Digi single release by estranged group Halfheads (members Weak Boys, Fancy Boys, Trophy Wives, many others), whom last played a live show in 2010 when they released a demo tape (it's on soundcloud) then smokebombed outta here. We had the band Voltron into Hobo HQ last year (2019) where they put down a buncha new and buncha old stuff and here is the first taste HANGIN' AROUND with artwork by Ballarat's finest Ben Mangan (Lymes, Z-Rays).
Released March 26, 2020
lyrics
Hanging Around:
I’ve been hanging around with you,
hanging around it’s true,
seemed like the right thing to do,
to just hang around with you.
[Slip those seven seals to reset the sun. Now look at the good things we’ve done]
Cats chasing lasers and brunch,
Fugazi, Twin Peaks and slam dunks,
everything that makes us cum,
daydreams and dresses undone.
[Slip that seventh seal and reset the sun. Relax, the good stuff has only begun!]
Like coffee and donuts and snuff,
and love’s endless morning.
I’ve been hanging around with,
you’ve been hanging around with,
I’ve been hanging around with you.

The Black Lips return with a record that draws heavily on country music, spiking it with their time-tested irreverence. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 7, 2019
