Compact Disc (CD) + Digital AlbumTwo years after Soft Right, Pet Lions returns with their debut full-length Houses (release date May 10, 2011), bringing warmth, depth, and maturity to the punchy pop of their debut EP. Produced by Neil Strauch (Margot & the Nuclear So and So’s, Iron and Wine, Bonnie “Prince” Billy), Houses shows Pet Lions moving from home to home, sharing auditory real estate with power-pop mainstays Phoenix, art stars Deerhunter and Sonic Youth, and synth nostalgists Tears For Fears and OMD. With Houses, Pet Lions has channeled regret, desire, and hope into a noisy yet melodic whole – for the first time, they feel right at home.

2. When I Grow Old

lyrics
Still frozen forty walls is a home
We'll run through the woods like fake animals
Hydrosis at this time of the year
Won't bring your dark brown eyes over here
East wing like a spy in your estate
Medieval cartography on display
Let go I can wait for you in the hall
Don't care tell me everything you want
Follow me to the coast
I've only been there once before
Front door left open like a ghost
Frontiers we filmed on home video
Upstairs in the bedroom where we grew old
Downstairs in a colorless studio
Back there for you these red cigarettes
Two left with your old Stiv Bators cassettes
Don't go there's so much I still haven't said
Still no do you miss me more I don't know
Follow me to the coast
I've only been there once before
Follow me to the coast
This time we'll stay for months and more
We'll run through the woods like fake animals
Hydrosis at this time of the year
Won't bring your dark brown eyes over here
East wing like a spy in your estate
Medieval cartography on display
Let go I can wait for you in the hall
Don't care tell me everything you want
Follow me to the coast
I've only been there once before
Front door left open like a ghost
Frontiers we filmed on home video
Upstairs in the bedroom where we grew old
Downstairs in a colorless studio
Back there for you these red cigarettes
Two left with your old Stiv Bators cassettes
Don't go there's so much I still haven't said
Still no do you miss me more I don't know
Follow me to the coast
I've only been there once before
Follow me to the coast
This time we'll stay for months and more
