We all have that friend we don't know why we still invite
so abrasive, kinda racist, always wants to fight
mine's the worst you'll ever have to meet
charming, clueless, asshole, call him Pete
If normal Pete is jekyll then I guess his Mr. Hyde
is a dope-ass dude who loves to dance that he tries to keep inside
the sun goes down and we begin to drink
and that's when he turns into Boogie Pete
Get a Drink in Pete, he's a dance machine, he can go all night
if he's not yet buzzed then you'll wish he was he's the kind of guy
when he shows up the night has just begun...
he's always talkin' shit, never sayin' sorry
normal Pete's an asshole, Boogie Pete's a party
When he's sober he's so selfish, never looking out
but Boogie Pete's the wingman we write folk legends about
he's got no time to waste on trying to score
'cause when the beat drops, Pete stops cold - and hits the floor
Get a Drink in Pete, he's a dance machine, he can go all night
if he's not yet buzzed then you'll wish he was he's the kind of guy
when he shows up the night has just begun...
he's always talkin' shit, never sayin' sorry
normal Pete's an asshole, Boogie Pete's a party
And normal Pete says: "Dude I hate babies"
and normal Pete says: "Have you seen my vape?"
and normal Pete says: "Dude I can kick your ass in FIFA"
But Boogie Pete, when they see him:
oh men wanna be him, and women wanna be him
and babies wanna be him, and orphans wanna be him
Koreans wanna be him, Europeans wanna be him
and even people who don't wanna be him wanna be him...
And we're all agreein'!
Get a Drink in Pete, he's a dance machine, he can go all night
if he's not yet buzzed then you'll wish he was he's the kind of guy
when he shows up the night has just begun...
he's always talkin' shit, never sayin' sorry
normal Pete's an asshole, Boogie Pete's a party
he's always talkin' shit, never sayin' sorry
normal Pete's an asshole, Boogie Pete's a party

I love this album because it seamlessly combines a spoken word narrative with music. I love how sonically diverse it is!
I also love the fact that, even though the album is about a very specific life experience, the album contains emotions that feel very universal. Overall, it's a great listen. elainachristine
A solarpunk concept album set in the not-too-distant tomorrow, Tom John Hall uses elegantly wrought art rock to tell a winding tale. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 25, 2023
Bright, gorgeous, bashing songs from these Belgian shoegazers that never lose track of melody amidst the waves of distortion. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 23, 2023

Found this through my poor Spotify trying desperately to find what I might like to listen to. Not at all my normal type of music but it actually made me stop and listen. Delightful from beginning to end. It's gone onto my DAP to become part of my normal rotation of music. vonvanna
