We make music to make people feel how we feel when we listen to our favorite music. It's a very visceral thing, the connection we have to it. It moves our bodies and gives us a reason to keep getting up in the morning.

Jail Weddings' epic second full length is quite aptly titled. Meltdown: the flailing emotional implosion often borne of a triumvirate of frayed nerves, volatile substances and excessive external pressure is clearly evidenced in the words and music herein. But, there's also a newfound sense of musical genres and histories mixing together like molten wax where the band's signature Shangri-La's, Bad Seeds, noir-hued pop merges with hazy psychedelia, bombastic rock and even essences of bizarre Eastern European folk. It's the sound of a band that's always been at the brink of self-destruction actually growing and thriving on its own chaotic impulses.

when I was young, they told me to wait
said child, you're so wild, learn to hesitate
so for a while I felt guilt for my sins
its taken all my life just to forgive it again
when I was young, livin' outside the city
they said girl, all you must do in this world is stay pretty
now that I'm older, I know its a lie
its taken all my life, its taken all my life
to take it all back
all I want is someone to love me
heaven above or hell below me
