      It’s called basketball shoes cause it’s named after a pair of air Jordan 11’s that Charlie Wayne,the drummer had, and the specific kind was called concord.

Can someone explain to me what this particular verse means? I feel like the meaning of a great punchline is totally lost on me lol.

    maybe kind of unusual thing to say but this is maybe one of the best mixed pieces of music I've ever heard. It's insanely difficult to make such a dense, multi-layered section of harmony and noise to sound as balanced and clear as the ending of this song. Whoever did this deserves a beer.

    Thank you for the random strangers on the internet that put me onto this band. They are indeed something special and a diamond in the rough when it comes to composing music in 2022. This is the type of music that attaches us to the soul of sound.
    They aren't necessarily making 100% original or unique in the genre they are in but its unique in the sense of just elevating that post-indie rock sound with jazz elements & production/lyrics/composition of the whole damn album that is something to celebrate in this day in age where music can be overly-processed copy/paste pick a relatable word and make a song about it.

    Instrumental Intro (0:00 - 3:18)
    Part I (3:18 - 5:25)
    Concorde flies in my room
    Tears the house to shreds
    Defines the night as such
    A home for us, stick insects
    And leaves no trace of luck
    At every market town that we intersect
    I die like fifteen times
    The dark blue stem brings me to their breast
    And I'm feeling kinda normal with a packed lunch
    Train rides don't hurt much these days
    We're all working on ourselves and we're praying that the rest don't mind how much we've changed
    So if you see me looking strange with a fresh style
    I'm still not feeling that great
    And then it's in soft-focus all around you
    You can't see the football game
    On my dad's sofa, we are still, and we never look at our phones anymore
    Instrumental (5:25 - 6:39)
    Part II (6:39 - 7:51)
    Oh, I can't think of anything better
    Pick a hair off my sweater
    And drown in me
    Like boyfriend jeans
    Oh, I haven't felt this way in, like ever
    I am the convo, you are the weather
    And the clamp is a cracked smile cheek
    And it tortures me
    I haven't felt this way in, like ever
    I am the convo, you are the weather
    And the clamp is a cracked smile cheek
    And it tortures me
    Instrumental (7:51 - 9:46)
    Part III (9:46 - end)
    In my bedsheets, now wet
    Of Charlie, I pray to forget
    All I've been forms the drone, we sing the rest
    Oh, your generous loan to me, your crippling interest
    And my bedsheets, now wet
    Of Charlie, I pray to forget
    All I've been forms the drone, we sing the rest
    Oh, your generous loan to me, your crippling interest
    Oh, in my bedsheets, now wet
    Of Charlie, I pray to forget
    All I've been forms the drone, we sing the rest

    This album has not even been out for a week, yet I have come to the conclusion that this is definitely one of my favourite albums of all time. Their first record blew me away, but this one takes things up to a thousand. This song right here brings the whole album together, it completes it and makes the album feel like an adventure. Encompassing various melodies from previous songs and then the last few moment having the melody from the first song, looping the album and connecting the ends together. This song literally brought upon the albums existence too. The melancholic last few minutes with the crushing guitars makes me sob super hard every time, this album came out at a point of my life that is right now extremely difficult and probably one of the hardest it's ever been for me. Which makes this album that more special to me. Knowing that Isaac left the band 5 days before the release makes everything that more emotionally impactful too. Thank you so much, BC,NR

    As many other people are saying: thank you. This album has given me more life than I could’ve imagined. I’ve been sharing the songs with as many people as possible just to show the world the beauty that is this band. I’ve cried multiple times listening to it. I could go on and on about every single aspect of this album, but I won’t. I’ll just say this again: thank you.

    What an experience, what a great way to close a spectacular album. Such passion and care and thought is shown throughout these songs. The arrangements, the orchestration and the musicianship from all of you is stellar. Isaac's pen and pathos will be sorely missed, but what a triumphant way to go. Whish you all the very best.

    Concorde flies in my room
    Tears the house to shreds
    Defines the night as such:
    A home for us, stick insects
    And leaves no trace of luck
    At every market town that we intersect
    I die like fifteen times
    A dark blue stem brings me to their breast
    And I'm feeling kinda normal with a packed lunch
    Train rides don't hurt much these days
    We're all working on ourselves
    And we're praying that the rest don't mind how much we've changed
    So if you see me looking strange with a fresh style
    I'm still not feeling that great
    And then it's in soft focus all around you
    You can't see the football game
    On my dad's sofa we are still
    And we never look at our phones anymore
    Oh, I can't think of anything better
    Pick a hair off my sweater
    And drown in me
    Like boyfriend jeans
    Oh, I haven't felt this way in like ever
    I am the convo, you are the weather
    And the clamp is a cracked smile cheek
    And it tortures me
    I haven't felt this way in like ever
    I am the convo, you are the weather
    And the clamp is a cracked smile cheek
    And it tortures me
    In my bed sheets now wet
    Of Charlie I pray to forget
    All I've been forms the drone
    We sing the rest
    Ah, your generous loan to me
    Your crippling interest
    In my bed sheets now wet
    Of Charlie I pray to forget
    All I've been forms the drone
    We sing the rest
    Ah, your generous loan to me
    Your crippling interest
    In my bed sheets now wet
    Of Charlie I pray to forget
    All I've been forms the drone
    We sing the rest
    Ah, your generous loan to me
    Your crippling interest
