"The Librarians Are Hiding Something"
RELEASE DATE: NOVEMBER 06, 2012
The title track is the lead song off their upcoming full-length and is a great representative of the new songs. It's a catchy mid-tempo masterpiece, driven by an irresistible melody, and accented with a touch of 70's fuzz. The b-side is the last song recorded with their former bassist Spike Slawson and features his silky backing vocals.

Swingin' Utters
The Librarians are Hiding Something [7-inch] (2012)
Fat Wreck Chords
Considering they went away for seven years, it's a wonder fans are getting more Swingin' Utters now, let alone so soon after 2011's Here, Under Protest (which is to say nothing of the members' assorted other projects). With another record already in the can, the band is going the single route with Fat Wreck to drum up interest. "The Librarians are Hiding Something," taken from a forthcoming new full-length entitled Poorly Formed, picks up where Protest left off.
That is to say, a little slower and more deliberate. A little less punk and a little more straight up rock. Regardless of how one labels it, "Librarians" is a solid track. Even though the Utters have tweaked their sound over the years, there's still a pretty fair set of expectations at work here. Luckily, the band does not disappoint.
B-side "Rude Little Rooms" is the last song the band recorded with ex-bassist Spike Slawson (of Me Firsts and the Gimme Gimmes), and it's somehow even more laid back than "Librarians." The Utters are gradually easing into middle age, at least, compared to their other bands past and present. With Poorly Formed due out next year, the band's future looks good too.

From plyrics.com:
She said nice guys are the ones with the defect
And skin-tight has always been incorrect
She reads books under illegal table legs
It don't look good until he gets down and begs
We'll be watching until she detects us
That's our cue to move out of Texas
The beat up truck it won't even start
It all makes sense cuz it's missing a part
When she shoot shoot shoot shoot shoots
And I drip drip drip drip drip
And then I drop
The librarians are hiding something
The librarians are hiding something
The librarians are hiding something
The librarians are hiding something
She said you're never alone with a schizo
Picked up the phone, said "Is not! Is so!"
She's here to stay, I'm here for a visit
The other line will know ... "Who the fuck is this?"
Just then I make out the sign
And the small print on her book's spine
One says we'll never close
The other one belongs to Edgar Allen Poe's
When she shoot shoot shoot shoot shoots
And I drip drip drip drip drip
And then I drop
Oh librarians
Contrarians
Can't fly on a wing
Oh librarians
Barbarians
Are liking nothing
Which leads me to believe one thing
The librarians are hiding something
The librarians are hiding something
The librarians are hiding something
The librarians are hiding something
