16
It began with a rare invitation to stay
In the City, where all the cool people played
She was 16 and dying for something new
There’s no fear when you don’t have a clue
Finds everything she’s looking for, plus a little bit more
Watch out girl you’re what he’s looking for
She’s not going to let that stop her
Watching all the people going crazy at night
She’s not going to let that stop her
Gonna let the city take a bite
She’s not going to let that stop her
At the show she will be all right
Finds her place as the band begins to play
He wanted her grateful and eager to please
That’s the role that a girl’s supposed to play
But this girl’s got her own aspirations and she
Pays no mind as she makes her own way
Finds everything she’s looking for, plus a little bit more
Watch out girl he’s got some plans in store
Hey hey hey She’s on her way Yeah
Hey hey hey She’s on her way Yeah
Hey hey hey She’s on her way,
She’ll be ok, her turn to play, this is her day
Whoa

Wrecked the World
Is it too late?
No it’s not too late to stick your head in the sand
We say we care, that we’ll fix it all
Can’t be that bad, it’s ok to stall
Not just my fault, don’t have time to deal
But did you hear, this time the fire’s for real
I use bamboo instead of paper and I might take the bus
Trying to be a better person kinda gives me a rush
For all the good it would do
The whole west coast goes up in flames
Can’t fix the damage between the hurricanes
Ice caps Disappearing, making sea levels rise
Still got my car, still got my Prime, just gotta
Wade through my guilt for the prize
For all the good it would do
Is it too late?
No it’s not be too late to stick your head in the sand
We know it’s scary but what can you do
Can’t seem to fix it but what else is new?
We wrecked the world, with the damage still untold
Race of a cliff because we’re all wearing blindfolds
Will I stop feeling bad if I buy organic?
Drove my Prius to a climate march - will that help the planet?
For all the good it would do
Toxic waste, another oil tanker spills
The corporate world can’t even track its kills
I still fly as if I need to, just can’t stop buying plastic
A government that gave a shit would be fantastic
For all the good it would do
It’ll be alright
It’ll be alright
It’ll be alright
It’ll be alright
Right right right
Right right right right
Right?

I saw them in 1991 or 1992 opening for some band in Wash. DC. Had never heard of Autoclave before and was thoroughly blown away. 30 years later still am.

This album is amazing from start to finish! It's got such a cool, poetic, punk rock vibe. Hits the soul, for real. Please come play in Miami, Florida soon! Thank you for your art!

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!!

A bite-size serving of power pop from a rising Virginia band equipped with three different guitarists; riff snobs won't be disappointed.

Australian shambolic pop that uses the generic trope of deadpan ennui to evoke bleak dystopia rather than the usual sunny slacker world.

D.C. art punks BRNDA serve up whatever they want on "Do You Like Salt?"
