theUtmost Had this on repeat to get familiar pre Church pub gig. While overall I think I prefer albums: Iris & Reb Fountain, there are still many awesome tracks in here, and I'm so pleased I got to hear them live! 🤗🫶
Shout out to the sound crew on at the gig - you guys managed a very pleasing SPL in the bass dept and that being my fave instrument, I was in heaven. Karin, love your work! ❤️
Must buy this today, not only is it the day after a most excellent concert, but it's NZ Music Month AND BC Friday. Favorite track: Nothing Like.

dwinlomusic I’ve been enjoying getting to know this album since its release. I adored IRIS, and this continues and extends some aspects of the sound on that album while adding some fun new bits. Reb’s lyricism is different enough from most other artists I listen to that I’ll be able to keep coming back and thinking about what she’s singing/whispering/saying to me, which I always treasure in an album. Favorite track: How Love Bends.

tulianontroppo Another rock solid release by Reb Fountain but really without much stretching of the mold. Thankfully I love the shape of the mold so don’t mind at all. Finely produced too! Favorite track: Memorial.

There’s Nothin’ like an Exile to lose your head Nothing like a Bad Dream to wake the dead When I get outta here, I’m gonna call you, say what I should have said Nothin’ like Longing to want to forget Nothin’ like a Tiger to lose your nerve Nothing like a Desert to fuel your thirst You don’t have to be good to know it hurts Nothin’ like Regret for what it’s worth Nothin’ like Sadness to steal you home Nothing like Loosing to keep you warm When everything-you-knew-feels-new then you’re ahead of the storm Nothin’ like Trouble to break the dawn Nothin’ like Dying to chase a war Nothing like Sorrow for keeping score You saw the lightening and steered for shore Nothin’ like Wanting more, I’m ready for a slow dance There’s nothin’ like New Love to raise your head Nothing like Falling for wings to spread Breathing for the sake of it Nothin’ like dreaming for cheating death
7.	He Commands You to Jump into the Sea 04:24 video	lyrics	buy track
He commands you to jump into the sea His real name no one knew yet still we listened We were 200 years older and you’d been caught singing the news He commands you to jump into the sea You wake at midnight barking It’s easier to catch flies with honey than vinegar I am the last minx, a feral killer, your lapdog, I’m happy you’re home Without giving money or love I received you We’re not drowning I say knowing I will go with you Little constellations of history, phosphorescent as we carpet the sea So loud you can hear us in out of space We’re falling all the way to heaven Falling for you boy I ask you where you were all night though I don’t care to know I just want your pillow But here in the supermarket, standing in the supermarket With our two worlds and a generation of birds between Nothing can take the wind out of my sails except this Planck and your billowing mouth of forever It’s enough to save our soul But last nights is all dreams Just desert and fly traps and the turning of the star Row me gently Fly me wise Breath me deeply Steer me clear Thank god for the last soldier, leave my loneliness unbroken Unknown places on maps, the gate of sorrow still intact Everything is burning How do you warm your heart Before names I am the world A river with no edges We share our last name the mountains and I They say it matters where you place your eye The hunt kept me from learning, yearning Hunger made me ugly company Is anyone looking for me Turns out that you’re near He commands you to jump into the sea If anyone here is interested in loving themselves as much as they love god - follow me If you’re calling into paradise and you can’t get in ‘cause it’s under ice - follow me There’s a ship that could take us back in time to exactly the spot when we were alive - follow me With a raft that we made from broken hearts - just you and me baby we can reach the stars - follow me If anyone here is interested If anyone’s here and interested

about

Believe it or not 'How Love Bends' is a positive record. For Reb, Love is the tether that binds us all; love is a choice, a perspective, love is liberation.

As love bends, so too has Reb’s music effortlessly evolved. In How Love Bends, Reb further reveals the expanse of her artistry; her palette is rich, complex, brazen and unapologetic.
