Running from your law
Feel them squirming in your jaw
Hold them tight under your mighty pen
Your only friend.
Breaking your own back
It's denial that you lack
Slipping through the cracks
Found my heart attack.
Time will take it's toll
Wipe your mind, replace your soul
Keep you holding on until the bitter end
Then spit you out again
Not a single word
Not a single thought absurd
I'm a coward in your herd
Dress me up disturb
Rolling towards your tomb
It can all be over soon
Just accept your fate and don't defend
No love, no life to spend
But you'll know that I'm at peace
In the cracks beneath your feet
I had my sweet release
Lose me in the trees
Broke my heart in thick in thin
Take your ghosts and steal your skin
And my face conceals a grin
I'm seeding through the sin.

Lo-fi indie that recalls the glory days of Shrimper and Shimmy Disc, where rock-solid melodies sit inside rickety instrumentation. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 5, 2022
Sydney group Bloods decamped to Seattle to make this brief, punchy EP that pairs punk attitude with sky-high hooks. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 20, 2020
