Trapped in a lens
Sutures in pale skin
The one who's photo never (I) quite (can't) developed (forget)
And you will always haunt me
Trapped in a lens
Phantom in the frame
The starlet who's moment never quite came
How the trauma sings to me
This plastic momento held lovingly within my hands
For years I will gaze
As she silently screams
'Til the breath leaves my lungs
And she comes back for me

Announcing Peace (demo)
02:15

Announcing peace, the easiest bloodline to bathe in
Then wipe off with your noose and the next breath
What is real power?
Who holds my head down?
Is it invisible or a hand attached to my own arm?
You’ll split the continents
To find they’ll reform in the same mess you saw before
You’ll split the continents
And find no relief in new divisions, maps, or compasses
Who holds my head down?
Now I’m caught in the spill just like you will
Just like everyone has guilt
I’ll plead innocent to bide time and see the fuse finish
I’m dying at 24
Just try and stop me
Man your suite and tie
Dressed in a trusted lie
To cast your ballots
For the end of the world

I’m hung over from discordance
Exhausted with dismembering
So I do the only sensible thing
And attack the rhythm that starts the dance
Can you reconstruct the accident
Before the airbag became my death
To quench the ash
Of your harvest consuming me?
Dissolve before there is another word
Into my grossly passive revenge
So I do the only sensible thing
And attack the rhythm that starts the dance
I’m hung over from discordance
Exhausted with dismembering
Diverge so this variant in self-assurance
Can never re-emerge
Surviving only to repeatedly offend
And burn, burn the neighbor’s house again
And let another tithe of skin relinquish
To needless cauterizing

The latest and greatest mathy grind from Brooklyn featuring our very own Ashley on guitar and Vox. The slashy guitars and manic drums will cut you to pieces.

Easily the biggest supporter of the scene. Show some love as they've shown us.

Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly. Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant.

Crashing female-fronted hardcore perfect for afternoon slump revival.
