Shooting Rockets

Swan Lake is a Canadian indie supergroup[citation needed] comprising Carey Mercer of Frog Eyes and Blackout Beach, Daniel Bejar of Destroyer, Hello, Blue Roses and The New Pornographers, and Spencer Krug of Wolf Parade, Sunset Rubdown and Frog Eyes. Originally playing under the moniker "Thunder Cloud", the group changed it to Swan Lake after discovering the previous name was already taken. The band released their debut album Beast Moans on November 21, 2006 through Jagjaguwar. The album was named by Mercer, after Krug described the sound as "a boar dying in a tar pit". more »

"Caution: Hot Ashes"
The girl says to her first kiss
They stuck eternity inside a bird's fist just to watch it fly
Just to make it go!
Just to let things slip away!
Don't ask me how I know, I just do
Night Surgeon dons his robes to take apart a fellow amateur!
You may have heard it said one gives what one gets
Well, I didn't go out into the world
Just to be stung by a rich man's hornets
Who amongst us has left these things undone
And who let these animals into my kingdom?
A blind doe learns to work the rig
A once-thin man turns into a pig
The endless groves wherein my soul pukes the night away
