I like it when it's rainy and it's stormy out, when it's cold and it's grey and it's stormy out. The weather and the sun in the grainy south has just about gone and done and wore me out. Then, the sun creeps up from behind the lonely clouds, and it's raining, again. I like it in the weather, in the grey sunshine, when creeps right up from a farmer's eyes, and I run through a neighborhood of old clotheslines, and it makes a louder sound in my night-time cries. Then, the sun creeps up from behind the lonely clouds, and it's raining, again. And, I ask you about the snow in your hair, and the miracles happening, everywhere, and a town that seems to never care. And, they blow right past, in their despair, without me; I know that I could help them see. Without me, I know that I could help them see. Why'd you have to leave me in the middle of that lecture hall? Why'd you have to leave me? I was just about to fall into your arms, so tight around me, they could make me fly, and take me to a place where I was not as afraid to die. Why you acting sad when there's styles you never knew? You're acting sad, even though I'm close to you. You're acting sad and, just like that, I'm acting sad, too. Why you acting scared when you know there's nothing there? You're shivering when I've cured all your nightmares. You're acting scared and, just like that, I'm acting scared, too. I like it when the kids come, play with me, little kids from the block with their monster trucks. They ask me if they can come, stay with me, and I only got one bedroom, man, it's just my luck. Then, someone creeps up, from behind, and says to me, "They can all stay with me." Then, I ask you about the snow in your hair, the miracles happening, everywhere, a town that seems to never care; they blow right past, in their despair, without me; I know that I could help them see. Without me, I know that I could help them see. Why'd you have to plug that upside-down Jesus light bulb in? Now, you've gone to town with it, trying to cure my sins. Into the sky, I think I'll fly when I am ready, and I don't need God, at least, not the same one you speak of, he sounds like a snob. Why you acting sad when there's styles you never knew? You're acting sad, even though I'm close to you. You're acting sad and, just like that, I'm acting sad, too. Why you acting scared when you know there's nothing there? You're shivering when I've cured all your nightmares. You're acting scared and, just like that, I'm acting scared, too.

Third Class recommends this release, by juche, a great act, out of Cincinnati, Ohio, with a very experimental take on soundscapes, beats, and concepts. Third Class' Jack Boyle is an active member. Third Class
Third Class recommends this release by Human Petting Zoo, a uke-punk act, from Youngstown, Ohio. The lyrics are honest, the recordings are straightforward, and the genre is refreshing. Third Class
Heartfelt without being cloying and playful while delving below the surface, the lo-fi indie of Metagirl embraces chaos and contradiction. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 7, 2023
