White caps litter the ocean
I turn away from the breeze
You say that I'm trying to cause a commotion,
And just like that, you wreck my day with ease.
Oh how did we arrive here
From something so serene?
But we will sure as hell be back again
What an era to die in
I saw the ocean tear apart
The summer blue has gone and made room for the dark
How do you change your tone and temperament so?
Cos suddenly you disappear
On our left young lovers,
Are leaning in for the kill. Save that for home!
On our right some others are laughing,
But you stare down at your meal.
Sometimes silence is comfortable.
But this is not in that vein.
And the silence says everything
When you've got nothing to say
Nothing to say
I saw the ocean tear apart
The summer blue has gone and made room for the dark
How do you change your tone and temperament so?
Cos suddenly you disappear
You'll always feel the panic if you let your sails find the wind of all your hurt
And you'll find me in the traffic with nothing in my eyes if you don't sort out your words
This wind won't blow forever,
So drop your anchors deep
And the unrelenting tide,
Will soon start to recede
If we're alone or if we're together,
There's always air to breathe.
Fill your lungs my dear
Maybe then we'll be happy
Knockout debut from a Buffalo, New York-based hardcore band who like their riffs sick, their drums fast, and their choruses sticky-sweet. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 28, 2024
The Minneapolis band add a horn section, a running surrealist allegory about walls, and an occasional nod to the elegiac to their electroshocked post-punk. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 4, 2024
