But My Heart 03:44

Caught between the fabric of what is and what should be You live a life so silent alone, together, so desperately A thousand dreams, a thousand nights A thousand days, a thousand lies Now you!

Nothing Better Than Fun 02:45

All the things… You Leave Undone Counting what can’t be counted Ain’t Nothing… Better than fun In this Life… The only one Nothing Better… Better Than Fun

about

Wherein we find one's band (still) alive in 21st Century flyover USA, trying to lead the better life despite swimming in a gyre of political, social, economic, gastric, automotive, procreative turbulence, wondering how we got here, there, everywhere(?!), all the while searching for a safe bunker or at least friendly stages.

It's hard not to laugh.
Or cry.
Easier still to just shut down.
Not care.

We choose, instead, to "...endeavor to persevere..."
And make this music.

Love songs, actually. 'Cause, when you get down to it, there truly is nothing better than fun. Regardless of what the new King says, or does, our hearts will never die. As long as we have love.

Rock this. LOUD!

And, VOTE.

JLTAB created its righteous, explosive hornblastinggaragepowerpoppunk from an undisclosed bunker outside flyover LFK, then launched it all for the greater peoples of the world to rejoice in, gyrate & libate and generally have gobs of fun.

Trouble, plain and simple.
But, folks, we're here for such a short time—Let the Party Begin
