about

From "In Memory of Tanner Tuck" a split by Chief Broom and Frankie Tillo released via Mishap and Earth Libraries to commemorate his memory on the 1-year anniversary of the passing of drummer Tanner Tuck on 06/11/21.

"The song 'Leaks' has some melancholy but also uplifting lyrics and a garage rock sound.

'This song instrumentally is sort of a culmination of a mix of sounds we were (expletive)-ing with at the time, like chorus-y bass from '80s new-wave or post-punk like the Cure, then like this epic stadium-rock sounding chorus like U2 or some s-(expletive) but recorded to sound like '90s indie rock, Pavement, (our Boise founding fathers’) Built to Spill or some s-(expletive) like that," said Shadrach Tuck. "Lyrically, I was still very much affected day to day by the passing of my brother and how it left this massive void in my life but promising myself I will carry on. I reference others who inspire me in the lyrics as well.'"

-Tracy Bringhurst, Boise Weekly

lyrics

when my feet hit the floor
of my bedroom
today I ask myself,
“how can I take one step more?”
I guess I never thought this early
I’d see my little brother leave…
but I force myself to think about
all these fallen trees
feeding new flora
or simply fueling the fire
under my ass
shit, if it pushed my uncle to
finally become a rehab-grad at last,
I guess it’s never too late to
patch that leak in your life…

when the pressure breaks
you’re caught in its wake
you can reach for me
I won’t pull you under

I realize i often bite off more
than I can chew,
I take after my dad
who once juggled 3 jobs to send
my brother and i through school
I noticed recently,
he’s still drivin’ everywhere on “E”
like my mind circlin’ the drain
‘round what I “should” or “shouldn’t” be
but there’s nothing I really have to prove,
love’s the only thing real I have to lose
so I just want him to know,
although he worries so,
he did the best any father
could ever hope to do

I just had to get that off my chest…
‘cause it’s never too late to patch that leak in your life!

when the pressure breaks
you’re caught in its wake
you can reach for me
I won’t pull you under
