Apologies, I Have None release album art, new 7″ record details, and lyrics for two new songs

British rockers Apologies, I Have None recently just got out of the studio where they had been recording two new songs for their upcoming 7″.

The songs Sat In Vicky Park and Joiners And Windmills are expected to be made available prior to their tour with Rooftops in April. The lyrics for those two songs as well as the the album artwork were released today. Click here to check them out.

In addition to the two new songs they recorded, they re-recorded their songs Re-arranging the Dust and Apologies, I Have One as a 4 piece.

This band is pretty cool. Their sound and style remind me of Crime EP-era Against Me! where it was just Tom Gabel on guitars and Kevin Mahon on the drums.

Check their Dying Scene shows page for more information on tour dates. Their latest release, Two Sticks and Six Strings, was released on March 19, 2009.

Sat In Vicky Park
Give me east london summer, give me under the radar and i’m done. My name is no longer low level worker i’m gone. Where bank accounts have no weight, where the 26 takes me all the way past landlords and managers, where i only move in straight lines forward now. I only move in straight lines forward now. And i’m taking this lesson with me – the worst mistake to make is to be afraid to make mistakes – and i can’t believe this took so long to learn, it should be so obvious. Like a man cannot be measured by the number of people he’s fucked, like numbers on a payslip are no indication of worth. My relationship with reality, it comes and goes and we rarely see eye to eye.

Joiners and Windmills
I can hear it all from outside, the choked up sounds of another night. I’m breathing deep through clenched teeth, watching my steps carefully. These concrete slabs and kurb cuts are looking more familiar by now and the words escape me, I can’t drag them up to say “I’m sorry”. There’s no excuses. We had such high hopes but it’s always difficult to keep everything balanced, to not leave anything behind. It’s so hard to fall apart when there’s nowhere you’d rather land, so this is it: the choices that we made, like not giving up just yet. I’m not giving up. Sometimes what it takes is to listen to what you say and try to hear it, to try to feel it.
