    This is the 4-song debut EP from JTT, the friendliest punks and finest badminton players of beautiful Corvallis, Oregon. They play gruff, melodic punk rock that sometimes borders on the folky-bluesy. The songwriting is sharp and sincere with bleakly beautiful lyrics (or the other way around, I don't know). Think Springsteen playing a DIY show among friends at a 4th of July barbecue, because that's kind of what it was like the first time we saw these guys. A year later, we couldn't be more stoked to put out this 7" for them. This is a run of 300 -- 200 on black vinyl and 100 coke bottle clear.

my mind is growing younger but my bodys growing older all the time i can swing these uphill battles but im fighting wars I know cant be won this whole town is trying to pound me into malleable material and I thought somehow wed be different exempt from the hysteria youre lying with the cowards hiding in the cellar while the rest of them are leaving in search of better weather wont wait around here for forever the days are getting shorter and this house is growing colder all the time i can see your breath so clearly fog the windows as we drive along the five winters on its way to send this valley into shivers and the wood begins to swell just like your body and your liver birds all know its coming leave their dead along the river while the rest of them are leaving in search of better weather wont wait around here for forever

Letter Home 01:55
cornered and broken ive spent the last seven days trying to figure out what happened how things ever got this way you call me out of the blue to tell me things I know are lies swallow pride and grimace as my heart shrinks down to size i aint forgotten that saying sorrys not your style that its easier to hide away pretend noones looking for you letters pile up until its hard to see the floors your body takes up notice and the hate weighs more and more dear dear dad dont write me anymore a steel town death is calling and theres angels at your door off of parole at forty five but it don’t mean a thing youre still every bit the child you aint grown up since seventeen go on and blame it on your father as if it takes a spine but its shitty beer and cigarettes to pass away your time

Lies 01:54
we had some good times but looking back I cant recall what kept me up on edge half inviting curtain call id say it was all clearer now id say i know whats true but truth is im still blind as hell once my thoughts turn to you there was this tabby looking cat wouldnt let me come near i looked in from a distance not unlike the past few years fierce and quick and clever escaping on her own leaving me to trust youd find the strength to come back home it breaks my heart every time i close my eyes you wanna hear im over you but i dont wanna lie it breaks my heart every day and every night still i cant confess i guess you were fucking right another night of walking these cracked streets all alone lost in conversation but impressing on me a sense that everything would be fine if you were here i could eat i could sleep i could fight these tears

he never thought itd come to this his neighbors thought it was amiss for seven days the papers piled high when they found him he was bundled in with his best coat and a pint of gin staring at the wall with drunken eyes the glasses spilled around him on the table there was a smell so thick you had to close your eyes they took his body out boarded the house from the outside forgot his name then went about their lives she was a film star from the golden age when every old man in town knew her name kept clippings on the wall that yellowed and decayed and as she grew on she lost her place theres no room for you in this day and age fame faded and bled into the fray now theres an absence growing inside her like a cancer is that the point of growing old before you go you can heal your bodys wounds wear the scars the best you can hold them up and make your presence known you gotta hold yourself up and make your presence known
