"Indiana Line" is a hard driving stomp through the gothic tinges of the post Romantic, post Industrial American Heartland. Let out the clutch and give it a ride!
Crow Follow guests rising talent Ruby Viens for a poetic counterpunch on this barn burner.
lyrics
Leaden slate gray clouds stack up over the the horizon line
A thin chalk like line of white smoke
Rises from the long black tiparillo shaped chimney
Of a Midwestern meth factory
Deciding just how far we go
Echoes on the Red Velvet Radio
Sickle Moon Indiana line
Pushing 18 wheels and i'm doing fine
37 tons double yellow line
I'm gonna see my baby tonite
She said I, well I love you
Can you hear me knocking
She said I, well I love you
Sword swallower, Apocalypse
Tarantella on a rail yard switch
There's a lonely tree in a cornfield fire
Skeleton twisting on one thin wire
A red heart burn in those cavernous eyes
I'm gonna see my baby tonite
She said I, well I love you
Can you hear me knocking
She said I, well I love you
Rust red river runs up your thigh
Corn doll baby on a gravel pile
Stockyard pond with an icy crust
Coyote stands in the blowing dust
Broken Chevy turns it will never start
My baby cries open up your heart
She said I, well I love you
Can you hear me knocking
She said I, well I love you
Can you hear me knock
She said I, well I love you
Can you hear me knocking
She said I, I, I, well I love you
Can you hear me knock
Broken down barn and a rusty shed
Two skeletons lie on a dusty bed
Ribcage heart is a burning red
My baby's love is a never dead
She said I, well I love you
knocking
She said I, I, I, well I love
Can you hear me knocking
She said I, well I love you
Can you hear me knock
She said I, well I love you
Can you hear me knocking
She said I, I, I, well I love you
Can you hear me knock
She said I, well I love you
Can you hear me knocking
She said I, well I love you
Can you hear me knock
She said I, well I love you
Can you hear me you
Can you hear me knock
That's what I'm talking about

Crow Follow’s shaman rock and urban cabaret brings glowing brightness to the darkest tunes.
Risen from the
vibe of a diverse and energetic music scene in Boston MA, Crow Follow celebrates and transcends it. Their DNA is from the Art Rock, Low Rock, and Post Punk scenes of the late 20th century, filtered through the usual smoldering warehouses and sketchy sugar shacks of the American Hinterland....more
