Remember when it seemed so simple
Well I remember, and those were the days
Back then, it seemed impossible
But I could chop down my enemies
Those were the days
Those were the-
The past can always seem better than the future
It's what the palm readers left untold
Flip through the polaroids
The memories escape me
And i still miss them
Those were the days
Those were the days
Someone release me
Come and release me now
Someone release me
Come and release me now
Because I'd rather die than hear your battle cry
This is not a test - release me
Because it's almost gone
And it’s time to move on
This is not a test - release me
Instantly developed, the emphasis has changed
I'm forced to focus on what's unknown
Flashbacks and old friends
They analyze revise me
There's been mistakes I've made and
Those were the days
Those were the days
Those were the days
Because I'd rather die than hear your battle cry
This is not a test - release me
Because it's almost gone
And it’s time to move on
This is not a test - release me

Boston post-punk outfit Junk Ranchers broke up in 1986 before this, their debut album, was released; darkly melodic, it's a long-lost gem. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 22, 2020
Searing psych-rock from this Boston group that doubles down on gnarled, biting riffs, topping them with spaced-out vocal lines. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 16, 2019
