I'm so close to haunting you
The sand in your eyelid, The pebble in your shoe
I'll be a shadow still over you
The unblinking stare from the corner of your room
I don't care if you feel a chill
Long as it's my chill
I'm so close to prevalence
A word in every sentence, a post in every fence
A part of me everywhere
'Til you can't escape my warm breath in your hair
I will make your hair stand on end
Stand to my ends
'Cause you've been pulling me
Your marionette strings have been making me do things
As your fingers pluck me this way
And then that way
I can't get you out of my head
Tossing and turning in my grave of a bed
I'm so set on haunting you
'Cause that's all you've done to me, turning the screw
And your silhouette beats its wings
'Til it shapes me
But I won't be outdone, I'll shape you too
I'll fill up the room
All of your furniture and carpet space
Will map out my face
I'm so close to haunting you
A brick through your window
A nail through your shoe, oh...

it's another way to keep sterile
or it's a hand you've got to try and marry off.
But I know that there's a floor waiting.
It's a catch the size of New Amsterdam.
When I'm done with my cigarette,
I'll be sure as divinity.
You can tell the carpet's stolen.
You can feel it when the heat blows over.
I come ambling out to stop traffic
Before the dew arrives and dries later.
When the street is a cabaret
and the stars spin in pirhouettes
and the sun swings in his arabesque
I'll dance like a fool with thread like a screw
you can't steal any laws or break any falls.

Living With Hermits Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Justin Bowsher makes music that ranges from finger-picky folk to tweaked out funktronica. Entirely self-produced, Bowsher tends to focus more on the recordings than on the songs, themselves, though the songs are strong.
Living With Hermits recommends:
a day of Death, a day of Birth, a chasing after the Wind
by Absalom Absalom
they have amazing arrangements that are the result of hours of bickering and nit-picking. Bowsher's first producer/engineer credit as hired help.

Justin had the honor of producing and engineering this EP, and ended up joining the band as a bass player.

Nomads, Pilgrims
by Samuel Lockridge
Lockridge is a fantastic performer. This entire record was in his head, ready to go on tape; Justin had only to try to keep up with him. Fantastic folk confessional.

Lost At The Party
by Terry Malts
On “Lost at the Party,” Terry Malts trade their marauding pop-punk for dark, mature pop. The result is their best record to date.
go to album
Mellow, breezy indie pop filigreed with Fender Rhodes and slide guitar from Melbourne's Cool Sounds.
go to album
Just like their band name implies, Cool Sounds lightly baroque indie pop is like candy for the ears.
