Crooked Hands

Business is slow when you're on your knees
You embrace the fear of God
True foundations stand stronger weather
Will not disregard or let it rest
Even if my chest seized up, I’d make it to the end
As my lungs, fill with tar, Il never make amends
Dear sender, I didn't know you, our time is precious, it's torn between us
Preserve the old, abort the new, no elegies, taken with you
When all is said, when all is done, I'l hold myself in humility -
When vultures come, to pick your bones, what is said for worth?
Legible to play the priest
With his wealth of lies
Slight of hand, so slight of hand..
Guilty to be judged
Business is slow when you're on your knees
You embrace the fear of God
True foundations stand stronger weather
Will not disregard or let it rest
Will not let it rest
I have lost the words to say “nothing left”
Stay true to what

This life provides no sympathy for me
I need to make peace with my mortality
Dethroned, cast out on the songs our fathers raised
In beds with thieves, rejoice no heroes praised
Ink, heart, blood, pen
Honesty made a martyr of me
For what is at stake, watch it burn
Tear arms sycophants, pouring down every plague
Tyrants and spores in rapture salvation is made
The ghost of truth held in clandestine labs
Strike one, strike two, this misery is all I have
What I am, is falling away, my sanity is a nightshade
Say it once, say it again, like the ink in my heart, like the blood in this pen

Are our lives, our biggest disguise - masked in deceit, just to repeat..
Well planes will fall out of the sky, these snakes will take back what is theirs
A knife in the chest is far too easy to repair
We are a generation that will feed itself
We are a generation that will need itself
We are a generation that will eat itself
We are a generation that fucked itself
I just performed surgery on myself, I shattered a thousand promises
I cut away my pleasantries, and slept off most the pain
I will talk a thousand words
I will barter a thousand hurts
I will suffice in this
I will fail in what I give
We are a generation that will feed itself
We are a generation that will eat itself

Nausea

Im sleepless... too far gone tonight, it crawls up inside of me
Were just coping, not commanding - just like the way of my life
Hope stains these walls - pollinate spores - the skylines aren’t for us
In mires, in dirge, Im sick, so sick
I will catch alight, over the flames, in the sky
Hear my words break
Show you this frame
Structure our sense
Fight off sickness
In scars I sit
The hope, war in our blood
Blood shot eyes
-with-
I'm failing to try
And as I sat staring at you, I could (see)feel the fear trembling in your legs
I opulate, you ovulate

Matriarch

Jester in the court of fools you hunted me dry
Set me on your mantle and bled me dry
Flavour of the month, in the corpse of divinity
Champions of lust, you sidelined the sin in me
Of everything you were meant to be, meant nothing to me
Your lips parted so partially in disbelief
We have sown the seeds of sin, wash me in your guilt
Use this for personal gain, the king must die
My white goddess, Im covered in truth and bile
From the womb spew forth the dogs of war and kill the king

This wasn’t a war, this was matricide
Im buying tomorrow so I can live today
New abortions, see this through
Kill what is inside, bleed it out
Sea of teeth / bleak eyes
This wasn’t a war, this was matricide
Im buying tomorrow so I can live today

Awesome psychedelic sludgy metal with some post-metal influences that build and morph often enough to stay fresh throughout each of the lengthy runtimes. Highly recommended for anyone looking for some psych-tinged sludgy goodness!

Misanthropic hardcore punk from NYC that galvanizes jagged guitars and dense production towards satisfying mayhem.

Terrific, marauding post-punk that will thrill fans of Idles with its pairing of cutting riffs and wry spoken/sung lyrics.
