Influenced by The Strokes, Interpol, Television, The Velvet Underground. Vaughn Kiln was born in the shadow of Pittsburgh's defunct steel mills, and his music still carries their metallic ring. His father was an ironworker, and Vaughn’s wiry, jagged guitar lines are built on a similar logic of stress and tension. He writes songs in the basement of the row house he shares with his partner of seven years, the metalsmith Elara. These are taut, anxious anthems about staying put while the world moves on, set to the rhythm of freight trains in the night.

Lyrics

[Chorus]
You wanted the silence, you got the silence now.
You stand on the girder and you don't look down.

[Verse 1]
It's 4:51 AM, the sky's a shade of lead.
There's a different city's siren in your head.
The key card plastic's sweating in your palm, your knuckles white,
On the rental's dashboard, just a check-engine light.

[Chorus]
You wanted the silence, you got the silence now.
You stand on the girder and you don't look down.

[Verse 2]
Her last text was just a photo of the switchyard in the rain.
No "are you okay," no "when you coming back again?"
You trace the rebar pattern in the concrete hotel wall,
Thinking this is the quiet you were screaming for after all.

[Bridge]
You thought escape was motion, a freight train across the state.
Turns out it's just a new room where you learn to wait.

[Outro]
The sound of someone else's train.
