You never took off your coat when you'd come over. Not even once. You really stuck to your guns. And as stupid as it was, you knew it's not over. That's how it goes when you're in love. If I knew where you go when you walk from my home, no I don't mind...I'd follow you. Around the corner I'd go like a stalker with no explanation. I'd follow you like a rat or a dog with a body to turn to a carcass. I'd follow you like a boy who has waited three years for his chance to be honest. I'll follow you. Yeah, I'll follow you forever. If you just take off your coat.

about

Axis of Conversation Calgary, Alberta

Axis of Conversation is breakbeats and backwards guitars. It’s strings, samples and stolen noises. It’s familiar pop from foreign strangers.

Onstage, you’ll see a cello and a violin as old as your grandparents. You’ll see more Filipino men than you’ve ever seen in any other band. You'll recognize the drummer from 234 other groups. But somehow it will all make sense. ... more
