    Leicester England's Diesel Park West has been cranking out stellar, topical rock'n'roll since their debut, Shakespeare Alabama, from 1989. The band's latest effort, Not Quite the American Dream, was made during the lockdown of 2020 and explores more thought provoking avenues all put to sturdy rhythms and hung on superb melodies. "Secondary Modern Man" is the best song Kinks song Ray Davies never wrote and "Best of You" could quite possibly make Paul Weller bristle with jealousy. If you are at all interested in classic British rock'n'roll with a little bit of social commentary thrown in the mix, this is the record for YOU.

about

John Butler: Everything splits in the end but I just wanted to itemize some of them, you know make it easy and explainable like a shopping list which is worth a read. Also expressing a regret that things have not always been as they are now which suggests happiness has been found...eventually.

lyrics

All that’s sacred all that’s good
All that learning from the neighbourhood
Blazing rows solid vows
Count for nothing now
Rip your heart out
Cover your face
Sell your car
Trade your place
Don’t sing no more
Don't roll the drum
Wake up lonely if you want
Yeah, leave the lights on in the day
Might as well cos it's gone away
Gone gone gone
Yeah, it's gone gone gone

The party's over
Bread's gone stale
Pockets are empty
Even nature's failed
Lord gimmie protection
From the dusty haze
In the year without days
No one to follow or repair the roof
You know I might be the living
The living proof
Of twilight child raised like a god
Well we all were really
Those who’d never had it so good
Yeah, the party's over
gone for good
Yeah, gone gone gone
Gone gone gone

And I wish I’d never loved no one but you you you
Yeah you you you
Yeah I wish I’d never loved no one but you but you
Yeah you

What about faith?
Gone
What about family?
Gone
What about trust?
Gone
What about knowledge?
Gone
What about opinion?
Gone
Speaking without fear?
Gone
What about The Beatles?
Ah, you needed more than love

But it's gone gone gone
Yeah, gone gone gone
And I wish I’d never loved no one but you but you but you
Yeah I wish I’d never loved no one but you but you but you

Gone gone gone
