The Corner Booth (feat. Hunter Leigh Allen)

from If We Have a Future by LONE KODIAK

/
  • 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

Married myself to the sound, never slowed down
Never had a doubt
Carried myself like a star, seven feet tall
Turn everything to gold
Threw myself into the sound, committed to the loud
The rock the fuck out
I bled and broke strings and broke hearts, reveled in the dark
A creature of the art

Saw you make a run for the corner booth
Now I'm singing my songs to an empty room
Thought you'd wanna hear what I wrote for you
But I'm singing my songs to an empty room

Buried myself in the songs, never built a life
Couldn't keep a job
My melodies helped me with the hurt, brush off all the dirt
Get up and carry on
So why would I bother showing up for work? A paycheck and a shirt?
"How may I help you, sir? No.
You can't fire me, I quit!
The system is rigged to keep the rich rich."

Saw you make a run for the corner booth
Now I'm singing my songs to an empty room
Thought you'd wanna hear what I wrote for you
But I'm singing my songs to an empty room

Wrote it all down from the heart
Little bit of anger, lotta fucking love
Never had a clue where to start
Just put the thing to paper, let it fall apart
Pipe dreams, fantasies all, don't tell me about the odds
This thing is catching on or I'll sleep out on the streets with my guitar
Money in a jar playing music for the lost

Saw you make a run for the corner booth
Now I'm singing my songs to an empty room
Thought you'd wanna hear what I wrote for you
But I'm singing my songs to an empty room
