Smoking crack

EDIT:

Ha, Just watched the vid through and realised my deliberate mistake about Cherry Beach - it's the 7th song on the set list. Everything else is true...


Career Suicide formed around the same time as Fucked Up - 2001 or thereabouts - Jonah is in both bands and their recorded output tailed off a little when Fucked Up became a full-time project.

Now things are kicking off again, they've been playing shows, have an imminent new LP and last weekend they played in England for the first time since 2008; the same year their last record, 'Cherry Beach' (7") came out. The London shows were great and on the last night they played a few extra songs, one of which was 'Cherry Beach'...

Below is a set list and video of the last night, the song doesn't appear on either, but they definitely played it at the end. It was really hot, sweaty and beer soaked. I'd 'danced' a little too enthusiastically and when the extra songs started, I was trying to decide if it would be less cool to have a heart attack in the mosh pit, or vacate and sit down, but then Cherry Beach came on and I had to stagger around a little longer. Fortunately they stopped just about then and I was able to sit on the edge of the stage clutching my chest and so, just before the ambulance came, I bagged a set list...



Here's the vid:






And here's a discography:










so one by one i let them go 
all the things that i've ever known 
the anchors fall out of my head 
i can't look back at what i've shed

the tears are pouring from my eyes 
those little weights i try to cry 
to shake the earth and leave behind 
i see things like i've never seen 
become someone i've never been

by now i've dropped so many things 
it's like i've grown a pair of wings 
my mind supine, the kiss of sky 
so fresh, so close, it seems that i can fly

where is the ox that left and got away 
i flew away from all the pain of stress and tears 
tear the sun and moon and split the sky 
into the sky the light the peace of mind to find 
find the beast and set a golden yoke
