about

Not a Good Judge, the first single from our upcoming album We’re Trying Our Best is about getting out of your own way when you don’t believe you deserve the best.

“Not a Good Judge is about pushing past doubt, even when it’s your own. Sometimes you have to put anxiety in its place. It’s about listening to past or future versions of yourself that had or will have more faith in your abilities than you have in the moment.” ❤ Joy

lyrics

When I set out to try my hand at this
I think I thought it possible
And maybe it actually is
Just need a break from my inner voice
Cuz I'm not a good judge
I'm not a good jury
But with my heart and my fears aside
I think I'll have a chance
If I see what's to come
I know I'll leave in a hurry
So I just suck it up and close my eyes
So I can have a chance
Yeah I just suck it up and close my eyes
So I can have a chance
It doesn't matter
What I say to myself anymore
All the buzz is confusing me
So if I wanna know the truth
I'll ignore my feelings
No matter how real they seem to be
Cuz I'm not a good judge
I'm not a good jury
But with my heart and my fears aside
I think I'll have a chance
If I see what's to come
I know I'll leave in a hurry
So I just suck it up and close my eyes
So I can have a chance
Yeah I just suck it up and close my eyes
So I can have a chance
Cuz I'm not a good judge
I'm not a good jury
But with my heart and my fears aside
I think I'll have a chance
If I see what's to come
I know I'll leave in a hurry
So I just suck it up and close my eyes
So I can have a chance
Yeah I just suck it up and close my eyes
So I can have a chance
Yeah I just suck it up and close my eyes
So I can have a chance
Yeah I just suck it up and close my eyes
So I can have a chance

I love that the guys' harmonies have more focus in this album; it's a very different balance than Expert In A Dying Field, but I like it! Kirin Martin

An easy-to-love combination of emo and jangle pop, the first full album from Spirit Night in eight years feels bathed in a golden glow. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 8, 2023

Entirely analog, lush melodic pop with a tender heart from L.A. artist Human Barbie sounds bigger than the bedroom project it is. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 22, 2020

This Toronto group's sound unabashedly hearkens back to the bouncy indiepop of the Darling Buds and the Primitives. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 11, 2019
