From Surf Rock is Dead:
The name “drama” came to us when reflecting on the EP and thinking “wow, we sound dramatic as hell on these songs, don’t we?” “drama” conveys more moods and feels than our previous work —like that sinking feeling knowing that it’s time to end a relationship; old friendships in despair; hyper-irrational crushes; and losing one’s sense of identity–all voiced on the EP.
We’re covering such a big range of emotions, “drama” just felt right. There’s also something about the iconic symbol of drama, the laughing and crying masks that represents the spectrum of emotion — beautiful and kind of creepy at the same time. Maybe just like the EP?

“tough love” is about a strange time when my (Kevin's) sister was going through a real rough patch in her life and I was there to witness some of it. I think NYC was getting the best of her (as it tends to) and she ended up ultimately leaving to now be living a beautiful life on a farm with a partner and 4 dogs. The song is like a vignette of a rally call to someone you love that’s seen better days and trying to push them out of their dark place. Things might be not so great now, but they will get better :).
lyrics
Found ya lying there
With a funny look and frizzy matted hair
Dizzy eyed and unaware
As if you’ve been in bed all afternoon
I saw
From that moment
Your boy
Took you home and
I know
You’re not a kid no more
Now he’s
Gone and dried up
Now you’re
Bout to give up
I know what I said before
But you’re
Fucking up
Tough love
Ain’t enough
You’ll never be
In my way
The reaper came but not today
So say it with me now
You’re enough
Your mom wants
You to go back
I want
You to throwback
To that girl
With that glow in her eyes
I saw
From that moment
Your boy
Took you home and
I know
You’re not a kid no more
But you’re
Fucking up
Tough Love
Ain’t enough
You’ll never be
In my way
The reaper came but not today
So say it with me now
You’re enough
I hope that now you see
You have much more than all your life’s debris

really enjoying the album but I ordered a CD and it came in broken. I've been trying to find a way to see if I can get any help with this from a support page on spirit goth but I can't find it secretearth917
The Seams' jangly pop is full of lovely melodic twists and elegant turns-of-phrases delineating the quotidian details of love and romance. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 5, 2018
