new buildings downtown
fancy high rise near the shore
put their generators on the roof
they know what they’re in for
do you?
learned helplessness
made avoidance like a science
don’t read it anymore
nobody does a thing
someone please make the first move

Dreg Heap

choking on the air
throwing up the water
pissing heavy metals
breathing asphalt dust
microplastic in my bloodstream
an ever present grime
no urgency
lifespan optional
few years of rounding error
living standards for sale
a million miles of wire
crisscrossing buried trash
a city built on fill
decrepit train derails
faux luxury backdrop
shit pipe flows in reverse
no urgency
solution optional
out here in the dreg heap
stagnation equals profit
when the salt swamp rises to take its due
may every parasite feel it too

Hollow

woke up sore and scraped out
organs dried up and eyes wet
my bed a lake of cold sweat
a void too deep to think about
should I dare to reconstruct
the fighting in my sleep
the grinding in my teeth
lest it all come back to me
realized I’ve been holding my breath
but I don’t know how long
and I’m so hollowed out
at the cusp of a breakthrough
but something looms overhead
an ancient slithering limbic dread
begins to hum a familiar tune
I feel its gaze, its eyes on my neck
no will or energy to redirect
and when it starts to lick its lips
everybody can see except for me

Coping Mechanism
05:05
|

|
a pound of flesh for curse redressed
a better pact to pay your debts
a sharpened edge to make the rent
a ritual to help forget
a poison pill to quell your fright
a fantasy to escape your plight
a better strain to sleep at night
a bleach for mind with dim blue light
say you will
I know you won’t
a pattern made for lizard brain
a brand new feed to go complain
a camera lens immune to shame
a shiny void to house your pain
a novel way to stay at ease
a better hack with new technique
a solid wall to keep the peace
a balled-up fist with no release
say you will
I know you won’t
it’s my nature too
but it’s getting hard to watch
I’ve become just a little suspicious
that everyone has a mundane death wish
it’s not something I care to admit
but I think that I’m resigned to it

Strobe Light Shadow Play
by Lower Automation
Brilliantly unhinged hardcore-inspired songs that splinter expectations to smithereens with their split-second rhythm changes & wild vocals.
go to album
Searing heavy indie that’s as brutal as it is melodic, with honeyed vocal harmonies swimming through stormy riffs.

Zasługuję na istnienie

Polish trio Melisa combine elements of noise rock, grindcore, mathcore, and sludge with lyrics that balance between poetic and political.

A wonderfully corrosive album that oozes style. FACS really congeal into an act with direction on this record. Fantastic
