From Brooklyn based, indie electronic pop artists, OF CLOCKS AND CLOUDS.
Art music from this band was tweeted out to us last week. With a big 80's vibe and thoughtful, yet twisted, lyrics, can you say this music is for the birds?
We are obviously big fans of feathered creatures around here, we say, call the tune, ramble on, celebrate the freedom of music!

BIRDS
When you get to where you're going
Forgetting already where you've been.
And so the voices seem to tell
Exactly when and where to chime in.
To fulfill the absolute most,
And to stand out from the herd.
I'll try my best- but still
Those goddamn Birds.
Birds keep spinning around my head
And they're driving me insane- HELP ME BABY!!!
Birds keep swimming around my bed
And they're driving me in-sane!!!
So many notions to run full speed
into this human race of defeat.
Attempt to deliver on a consistent basis to society.
Try not to pay attention to the voices
Deep from within and above.
Live comfortably underneath your own limitations.
Cover yourself, if you can,
in the SHADOW of the ones you love.
Birds keep spinning around my head
And they're driving me insane- HELP ME BABY!!!
Birds keep swimming around my bed
And they're driving me in-sane!!!
Go above and beyond your nearest and dearest dreams and hopes.
Build a better, bigger life.
Develop your mind, your body, your spirit.
Don't size yourself up to other people!!
Breathe within yourself.
Challenges will always arise.
Be mindful of wearing your DISGUISE.
Birds keep spinning around my head
And they're driving me insane- HELP ME BABY!!!
Birds keep swimming around my bed
And they're driving me in-sane!!!
And in the end one might find that all these birds have unified in one bold beautiful formation soaring proudly across the sky above all of us- instantly unifying.
That the theories of yesteryear will all fade as we forge ahead into a glorious future.
Or so I've heard.
But until then...THOSE GODDAMN BIRDS.
Birds keep spinning around my head
And they're driving me insane- HELP ME BABY!!!
Birds keep swimming around my bed
And they're driving me in-sane!!!

Excerpts from their biography~
Toronto-based quintet Low Level Flight (LLF) started in 2006. This band of hook-laden independent rockers have been carving a fresh path thanks to a common vision, an inimitable sound and some fiendishly fetching music. It's an accomplishment highlighted by their latest work, sophomore opus Through These Walls (Brave Rekords).
The band's debut effort Urgency (2007) saw Low Level Flight channel primary influences such as the lilting, atmospheric flare of Interpol and Muse's almost symphonic indie rock delivery into an entirely unique overture. Leading to three Top 10 videos and two Top 40 singles, their music spread across the United States, Canada and even an extensive tour of India.
Signing on Time Music, in conjunction with Bombay Rock Association and via sponsors including Rolling Stone India, Jim Beam, Hard Rock Cafe and the Canadian government, LLF brought their peerless sound to the likes of Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore and Delhi, an experience Malcolm and crew revel in.
From Beacon, NY, THE TALL WEEDS are growing fast throughout the Hudson Valley.
Catch the Energy!
