Koufax

Post by Sufjan Stevens »

You all should look into Koufax. Not the baseball player on the Dedgers in the 1960s, but the band. They're on Vagrant, and they're really good. They have a different sound to them, and I can't get enough of it.

Look into:
Satuday's Alone
Offering Advice
Let Us Know
Break It Off
Minor Chords
Social Life

Yeah, make me happy and download their songs. There's somehting about having an organ in music that makes it terribly catchy, and if you people listen to it, you would make me terribly happy. So download it.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

they opened for get up kids. they were good.
we are the brand new beatniks. we are the down and outers.
we are the bleeding hearts, beating syncopated, broken rhythm.
our speed is often break neck. we need to slow it down.
tired of being sleepless. tired of being broken.

Yeah, I missed The Get Up Kids show, and now Koufax is on a world tour, so I won't be seeing them for a long while. They're gonna be in Europe for a while, and that really sucks. They release a new album on Oct. 22 and they don't come to Detroit to support it.

Koufax is pretty good. I like the song Minor Chords and It Had to do with Love.
don't look now, just keep watching the TV hating what's too see waiting for someone to say something that's right.
