Undergroundhero Bands seem to come and go all of the time these days, without having anything unique or original to say. In the past couple of years, some music magazines were writing off indie rock as dead. It is 2013, and the press is wrong....

Rock Bass is an excellent
indie band from Morgantown, West Virginia. They consist of talented musicians & writers. Their quality also matches the artistry. "Garbles", may be one of the best indie releases of 2013. Listen to Rock Bass, and see why!

1.
A part of me is hovering and part of me is awake Quit acting all presidential and I'll quit making this face. My Thinking Parts They're all broken down There's something so familiar about all this Something about a pet name and a to-do list You think that everything's peachy At that big house where the rich kids live I'll turn right The worlds worst procrastinator could never put this off But now you've waited two long years... don't forget to turn the lights off
2.
We Both Do 02:26
If there could be only one Way to get to where you are I'd rent a car, steal a boat, hop a train, take plane Get lost and try again Is it me It could be you Maybe it's something that we both do Take a letter, Give me a call Don't wait and do nothing at all You gotta fight Time will show us what's in store Choices are plenty, but what's more Important in the end A Graceful fall or aloof blame You gotta fight to be heard No one will notice us for what its worth
3.
Phil 03:02
Nothing is lost on me and my responsibility Someone has got to do what I do I'm just one in a line of few When I get up roll out of bed Pick a number floating in my head They pull me out and greet the day Look around... oh shit Six more weeks of winter I wiggle back into my tree Take a nap, get up to pee They say I'm tough and I agree But whats a brine... oh shit They're going to stew me up for dinner Didn't we do this like yesterday It's so familiar in so many ways The same old song, the same routine What's that I see... oh shit Six more weeks of winter
4.
Bury 02:48
Broken down into smaller pieces everything seems to fit Not the whole, but the sum of the parts I guess I'm fine with it But I wanna bury these things that strangle me I wanna bury them whole Bury these things that dont mean a thing And learn to let them go Time not together I'm torn apart Thinking only of you Patience rapidly leaves my heart overwhelmed and blue
5.
Killing It 02:14
Through all the worrying and the pissing around There has got to be a better way I'll be here keeping time with the ones Who know exactly what to say You say it's dumb, I say it's fun You say you'll never be the one I can't argue with that I said hey (hey) There's no stopping us now You'll have to wait until we come back down I say hey (hey) There's no stopping us now Just sit and watch while we're killing it I'll bend but never break until the spinning makes A whole new path Through the river, cross the hills, over the winding forest Across the past Attitudes change, my focus remains I can't argue with that
6.
Obviously 03:33
It's so lovely when you don't do what you say A broken warped record could take your place Every minute, every second, every moment of the day Wrap your head around that and dig what you say But somehow you still think that it's not obvious You're obviously wrong Something so simple in your eyes, but I can see it now You see it too Through broken glass take a picture make it last Because this pace wont last Don't try to fix me, just move along It's worked this way for years sans right and wrong Every minute, every second, every moment of the day Keep your blindfold on and keep punching away
7.
You tried to fool me yesterday Think I remember you from the seventh grade With that same dumb haircut and that look I think you think I give a %^&* Words can't express what I have to say But walking through the graveyard makes me feel ok Ghouls have no problems there only dark They wont take your shit, they'll take your heart Your emotions turn like a rusty gate Moving back and forth until they start to break Don't bring me down with your lonely look I think you think I give a %^&*
8.
So you wanna thrill me And you want to watch me break down Look right through me Are you alone I never know You take up too much space Celebrations help embrace my heart is always with you Not the sound of laughter I can't do it alone Troubled times are through me Treat me like you do me That's all I ask of you Faces look up to me and ask
9.
It's freezing hot, but I'm ice cold Machines are making machines not big enough to hold There's a real sweet tune about an old brown shoe Oh and I'm in love with you Take a chance and forget it Take a change or regret Don't ever think this is not a test It takes a lot to give so much more than the rest Mistakes are made don't be a bitch and run away You'll only make it someone else's problem There's a chair with no back at the front of the room But their agenda means nothing to you You gotta take that first step left over right Say goodbye, goodbye to the night Our individual goal in life ought to be to seek virtue and excellence and recognize that self-esteem and happiness can only come from using one’s own natural ability, in the most productive manner possible. Productivity and creativity are the true source of personal satisfaction. Freedom, and not dependency, provides the environment needed to achieve these goals. Government cannot do this for us; it only gets in the way. It only gets in your way.
10.
Hello to you It's all so new to me Hello to you It takes two for company A perfect fit is what I'm looking for I think you're it Whisper something you had never done before We'll make time for it It feels right Like nothing has ever felt before It feels nice When you hold me I know That there's something, something more Goodbye to you Our time is through you see Goodbye to you Move on to find and seek what feels right Something more Something more Something more
