope shaped like an arrow and a face like a fox. Box full of lies, just some new exercise that you don't understand. It ain't easy to land. No it was not that easy to lay her down.

Magic Words 04:04
Woke up in your old bedroom Woke up in your old bed Same glow-in-the-dark stars on the ceiling Same pillow under my head Same clothes you left hanging in the closet But they don't fit you no more Same notes that you left on your top dresser drawer Same view out the window same catch on the door Maybe there ain't no place Brooklyn Maybe there ain't no place like Queens Maybe there ain't no place left to go home to Maybe there ain't no place left to fit me But I remember a day on the river Remember a day in the park Remember a restaurant with horrible service Where I would go and watch you play guitar Over the din and the clatter All the tablecloths spattered with cheap red wine from the bar the calamari was so-so but time could move slow-mo when you struck a note and it shimmered like a star It was a pretty good gig I guess Free dinner and drinks and tips Sometimes I want to go back there Wish I could find the address Sometimes I wish time would move backwards Wish I knew which Magic Words would work best. I woke up from a dream. And the lights turned on. Doors slammed shut. Fell several stories. Then I woke up. It was just a dream.

Honestly 03:18
Gonna keep my coat on Not gonna change sides Not interested in making any friends. I can find my way out The same way that I came in I did not realize that I would be interrupting anything. Honestly. I always knew that I could walk this walk Knew I'd eventually run the shop. Always knew I had strong technique and that at my peak, at my peak, I would take this meet. Honestly. I am faster than you. I'll last longer than you. We can play it cool. Cool as ice. Talk about the weather and pretend to be nice. Honestly.

there was nothing there when we left and there'll be nothing left when we get back we're up in the air when there is nothing left to keep you tied down well the tiniest storms can just blow you around up in the air I used to drive you to the airport all the time it got so saying goodbye was the same as saying hi are you gonna fly us out of here? we're up in the air (are you gonna fly us out of here?) maybe we don't care anymore.

Success 04:07
All of the signs pointed to yes Stars in alignment Capricorns and Cancers Like ballroom dancers touching hands Cheek to cheek All of the signs pointed to yes but we said no No no no Is this success? 'Cause if so We expected more Shut that door and lock it Seal off the entire floor Cut the lights Chuck the key 'Cause there ain't nothing in it for you anymore and there ain't nothing in it for me anymore There ain't nothing we can do anymore The tank's on empty.

about

Rademacher California

At turns wry and censorious, Rademacher uses its rough-hewn indie rock — barbed-wire guitars, funhouse keyboard lines, Mancillas’ shout-sung vocals — to dissect what it’s like to make rough-hewn indie rock.
