about

I was in Tori Amos mania for a few months in lockdown, especially that song Crucify which I love the rhythm of. Any music that makes people cringe or feel embarrassed I really like, and that was pretty much the spirit of writing Hell on Bent Street. I wanted to grab onto the stomach flip excitement of not giving a shit and escaping in this tune, one for people who like to thrash their headphones. There were a few little kooky recording moments on this tune, the drums turned out the way they are because Holly flipped the kit so she could fit two extra floor toms in, and also I think had a sack of money on her snare to make it jangle.

lyrics

Take me with you
Let me alone
I’ll be your friend
I want a home

Cos I’m hell bent
I’m hell bent
I’m

I’m gonna let him touch me
Even though he is foul
I feel I am a cannon
Point me out the window now

Now I’m hell bent
I’m hell bent
I’m hell bent
I’m

I was your patience, but you lost me
Now I’m wearing thin
I’m wearing thin, I’m wearing thin
I’m wearing thin

Refrain *All you’re gonna want to do is get back there


We Float – PJ Harvey

We wanted to find love
We wanted success
Until nothing was enough
Until my middle name was excess
And somehow I lost touch
When you went out of sight
When you got lost into the city
Got lost into the night

I was in need of help
Heading to black out
'Til someone told me run on in honey
Before somebody blows your goddam' brains out
You shop-lifted as a child
I had a model's smile
You carried all my hopes
Until something broke inside

But now we float
Take life as it comes

So will we die of shock?
Die without a trial
Die on Good Friday
While holding each other tight
This is kind of about you
This is kind of about me
We just kind of lost our way
But we were looking to be free

But one day we'll float
Take life as it comes

about

Georgia Knight image

Georgia Knight Melbourne, Australia

Georgia Knight is known for her resonant vocal range which can change in an instant from ear-whisperingly close to frenzied thrash. Her guitar playing style is similar, with uninhibited chords recognisable in a cover of Big Star’s ‘Kanga Roo’ on an out-of-tune 12 string.
Knight’s roots span trad-folk to grunge, citing Nina Simone, Sandy Denny and instrumental trio Dirty Three as influences. ... more
