Los Campesinos! – Baby I Got The Death Rattle Lyrics 14 years ago
i think this song is about gareth sucking off strangers.

"Baby I got the death rattle" - Gareth is describing the sound of him choking as the semen accumulates in his throat. ("A death rattle is a medical term that describes the sound produced by someone who is near death when saliva accumulates in the throat",)

"the girdle of venus got me got me down on my knees."
His "fate" (the whole palm-reading thing, girdle of venus) is to get "down on his knees" (and suck off other men)

And of course;
"And I chewed my only necktie, From the metal frame of my bed, Where I tied your wrists together, Spent all night givin', oh, you get the message"

So he's obviously been tying Men to his bed and spent all night giving them head

Los Campesinos! – Every Defeat A Divorce (Three Lions) Lyrics 14 years ago
i think this song might be about football (three lions = england's emblem) and garth might also be drawing a parallel between his relation with a football team and a girl with the divorce thing

"if he hasn't blown the whistle, then it isn't quite the end" refers to the referee blowing a whistle to end the game

Los Campesinos! – We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed Lyrics 14 years ago
This song is about a homosexual relationship that happened between Gareth and Sparky Deathcap, "we are beautiful, we are doomed" - they know that their relationship is beautiful but it is doomed because they're both men. "We kid ourselves there's future in the fucking, but there is not fucking future" They kid themselves into thinking the relationship can continue while having sex, but they know deep down there's no future for them. "we both know your heart's not in it" - Sparky was really reluctant at first, I think he may have been straight when Gareth first made a move on him.

"You said he got his teeth fixed" is an obvious reference to Sparky's song Berlin Syndrome

That's just my interpretation of it anyway everyone interprets things differently but I'm pretty sure this is what the song's about.
