Haven't you a conscience? Fighting over blocks of wood Hardly showing your face Covering your phantom blood Haven't you compunction? Trees with ears have vilified Empathetic turnstiles See into each others' souls Thieve of the night Drawing parallel lines Straightened on a crooked page Testing others' senses Will they hear of what you beg Thieve of the night

Pacha Daddy 04:35
Peaceful, I recline Andean wildflower bed He nears my willing side I search for you instead Surrounded on all sides But eyes blind to your face A whisper hot or cold Every time I catch a trace Bliss shows on my lips Once darkness I have chose You start to show yourself Your faithful message blows Neck craned to the sky Caressed delicately Greedy, craving more Stealing pleasure from the breeze Fly me to the moon Drop me off gaze fixed on you Float back through seas of time Meet you at your birth and mine You give me what I need But I'm always wanting more (from you) Fly me to the moon Drop me off 'cause I love you

Cigarette 05:36
Looking deep into her eyes You see yourself reflected, and you know While you are making love You're also making stronger... Hatred hangs above her head Alone in paranoia, and the rain Her waking nightmares plague her Two other lovers in her bed She smokes... Cigarette, after Cigarette, after Cigarette, after Cigarette Demons of the flesh prevail Wandering hands controlled by dark temptations Drowning in impurity Your guilty lungs will not provide What's in her mind? Is it falsified? What's in her mind? Can she prove it? Puffs of smoke They turn to clouds Cloud of smoke They fog the mind

Ocean Sounds 04:20
Engine sounds Louder than your voice Who will hear you now? Clouds move fast Covering the sun How will you see now? So they'll tell you Join our forces We will show you how to live You're a fool All their wisemen say Drop your shield and fight our war So they'll tell you Join our forces We will show you how to live Something's happened here Who are you? Safe inside a box Captive Paint your prison walls With ideas One room at a time They'll crash down So they'll tell you Join our forces We will show you how to live

about

Moon is Nature Thief's debut album, released on November 19th, 2014. The four song EP is home to ethereal, dramatic soundscapes, as well as hard-hitting indie rock.

"Moon is like laying down on a warm, fuzzy rug next to a fire. It’s also like wandering through a forest under the influence of mescaline." -Gelatinous Blog

"Moon integrates... floating, somewhat eerie vocals with simple, fingerpicked acoustic melodies and heavier bouts of hazy, surf-influenced psychedelic guitar, all creating a lulling ebb and flow reminiscent of the steady sway of a train." - Kaitie Todd, Willamette Week

"... a plentiful amount of soulful musicianship that sails along the lines of acoustical psych rock. It is derived in Pacific NW indie-pop but holds a vintage tone in the wallowing melodies and their greatest weapon is something you don’t see too often in these categories, strong lead vocals." -Colin Hudson, The Deli Portland

Digital release available November 21st.

Nature Thief Portland, Oregon

Nature Thief is four young humans' inquiry into the values of the natural and manmade world. Their sound embodies "a flowing, chimerical embrace of harmony-laden dream-pop and the proggier elements of British-Isles-informed folk." (Ned Lannamann, Portland Mercury) ... more
