Record/Vinyl + Digital Album
Pressed on a special premium color blend of waxes, no two limited copies of our debut album "If We Have a Future" are the same. Inside is an insert with exclusive photos, lyrics, album credits, and other info.

Written and recorded between 2021 and 2023, this is the debut album from LA rock staples Lone Kodiak. Produced by Kyle Mangels, recorded at Big Bad Sound and Sleep as Time Travel in Los Angeles, "If We Have a Future" features contributions from Hunter Leigh Allen of Chase Petra (vocals), Emily Tooraen of Tchotchke (vocals), Chloe Fuller (vocals), Vanessa Eagerton (vocals), Chris Cribb (piano), and Kevin the dog (vocals).

The recording is modeled after the band's live performance which the vinyl format features prominently with very few breaks and one song often blending into the next.

The artwork features a scene shot my Sean Martin from singer/guitarist Dainéal Parker's wedding in the Scottish Highlands which the band attended. In fact, bassist Daniel Alden was the best man and drummer Josh Harris was the handfasting rope bearer.

lyrics

It's not like you'll recognize me
It's not like you'll kiss my cheek
It's not like you'll give a cold shoulder
But it's not like you gonna sing

So I'll find the dog in the corner
"Say, aren't you a precious thing?"
Then I'll make my way out the back door
Without saying goodbye to my friends

Might find a place for a hot meal
If I can find somewhere to sleep
Relying on kindness from strangers
Has never been easy for me
Choosing between shame and hunger
While I wash my clothes in the sink
I hear the voice of my father
Say "What would your mother think?"

What would your mother think?

Uneasy Laughter
by MOANING

supported by 4 fans who also own “Cold Shoulder”

Moaning have crafted a brilliantly focused, dissonantly beautiful, and a detachedly deep album. I often ask myself while listening to it, what if young Radiohead had made a post-punk record after The Bends instead of OK Computer? It's that good. Whatever genre this album belongs to, it transcends it and that is always the mark if a true artistic accomplishment. Andru A.
