ryoziin found this album soon after release through a friend and word-of-mouth on twitter, and was pleasantly surprised. really glad i found this album, as i've gotten to talk to so many cool people involved in the keep it together community because of it, and even got to speak with jake directly to work on some merch. maybe i'm biased because of that, but this album is great and is well worth a listen. kit 4 ever!!! Favorite track: Lost Dogs.

SliceJosiah Whenever I'm browsing Bandcamp I usually have to listen to an album for a bit to decide if it belongs anywhere near my collection or my playlist and whether or not it's worth purchasing. It's not every day I listen to the first featured track and go 'mmm yeah that's the kind of music I like I'll get that right away no matter the price tag'. Well this just happened to be one of those special cases. Favorite track: Dashcam.

Hopwort You know it's good when you can listen end-to-end, lots of it sticks, and favorites are hard to pick. Favorite track: Goodnight, Tiger.

Adjacent 02:41
dear forgiveness, you don't get me dear forgiveness, don't forget me it's gonna be a bad, bad night every night for the rest of my life they'll always think about you but they'll never trust me when I say I loved you, too I don't like to think about you I hate it when they say that I'm just like you I don't like it but I can take it burn everything, just like I'm used to it's gonna be a bad, bad night every night for the rest of my life they'll always think about you but they'll never trust me when I say I loved you, too I don't like to think about you I hate it when they say that I'm adjacent to you I'm just like you

follow me down I'm sure of this feeling safe now I'm sick of this (need to be) somewhere (need to be) somewhere else (need to be) somewhere somewhere else follow me down I'm sick of this feeling safe now I'm sure of this I planned out a trip to Norway for about a few months with my cousin it didn't happen, but it was fun to think about I ended up going to Brighton and wearing my skirt around for a day went to Goring-by-Sea to pick up a pedal once I want to go back to Eastbourne again I just need to get out of this city need somewhere to just be alone and stop feeling so disconnected all the time I think it was March 25th when my opinion on this place changed I used to not like it at all but now I think that sometimes I like it here and if you didn't get that reference, just wait a little longer tell I'm wrong and the world's not ending when the lights go off I just can't stand it if I tell you what's wrong will you understand what I mean (somewhere, somewhere else) needing space now I'm tired of it find a new town and move to it tell I'm wrong and the world's not ending when the lights go off I just can't stand it if I tell you what's wrong will you understand what I mean (somewhere, somewhere else)

contently coming up with conclusions to my life unsatisfied with not giving up on my life would you stab me in the church would I care how much it hurts I need something to move away from I’m stuck with nothing to push away from did you care about the things we didn’t finish what about the start of that song we wanted to write did you care??? (instrumental) would you stab me in the church would I care how much it hurts I need something to move away from I’m stuck with nothing to push away from did you care about the song now that it’s been a year since i bought it your playing your guitar I am filling out circles in my mind I am filling out circles in my mind it was a happy song we wrote a happy song it was a happy song

I'm getting better at what I do I've got no space in my room for you some days are better than others and this week hasn't been so great you'll find that everything's fine I'm getting out I'm going home in the future I will hate this version of myself stumbling down the hallway aware of everyone else let's do this again sometime I'm getting out I'm going home I'll still believe I'm on my own take twenty minutes while on your break to write me back, like yesterday I still remember a year ago I buried things so deep below when this began, I tied a knot it's tangled now, 'cause I forgot I will forever hold my peace but maybe I'll break when they ask me to speak up sometimes the people you care about will hurt you and you don't know how to go about getting them to stop the voice inside your head is a lot to handle

Dashcam 03:17
Dashcam! do not disturb him while he's sleeping he's dreaming of doing terrible things and his dreams are broadcast on TV though, this show's a little tacky there's no need for medicince when I've got you how can I say that when I already knew? don't check the weather cos we're not going out tonight you know I hate to do it like this - our lives lived out in public they caught it on the dashcam saying "this is who I am" standing on the pavement, both arms aching let's do this again sometime there's no need for medicince when I've got you how can I say that when I already knew? don't check the weather cos we're not going out tonight there's no need for medicince when I've got you how can I say that when I already knew? don't check the weather cos we're not going out tonight

Power Lines 03:31
you should ask me about something that I care about you should ask me what I mean but you hate me but you hate me and you want me dead it's not too bad to feel this bad if I take stuff off my walls it just takes up space on my floor I still wanna see you you're just not where I need to be but I'll go (I'll go) so I can have you next to me maybe they can't tell that I didn't wash my hair last night they can't tell I'm struggling with the power lines if I take stuff off my walls it just takes up space on my floor I still wanna see you you're just not where I need to be but I'll go (I'll go) so I can have you next to me

I see you more than you see me why won't you give me space to breathe? you think it's bad down here? well, it's even worse upstairs but you'll just stand there you won't even listen I'm sick of feeling like there's something wrong with me for thinking there's something wrong with this how can I roll over? go back to sleep? I'll shut myself off and delete I've gotta wipe myself off the face of the earth when the right time comes now I've gotta learn how to turn this off when I wanna go away I've gotta wipe myself off the face of the earth when the right time comes now I've gotta learn how to turn this off when I wanna go away

I slept with your watch on to dream of your time but I'm dreaming of doing bad things for no reason again I've got you in my corner to tell me things will be fine goodnight, tiger you still blow my mind from time to time I'm sleeping on the floor now make it feel fine sleep tight, tiger you can show me some other time meet me in the kitchen (meet me in the kitchen, by the bathroom) tell me how how I'm doing (tell me how I'm doing, am I bad now?) I'm wide awake now and I'm glad you're not here I've got you in my corner to tell me things will be fine goodnight, tiger you still blow my mind from time to time I'm sleeping on the floor now make it feel fine sleep tight, tiger you can show me some other time

Lost Dogs 04:05
we can be quiet in the mornings but I don't think I can ignore this let's meet up next week if you even want to see me and if you find that you're alone just pretend your eyes are closed and you've got nowhere to go cos you're dreaming and you don't realise your tongue is bleeding until you unclench your jaw now I've got no reason to stay awake (nw2g) somewhere on a hard drive is a picture of my heart death on the internet we haven't even started yet you'll just lose another dog and you'll throw another bone hoping he still knows the way to get back home maybe he isn't alone and he's found some other dogs and they'll make themselves a home he was never really lost

about

it would be cheating to call this a 'bedroom' album since we mixed some of it at uni. uni rock should be a genre.

following 2022's "Making Space" and "The Worst Person You Know" (two albums that were produced in under 3 months each), i initially set out to do the exact same thing, but different. but then "i" became "we", and that gave us some more space to test the waters with "Lost Dogs". the songs on this album somehow made their way onto a stage before they ended up on the internet, which was the unexpected turn that this project ended up taking. although that was the goal for some point further down the line, it ended up coming together much more quickly and somewhat smoothly. Keep it Together is now a band who plays shows. we are technically no longer a bedroom act. don't be fooled, though! we don't know what we're doing in the slightest. all four of us are still exploring somewhat uncharted territory. that's the glory of it, though - we may be lost, but at least we're lost together.
