So Hollow 04:32
You are a cold air blue Humming throughout the room Pushing the deep away Chemicals inundate Hide in shallows Your skin so hollow I’m spitting honey Downspin to holes of love In shimmer’s hold The sweet breathing through blue decay Hide in shallows Your skin so hollow (You might be something I’m missing)
2.
I’ll be around for some time Left just blowin in the breeze Keeping pieces of you with me A fraction too divine I run in circles with you You’re floating in the bayside And I’m just waiting to capsize To draw a silhouette of you’s like  I mistook the channel for a riptide I run in circles with you  Spin me around, crystallized Spin me around, crystallized Spin me around, crystallized Caught me speeding down the freeway And I can’t keep my eyes off you I’ll be around for some time Runnin circles with you  Spin me around, crystallized Spin me around, crystallized Spin me around, crystallized
3.
Sugar 03:15
Washed the amber fade away, you fade away, fade away Shudders, caves, and fades away Who can take you carelessly? Stay away, stay away Will you lock me in my cage? When my world collides with the satellite of your skies When my world collides with the satellite of your skies Satellite of your skies Satellite of your skies It’s the sugar in her eyes When my world collides with the satellite of your skies When my world collides with the satellite of your skies Satellite of your skies Satellite of your skies Sheltered in her heaven’s hate, you fade away, fade away Supernova, fade away Who can take you carelessly? Stay away, stay away Will you haunt my rival days?

Tumbleweed 07:46
You stay a hundred miles away but you’re right here            Away, further from the spaces you can’t see Stumbling out to cross the line I’m chasing second hand smoke Drive me away, don’t take me home Leave me waiting for something more Stumbling out to cross the line I’m chasing second hand smoke Drive me away, don’t take me home Leave me waiting for something more You stay a hundred miles away but you’re right here Between the glow that’s sweetened so and what is real Stumbling out to cross the line I’m chasing second hand smoke Drive me away, don’t take me home Leave me waiting for something more Kept me at bay for far too long I’m taking back what I’m owed Bringing us back to where it was Keep me fighting for something more I wanna hear your way For the drug of ten thousand days

about

On “A Wishful Thing”, Broken Head is joined by new team members: drummer Evan White and studio producer, Trevor Reilly. The two help to bring out even more rhythm and dynamic from Broken Head’s already infectious choruses and melodies. On “A Wishful Thing”, Broken Head continue to shine in their ’90s alternative-rock sonic influences from Catherine Wheel, Swervedriver, etc. Rob and Alessio’s dual vocals continue to harmonize through the tracks, backed by their well-studied guitar tones, creating the perfect rhythms to get stuck in your head.

Producer Trevor Reilly allows the band to perform their sound well, tracking a more pristine and less polished recording. And while only four tracks, “A Wishful Thing” comes in at nearly 20 minutes. Broken Head is confident and comfortable in these songs, and as a listener, these minutes easily pass by and instantly begin to repeat.
