Post Punk: Tennis System – “Clearer”
Tennis System
“Clearer”
P A I N
Post punk with real snotty attitude, not fake, that’s what I crave. And Tennis System satisfies that crave. This LA post punk/shoegaze band does NOT suffer from what I call the ‘rich boy blues’. These guys are true to their music. Having fun, being semi-deep, playing great music, that’s what post punk should be and is with Tennis System. I love how dark they can be. We can all identify with this band. Tennis System is Matty Taylor – vocals, guitar; Sam Glassberg – bass; and Garren Orr – drums. This is the band for your cruising in your car (did you guys still do that?) TURN IT UP. Check out these great lyrics too.
Where do I go from here?
I just want to disappear
How can I be more clear?
It gets worse with every year
Seasons change
I stayed the same
Sometimes I just let it slide
It gets dark, but it stays inside
If you ask, I’ll say I’m fine
One day I’ll swallow my pride
Seasons change
I stayed the same
