Stolen Blues - American Princes

Stolen Blues - American Princes
2:31
Less And Less, 2006
Written by American Princes?

This is a quiet/loud indie rocker that, in its full-throated, frantic explosion of angsty despair, reminds me of Les Savy Fav's "Yawn, Yawn, Yawn."  It's a message of disappointment and futility.  "They've been lying to you / They've been lying to you / Saying stay dumb and shut up, salt the old wounds / But that's just what they say / That namеless they."  It's a clever, hard-driven burner with twin guitars and passionate vocals.
