Lolla #35: Dawes

Sounds like: Like the poetry-magnet score of a Zach Braff movie [-10]

You can listen to them at: http://www.myspace.com/dawestheband

Sample Lyric: [with total seriousness] i need a silent true way to admire / like you as a sunset and i as a wildfire / and i can’t let the day go / i’ve locked up these words in fear that i’d say them wrong / is it love as a mountain or as a simple song [sunset, wildfire, mountain — you can’t make this up]/ and the moment that the two meet / has now laid itself at your [wait for it…] feet / and love is not convenient / it does not cease at you command / you might take and leave it / but love is all i am / love is all i am  [well, love and clichés]

Rather than see this band I will: set myself on fire.
