1) A Three-piece Punkband from the Netherlands, formed in 1999 or 2000. The name comes from the dutch name for Peanutbutter.

2) || NOW KNOWN AS NIGHT RIOTS || Long time friends and members of multiple local bands, PK formed for both the sheer joy of playing music and at the same time to help strengthen the weakening scene in their hometown of San Luis Obispo, CA. In 2007 PK recorded a five song EP entitled Casting Shadows at Green bean Studios in Sunland, CA. With the strength of this EP, PK established a strong following in Central and Northern California. Working completely for themselves, the members of PK created many tight relationships with bands, fans and promoters alike. From San Jose to San Francisco to San Luis Obispo, PK draws more new fans each time they return to a city. At the beginning of 2009 PK returned to Green Bean to record a three song demo. Currently released online and through burned CDs passed out at shows, these three songs have already opened up PK’s market to a much wider audience. Now not only do the original, “teen to twenties” fans still enjoy the music but PK has been able to find an audience in their fans’ parents as well. With a much more cohesive and marketable sound these three songs show much promise for what’s to come. The band will return to the studio in mid-August to record five more songs that will be combined with the previous three to create a six-song “half-length” leaving two songs to be released later. After the completion of the record, PK will begin weekend tours, strategically playing areas in northern, southern and eastern California, quickly building markets all over the state. Equipped with a newly purchased van and trailer, and the strength of the new songs PK will be touring from now until forever.

Way out, held up under Western Sky
I guess I need to say it aloud
Or I'm afraid that I'll regret
Pretty soon boys, we'll all go our own way
But for now all we need are good friends
Cold nights we will not forget

My brother's home in the darkness

Oh I remember how she was still
It haunts me in my evenings
Where will this set me in the stars?
And I believe that you belong to someone else
It's not what you say, but more the weight in your voice
She smiles and rolls her eyes and
In the darkness says she don't desire him no more
When he comes around

Woo-hoo-hoo

Get up, get up kid
Don't give up the fight
Get up, get up kid
Don't you dare forget me
Get up, get up

Way out, held up under Western Sky
I guess I need to say it aloud
Or I'm afraid that I'll regret
Pretty soon boys, we'll all go our own way
But for now all we need are good friends
Cold nights we will not forget

And way out, held up under Western Sky
I guess I need to say it aloud
Or I'm afraid that I'll regret
Pretty soon boys, we'll all go our own way and

But for now all we need are good friends
Cold nights we will not forget

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in PK's song 1920 evoke a bittersweet nostalgia for the past and a wistful resignation about the future. The opening lines set the scene under a Western sky, perhaps suggesting a moment of reflection in a wide-open landscape. The singer confesses that they need to say something aloud, indicating their need to express their thoughts and feelings before it's too late. The chorus emphasizes the importance of friendship in the face of life's inevitable changes and challenges, particularly during cold nights that will be remembered for their significance.

The second verse shifts the focus to a personal memory that haunts the singer, which appears to involve a woman who belongs to someone else. The weight in her voice implies that she feels conflicted about their relationship, but she ultimately decides to move on from him when he comes around. The repeated phrase "Woo-hoo-hoo" adds an emotional intensity to the song's lament. In the final chorus, the singer once again emphasizes the importance of good friends in the face of the future's uncertainty.

Overall, PK's 1920 is a poignant reflection on the past and a contemplation of the future that is both introspective and universal. The song's emotional power comes from the way it captures the fear of regret and the need for connection in our lives.

Way out, held up under Western Sky
I am far away from everything I know, looking out into the vast open sky of the west.

I guess I need to say it aloud
I need to express what's on my mind or else I'll regret it later.

Or I'm afraid that I'll regret
If I don't say what I feel, I'll always wonder what could have been.

Pretty soon boys, we'll all go our own way
We will all soon be on our own paths, without each other.

But for now all we need are good friends
At the moment, all we need is each other's friendship and support.

Cold nights we will not forget
We will remember the cold, dark nights we spent together.

My brother's home in the darkness
My loved one is alone in the dark, away from me.

Oh I remember how she was still
I remember how she looked and felt when she was near me.

It haunts me in my evenings
My memory of her haunts me when I'm alone at night.

Where will this set me in the stars?
How will this relationship impact my future and destiny?

And I believe that you belong to someone else
I think that you are already in a relationship with someone else.

It's not what you say, but more the weight in your voice
I can tell a lot from your tone, even if you're not saying much.

She smiles and rolls her eyes and
She acts nonchalant and dismissive.

In the darkness says she don't desire him no more
When they are alone, she confesses that she no longer wants to be with him.

When he comes around
When he sees her again.

Get up, get up kid
Encouraging someone to keep fighting.

Don't give up the fight
Don't lose hope or surrender to the challenges you're facing.

Don't you dare forget me
Remember me and our friendship, even when we're apart or times get tough.

And way out, held up under Western Sky
I am still far away, beneath the endless western sky.

But for now all we need are good friends
At this moment, nothing is more valuable than the support and camaraderie of good friends.

Cold nights we will not forget
The memories of the cold, dark nights we spent together will always stay with us.
