  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    This is the double LP set, and it’s what we envisioned from the start as the best way to experience this album. It comes in a gatefold jacket, with an insert and a sticker, all tucked in to a poly bag. Side four (or side Salvage, as we call it) contains a bonus track unavailable anywhere else: our version of Robert Johnson’s “They’re Red Hot.”

lyrics

I'm telling the truth in a diner booth
I'll say a few things that I hope you won't repeat
From this Formica fort, it's an indoor sport
I'm holding court in this Kitchen of Pete
The air is too thin and the sky is too dry
And the ball carries too far
Is there powder on the slopes? Is the ice killing your hopes?
Do you need a hand pushing out your car?

But wait, just wait
It's all been a terrible mistake

I found something strange at Jerry's Record Exchange
Between the Righteous Brothers and the Strolling Bones
Through the window I seen I just missed the 15
So I went out on the pavement on my own
Mile High this and Mile High that
An avenue of bad puns
As to the length of old Colfax, it is according to cold facts
The longest but for all the longer ones

We all know of course about the snorting horse
Who's got the city's heart locked in a football hold
But you should keep in mind that old rainbow skyline
And the pick axe always digging for gold
To coin a riff, that guy's a stiff
He's slower than most men
He's what we got, let's lace 'em up, it's long past time to face 'em up
And make those miracles happen once again

"Northern California's Collisionville fuses a loud, post-punk sound with down-home Americana to create sardonically sincere songs that are well put together and streaked with the humor that eludes more self-serious bands." Eliot Van Buskirk, Wired Magazine ... more
