about

Recorded in our grimy dungeon of a rehearsal space at the 'infamous' 1000 island avenue storage facility.
In the midst of tracking several demos (this song in particular) we suffered a flood in our room (most music gear isn't waterproof) , a robbery ($5000+ in gear stolen), and a hard drive fail (wish i remembered how to play those songs...)

These are the sounds of where we were at that point.
These are the sounds of being fed up.
We thought we were angry at society, the news, politics, ex-lovers etc... Looking back, it turns out we were really just angry at ourselves.
We wanted to be somewhere else, wanted to be doing more.. we wanted to make something different than RBZ & T$E but remain true to ourselves. This is what came out.

mixed and mastered at the Drury Hotel new years eve 2019.

lyrics

Hey mother, I've got a secret I want to share
There's a darkness rich like oil and black like ink inside my ribs
I'm certain its not the Holy Ghost or a white light...
Searching for for a new Jerusalem or a child to bare these sins...
I've tried
Hey father, should I become a soldier
And fight and kill and right the will of my country's soil?
With dirt in my eyes I am purified, in the waters of hell I bathe...
I've tried
I pretend that I'm a land lord
but the locks I cant change are in my head
I'm a stray filthy shepard, I set my flock ablaze to light up my way
Are you a martyr, a servant, or a statistic?
Preaching false sermons spreading doctrines of nonsense
A run-on sentence, covered in dog shit
I slaughter my self because it's affordable... this week
