about

Taken from The Semis 2011 release Decapitator Blues.

lyrics

All the trees they've been shifting, right before my eyes.
And I'm listening for them to call me away but the mountain aint no easy climb. Do you know the way to be loose like the echo bouncing randomly in you mind? You've been speeding your days on the sun but you've played out that movie too many times.

I wil light your way up the mountain with the shine of a million eyes. And my ears always turning to hear what it takes to survive. Do you know what to say when you answer the echo from a canyon ten miles wide? Will you follow beside me, stay here and guide me cuz to freedom aint no easy ride.

Finally up the mountain where they showed me how to stand solid ground like the millions who ignored distant calls to turn back down from the mountain where they lure you away from yourself to find something better than something else.

The Semis image

The Semis St Petersburg, Florida

The Semis are a superior rock n roll band with a mid-fi beachy garage-pop vibe. They meld solid gold songcraft with pure rock n' roll id.

Because their shit is classic The Semis music has been featured on many major networks.

They are constantly writing and recording. And swimming... and slaying.

Drop them a line anytime. ... more
