cool.cooler.cooper.

i've got no need for open roads
'cause all i own fits on my back
i see the world from rusted trains
and always know i won't be back

'cause all my life is wrapped up in today
no past or future here
if i find my name's no good
i just fall out of line

but i miss you
but there's no comin' home
there's no comin' home
with a name like mine
i still think of you
but everyone knows
yeah everyone knows
if you can, let it go

i seen more places than i can name
and over time they all start to look the same
but it ain't that truth we chase
no, it's the promise of a better place

i`m quite sure ben cooper have been taken his well-deserved place on bandscheibenrecords in earlier times yet. nevertheless in great anticipation on the basis of an optinally munich setting in february 2012 i will not keep that back from you music enthusiasts. his band radical face brought us back another welcome lp `the family tree:the roots` during the year 2011. currently his latest achievement "ghost town", another marked-down folk-/indieopop hybrid gives proof of his unbelievable talent of a never dying soulmate.



one of my personal outstanding favourite based on this usofa artist, a heart-warming and embracing lofi- reduced indiepop nugget "wrapped in piano strings" (download via soundcloud-link), whose sentimental skateboard video atmosphere is simple brilliant fitted as well as significant for a perfect way of life. without words. oh well! nearly.

i saw your father in the hall
his ghost is living in the walls

i heard him crying while you slept
i heard him breaking things after you left

i watched you crawl into my bed
with curses spilling from your head
you said "we're just the walking dead"
so i pulled the trigger and we floated...
