2) Birth Control are also a newer band from Philadelphia, featuring Sean McGuiness of Pissed Jeans. They play a strange form of punk that embodies anything that defies normality and embraces the unknown. Their music, if capable of being compared to anything/anyone at all, is similar to having your questions constantly going unanswered.

Birth Control Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For ???? this place and take my chance
????
We gotta smile for we are (??children's??) man
We'll do the thing, we'll do ???? happy playing
Just see the ???? like rock'n'roll is here again
No ???? those kids may shake their hands
They’re satisfied ????
No matter how we try to do this song
No ???? those kids may shake their hands
They're satisfied ????
The song "Nostalgia" by Birth Control speaks of longing for simpler times and an eagerness to go back to where it all started. The opening lines "We gotta go back to where it started off, for (unknown) this place and take my chance" seem to suggest a desire to return to a place of innocence, where one could take chances without fear of consequence. The singer seems to yearn for that time gone by, perhaps wishing he could turn back time.
As the song progresses, the singer speaks of smiling and being like children again, and doing things that make them happy. This is perhaps indicative of a need to return to a time of freedom and lack of inhibition. The line "Just see the (unknown) like rock'n'roll is here again" hints at a sense of nostalgia, reminiscent of the heyday of rock and roll music, a time when music was raw, emotional and authentic.
In the chorus, the singer talks about how no matter how hard they try to please everyone, the younger generation will always find satisfaction in what they already know. This seems like a commentary on how difficult it can be to break through to a younger audience when they are raised on a particular sound or style of music. It's a lament of sorts, wishing for a time when all they had to do was play great music and be understood.
