Livin' here Is not an easy thing Another chance It never comes You wanna do it You wish to do it For the last time Can you hear? The bell chimes While we're watching TV Things got out of control There's no way out There's no success at all Nobody knows About winners The way is cut By the scissors Can't you see Us in the mirrors Imagine us As the haters While we're watching TV Things got out of control There's no way out There's no success at all

Miracle Map 03:51
How can I learn how to hold my tongue? The days are gone And you're still holding your gun I am the one Who's gonna save you this time Because your saviour has just left the town And if you And if I Could draw a miracle map? How many times have you tried to untie? No time to take Don't even try to hide I'm not the one Who blows away with the wind Who do you think can bring the flavour of spring? And if you And if I Could draw a miracle map? Ain't it good Ain't it fine Count on a miracle map?
3.
You need to leave The place where we were born To find a new reality Where you just can belong And you moved so fast And you left the past behind your back Floated into the night with nothing left inside Painted the daytime black Lost in the crowd Afraid of the thundercloud Thrown into the night I don't want you to go But I should and you don't think that I cloud We won't stay here anymore No more golden rocks to throw Because you moved so fast And you left the past behind your back Floated into the night with nothing left inside And your postcard is lost Lost in the crowd Afraid of the thundercloud Thrown into the night Both of us know This is the last time You let me know
4.
Woke up at midnight After a really crazy day I can't contain my mind And I need to get away Some kind of dream I can't discern at all It makes me scream I'm gonna write on the wall I'm on the brink of insanity Please drive me to your infinity To the world full of simplicity Where is no space for my vanity That nightmare of mine Was a fistion or a fact? Am I blind in my mind Where the dreams overlap? There's a pleasure at sunrise With no more delusion Can you help me realize What to say in conclusion? I'm on the brink of insanity Please drive me to your infinity To the world full of simplicity Where is no space for my vanity

4 AM 04:10
Stars Stars above my head Stars On the edge of darkness And I prayed I prayed so hard the rain would come To calm down My face my thoughts - where did they come from? From the edge From the edge Of darkness See the light
6.
Insecure 03:39
Maybe it's not so real Maybe it's not so sure I think I cannot breathe I think it might be true Give me another faith Another that I'd hate Tell me the reason why Is this in front of us? So You know We've said so many threats Then nothing, no regrets (and we meant it) Now I feel insecure What were you fighting for? It seems I gave it up Instead of being tough A bullet in the back Would be better than that Here we go So You know
7.
Locked 03:37
Day by boring day I'm drawing the line When you're feeling lonely You're wasting your time You're locked in your room Maybe locked in your mind It's hard to understand What people want to live It's hard to find a way That people need to live You're locked in your room Maybe locked in your mind I've got I see I feel My soul in my alley Of trees and people stay alone They are falling down We must be here / We must be strong Living in this world / behind the door I think I don't belong here Maybe I don't belong here I can see your face But I can't see your smile
8.
Better Go 03:28
Try to look fast Back to your past Are you satisfied With your own life? A kind of illusion Or just your confusion Look inside your soul Is it true, ain't it a hole? And I can't do Enough for you Don't always wait For another sunny day Today: come and say You came to risk and play Probably you will fight All the days all the nights No more rest Do want to catch the best And I can't do Enough for you You better go You better run The path is short Can't deny You better go You better run Time is running out You can't deny
9.
Flying Like a swallow in the sky Keep trying Let everything out of my mind Escaping Into the garden with flowers Breaking Red bricks of high towers I'll take you to my paradise Could you let me do this twice? Buying One silent minute Dreaming To be like a small kid Fading Colours, in this way Welcoming The world full of dark gray Again I'll take you to my paradise Could you let me do this twice? I'll show you a different world Would you board this boat?

Places are a five-member band formed in Ostrava, Czech Republic in 2010. They have released 3 EPs, played countless shows across the country and went busking in the streets of Berlin.

In April 2016 they released their debut album DISTANT EDGES, which was produced by Tomas Neuwerth (Umakart, Kittchen, Kafka band, Nierika, LU etc.). Mastering was done by Steve Kitch from Devon, UK (Anathema, Opeth, The Pinneaple Thief).

On the album, which they worked on together with Tomas Neuwerth since 2014 in his Studio Animan in Kopřivnice (CZ), there are nine songs, which share the human heart, desire, pain, separation and confusion as the main themes. Lyrics are often inspired by true stories and feelings of people, the music in many cases emerges from long jamming together.

Places are not afraid of strong melodies but they never wanted to be likeable on the first listen.

"This group of five from Ostrava started in 2010 as a rock'n'roll band. They later did not refuse acoustic sets and busking but they gradually worked their way up to the indie-rock present that can't deny either post-rock or shoegaze influences." - United Islands
