Spent everyday in Dekalb arcades
And I hid everything that I heart betrayed
From me
This final dragnet adventure could have been so blind
If only just for one day I could smash through time
And hold it deep within my heart
And yet I feel just like a ghost I'm just a moment in time
And this nothing's gonna take me away
Forever in Dekalb arcades
And oh God And when I die
I'm just a moment in time
And there's nothing gonna take me away
Forever in Dekalb arcades
And yet I feel just like a ghost
I'm just a moment in time
And this nothing's gonna take me away
Forever in Dekalb arcades
And oh God And when I die
I'm just a moment in time
And there's nothing gonna take me away
Forever in Dekalb arcades
And maybe I'm so blind
And maybe I'm losing my mind
And maybe I'm so blind
And maybe I'm losing my mind

Back when ID Under played at Batteries Not Included
Me and Kevin got booted
Drinking underage
When I saw Soulside at Club Dreamerz and the world got stupid
How did we get so stupid?
Was it all the rage?
So Goddamn Pierre!
Why’d you leave us here
In a moment we could all use some New Dreams
So Goddamn Pierre!
Can you feel this too?
In a moment we are all Vanilla Blue
We are all Vanilla Blue
We are all Vanilla Blue

Doleful Lions Chicago, Illinois
Doleful Lions are one the great lost bands of modern times, its not an under achiever thing rather more that they’ve been constantly overlooked in favour of ensembles, fads and fashions less musically astute and considerably less talented, always occupying their own little orbit shying away from the various bandwagons that have come passing them by - Mark Barton (The Sunday Experience) ... more
Doleful Lions recommends:
Save For A Rainy Day
by Jan & Dean
The first twee pop album from November 1966. I listened to this a lot when I wrote and recorded Song Cyclops.

Cry All The Time
by Impulsive Hearts
My favorite Chicago release so far this year. Blurry 60s girl group songs with tons of emotion. Favorite song EXODUS EVENING COMPANY.

by Cinco de Gatos
My mid nineties band has reformed!

The members of Big Slice rubbed shoulders with Britpop legends like Suede & Echobelly—no surprise when you hear their radiant, hooky songs.

Market, from Melbourne, fuse soul and chillwave on a wonderfully woozy song with rubbery guitars & breathy harmonies.

An easy-to-love combination of emo and jangle pop, the first full album from Spirit Night in eight years feels bathed in a golden glow.
