eons of people walking upright
but o’ i need to be myself
forever rage, and two too-thin legs
fucked up knees, and a need to relate
keeps me abreast of all the pain in the room
but i’m floundering, drowning, in groupthink
SO I BITE BACK
i pound and i pound
blustering, violent,
screaming at the ground (MOVE)
at times, unable to think, hear, or see,
but everything — everything is worth the feeling
increasing myself
reflecting multitudes
cannibal’s spirit
unable to push through
MAKING MYSELF
unable to learn that from anything else
if it exists, it’s in relation to me — even the pain in the room
i see the waiting
waiting for the chance to spin around and break the legs of that new-found man
anything for that fucking feeling
tear down cities of You
until the only thing left standing is My Self
myself
A friend with a reliably fine musical taste posted this album on FB and I wasn't disappointed. Love the guitar sound and the passionate vocals (melodic enough to not pass as screamo or whatever). Punk rock spirit yet with a lot of dynamics (definitely a yes to the Dischord reference) and compact songs that won't leave your head for a long time. Many many
great tunes on here but for the moment USMA and Lay Low have to be my favorites! Great band, very happy to have found them! perpendikel
Pennsylvania straight-edge punks solidify their mournful, anthemic brand of hardcore with three powerhouses guaranteed to stir up the pit. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 11, 2023
