about
Mind Is Light was self-recorded & mixed at the bands own studio in Busan, and mastered by Matthew Barnhart at Chicago Mastering Service.
Lyricist Sumi Choi reflects on dealing with mental health and life’s anxieties, with exercise, nature and acceptance. The band’s signature melancholy is balanced with rays of hope.
The single’s cover artwork is illustrated by James McNew (Yo La Tengo).
The new song is accompanied by a music video directed by Nahee Kim. The band will be hitting various cities in US/CA this July, starting with a live session at KEXP on July 14th. www.saysueme.com/tour/
“We wanted to make a simple song like the early songs of Say Sue Me.
I wish I could take my mind lightly, but it easily becomes heavy. I thought about how to lighten my mind. First of all, I walk outside and BELIEVE that my heart is light. Second, I think it doesn't matter if it's not true.” Sumi Choi
lyrics
Mind is Light
Out of town, walk on a quiet mountain
The sun pours down
And my face unwinds
I’ve got a lot on my mind
But I know I’ll be fine
I’m trying to have a good time
Now my body and mind are light
Even if it's not true, I don't mind
Walk all the way to the trees, the rocks and the water
Will you be there?
I’ve got a lot on my mind
But I know I’ll be fine
I’m trying to have a good time
Now my body and mind are light
Even If it's not true, I don't mind

Exceptional punk music! I love sloppy punk, but this manages to be clean without without losing any energy at all (maybe even getting more of it in the process!). Can't recommend it enough and show them to everyone I know zacharypinkham
"Flower Of Life" yanks riot grrrl south through the unmistakable garage psych sound indispensable to the last 20-odd years of rock music out of Los Angeles. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 2, 2023
