lyrics
PLATE GLASS EYES
R: Vocals, guitars, bass, synths
Mother: Drums
With the specters of night there’s a burning drive to admit our lies
At the break of dawn we see the dust from the truth
As the tracks of dogs lead past our homes with their muzzles off
They crash the cars and leave them smoking for you
I see myself in those plate glass eyes
I see you in the valley below
I see myself in those plate glass eyes
I see you in the valley below
With uncanny pride the phantoms of night let out their cries
While the sleeping babes shake their heads with disgust
All the shrines of fools started closing in with increasing thirst
Where’s the last of the wise men left to go
I see myself in those plate glass eyes
I see you in the valley below
I see myself in those plate glass eyes
I see you in the valley below
I see myself in the valley below
R: Vocals, guitars, bass, synths
Mother: Drums
With the specters of night there’s a burning drive to admit our lies
At the break of dawn we see the dust from the truth
As the tracks of dogs lead past our homes with their muzzles off
They crash the cars and leave them smoking for you
I see myself in those plate glass eyes
I see you in the valley below
I see myself in those plate glass eyes
I see you in the valley below
With uncanny pride the phantoms of night let out their cries
While the sleeping babes shake their heads with disgust
All the shrines of fools started closing in with increasing thirst
Where’s the last of the wise men left to go
I see myself in those plate glass eyes
I see you in the valley below
I see myself in those plate glass eyes
I see you in the valley below
I see myself in the valley below

about
FOTOCRIME Louisville, Kentucky
Fotocrime is singer/guitarist and producer Ryan Patterson, guitarist Nick Thieneman, and bassist Will Allard. With danceable, battle hymn drum machines and layered synths, Fotocrime brings monochrome clarity to electronic-meets-organic post-punk with driving bass, chiming guitars, and Patterson's unmistakable baritone. Fotocrime seethes with Cold War paranoia, modern-day malaise and smoky noir. ... more

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago.
