t0cktock I've seen Nick Campbell play it pretty straight in his session work with Scary Pockets and Vulfpeck's telethon for "Mr. Finish Line". This album is delightfully weird and wonderful front to back and I have an abundance of respect for his art. I stumbled on this album looking for Antwaun Stanley's other work outside of Vulfpeck, hence the favorite track. Favorite track: The End? (Feat. Antwaun Stanley).

I see you staring Like I’m a little tasty treat And you want to make me feel your heat Hard like beef sweats so hot Your eyes, I think they’ve got me melting I know when I’m feeling sexy The place where I want to be Oh baby, let’s go and drink drank Eat the meat Let’s go and swallow all our pain Let’s go get drunk at Arby’s Frick yeah They say we’re strung out Like overdone curly fries Because we’re raging every single night Down at Arby’s, eat fresh Drink gin, until you’re not dead inside I know when I’m feeling lonely The place where I want to be Oh baby, let’s go and drink drank Eat the meat Let’s go and swallow all our pain Let’s go get drunk at Arby’s Fuck yeah

Some say that I’m a hermit But that just isn’t right I’m not agoraphobic I just don’t go outside Don’t like to see my neighbors They always kill my vibe Observing all my movements Undress me with their eyes Everyone’s always hustlin' Tryin’ to sell me somethin’ The only moment I can truly be myself is Sunday Nobody’s anywhere and everything’s free (Sunday) Nobody’s pushing their position on me (Sunday) No Wednesday whiskey specials Everyone crawling round Drunk and feelin’ sexual Some swanky part of town No need to fight for parking I’d rather stay at home Update my social pages And watch my toenails grow I’ve got direct deposit Skeletons in my closet UV protected, I’m content all by myself on Sunday Nobody’s anywhere and everything’s free (Sunday) Nobody’s pushing their position on me (Sunday) You might think I'm a psycho But you’re just like me, I know Wastin’ your weekdays working wishin’ wishin’ it was Sunday Nobody’s anywhere and everything’s free (Sunday) Nobody’s pushing their position on me (Sunday) Nobody’s anywhere and everything’s free (Sunday) Nobody’s pushing their position on me (Sunday)

Tonight going to a party Think I’ll get there exactly when it’s starting This will maximize my socializing Oh my goodness this is so exciting Girl then I see you dancing free You make me weak in the knees But I’ll still climb your family tree Stepping out on the scene I got my fancy genes Stepping out on the scene Trying to build my legacy I hope that you understand just what I mean by fancy genes The moment I arrived at the shindig I saw you staring and I knew that I would win big I felt my body turn from solid to liquid Can’t wait for us to get all handsy like some big squid Girl, would you like to dance with me? Don’t make me get down on my knees Have you done 23 and me? Oh I just wanna climb your family tree Stepping out on the scene Got my fancy genes Stepping out on the scene Trying to build my legacy I don’t think you understand quite what I mean by fancy genes Stepping out on the scene Got my fancy genes Stepping out on the scene Trying to build my legacy

Your kisses taste like jazz Like wasting away your golden years Thinking about the past Tastes like the way you laughed On that fourth street rooftop Five years disappeared so fast Your kisses taste like jazz I don’t know what you want from me anymore Losing hair like autumn leaves Falling off the sun burned branch Of a dying tree Everyday I feel a just little bit farther far away I think I understand why you used to say When I sleep I don’t even dream anymore

My mother is on the fleek again Fleek again, this week again Trying to beat the heat again My mother is on the street again Fresh meat again, you creep again So shut up your mouth Hop in the vette Step on the gas, cause you’re in my way Put on a pot of coffee Strap on my Sunday shoes Trying, failing to Shake off the Sunday blues Wondering where you’re wandering Scared you forget yourself Well, maybe this time you won’t end up in jail My mother is on the fleek again Fleek again, this week again Trying to beat the heat again My mother is on the street again Fresh meat again, you creep again So shut up your mouth Hop in the vette Step on the gas, cause you’re in my way Why don’t you ever call me? Why aren’t you by my side? Bunk bed, empty Even when daddy died Sometimes I hate my family Sometimes I hate myself Well, oh well, at least i won’t end up in hell Hey bros, you ready? Let’s do it again. My mother is on the fleek again Fleek again, this week again Trying to beat the heat again My mother is on the street again Fresh meat again, you creep again So shut up your mouth Hop in the vette Step on the gas, cause you’re in my way I love this woman crazy But I can’t do this my self Well, oh well, I guess I’ll put her in a home My mother is on the fleek again Fleek again, this week again Trying to beat the heat again My mother is on the street again Fresh meat again, you creep again So shut up your mouth Hop in the vette Step on the gas, cause you’re in my way

Man, you wear me out You leave me hanging Vulture, circling overhead I will hunt you Go back to your congregation That killed its god You killed your god And ate it’s babies Throw it all up Pour it down The throats of all your little birds Coddle, keep them fat and bored They will thank you Can’t you see wait you’ve done, Egg? You fucked yourself With your own cross Phony Go back to your congregation That killed its god You killed your god And ate it’s babies

Nick Campbell Destroys Los Angeles, California

Los Angeles native, electric bass player, Nick Campbell is reinventing the jazz genre for this generation. Flipping traditional conventions on their head, Nick’s unique penchant for superimposing triadic patterns over static harmony has brought a modern twist to “getting modal,” creating a distinctive yet eccentric sound of his own.
