westford
An awesome balance of Rock, Emo, Punk, and Pop. *And Rock N Roll/Happy Teenagers Killing People
Tony: "Westford is a group of young musicians, who have a passion for writing and playing an outstanding mix of rock, pop, and emo." Jake: "I'm going to be the evil genius that starts this as a full band interview. Haha. Let me clarify that what we play is not LYRICALLY emo! I personally choose not to be assosciated with sociopathic softy-punk kleenex rock. Musically we may not be Napalm Death, but our live shows are still nuts, so don't be deterred by labels!"

Story behind the song
Jake: "I wanted it to be almost beatles-esque, where you can tell it's a song about something sh*tty, but you HAVE to sing along and bob your head. In summary, 'Akrasia' is a greek word for weakness of will. There IS a real story, but I'd rather skip the teenage politics...Writers should leave a little challenge in their lyrics. I personally feel it's become a little too "Highscool Poetry 101" lately...you know?"
Lyrics
let's talk about the life of listening it's got corners; its performer's know the high ropes so choosing bruises leaves us lots to fucking write about hey, i'm writing home about how someday...someday they say, 'pause.' gauze got me fondling wish for human being on the screen win, win, ten to one. tend to one. wind up, wind up, now the line: "if and when, love. a wish, love. hallelujah! definition; feels fucking fine..." now who's missing me? found out ways to say you would cut corners for a day plain english finished me the photo fucking finish of the century yeah, now who's missing me? tan nocturnal man smiles upon the bulbs that desiring pushed away again i, comfort, am a model of a mogul...to which no one compares [smiles upon the bulbs, that desiring pushed away. just like my heart in my fucking hand]
