    At the tail end of 2021, Popeye (Farside) uprooted his entire life to move across the country to the city of Scranton, PA, where he would eventually come to meet the rest of his new band, Calling Hours: guitarists Thomas McGrath (The Commercials) and Tony Bavaria (The Commercials), bassist Garrett Rothman (Don't Sleep), and drummer Jim Bedorf (Don't Sleep). For Brian McTernan, a celebrated producer with a nearly 30-year history of shaping some of the biggest hardcore records of all time - including albums for Hot Water Music, Turnstile, Circa Survive, And Thrice - advancing Calling Hours from the idea stage to the recording stage was personal. The outcome of that collaboration is "Say Less," a seven-song record for Revelation Records that revisits the band members' melodic, post-punk sensibilities while working in a decidedly contemporary direction.

lyrics

No rain, no sun, no food, and no fun.
Eight balls come and go but I’m still in your pocket.

So get up, and get right. I’ll be ready when you pick that fight.
I don’t want to know what you’re thinking about right now.

Stow your pride and put on something pretty.
I’ll tow that line, despite the growls and hissing.

Trade in my sunscreen for a different dream.
Trade in my sunscreen for a different dream.
Trade in my sunscreen for a different dream.
Go cash that check and let’s get wrecked.
Because I’m tired of messing around.

No words, no love, it’s cold, but no gloves.
Heartaches come and go but I’m still in your locket.

So get bent, and get dumb. I’ll be ready when you’re almost numb.
You don’t want to know what I’m thinking about right now.

Stow your pride and put on something pretty.
I’ll tow that line, despite the growls and hissing.
Trade in my sunscreen for a different dream.
Trade in my sunscreen for a different dream.
Trade in my sunscreen for a different dream.
Go cash that check and let’s get wrecked.
Because I’m tired of messing around.
Of messing around.

They say that bad things come to those who hate.
So stop hating on your life, and pull out your biggest knife.

My heart’s a brick when your eyes get thick.
We’re dancing in the rain, but the pain remains.
We’re dancing in the rain, but the pain remains.
We’re dancing in the rain, but the pain remains.
We’re dancing in the rain, but the pain remains.
(Stow your pride. Stow your pride.)
(I’ll tow that line. I’ll tow that line.)
