Sins of the Father 04:42
lyrics

Hack through the vines that stall my movement Climb up the walls of the castle Push to the edge on the highest summit And fall into the forest below I'm still bleeding for your deeds You're free but I am on my knees Damned Taking fire Damned I'm still bleeding Slide through the crowds that sense my presence Look far away from their glances Stinging from the bites of accusation Curse the old man and his ashes I'm still bleeding for your deeds You're free but I am on my knees Damned Taking fire Damned I'm still seeing red Hack through the vines that stall my movement Climb up the walls of the castle Push to the edge on the highest summit And fall into the forest below I'm not grieving for your fate You're gone but I am on my way Damned Bleeding fire Damned

Awake 04:17
lyrics

Drops of blood Stain the white tile Leading to Catastrophe of life This is faith Damning you to die Your own hate Keeping you alive Awake to the sound of death Sorrow's cares, snapping of your neck Nothing will ever be the same These hands wringing out your name Shreds of pain Hoping this will end All your shame Your decency is spent Your own voice Damning you to die This your choice Fall or cling to life Awake to the sound of death Sorrow's cares, snapping of your neck Nothing will ever be the same These hands wringing out your name

lyrics

Hold back, drop out, shut down, blow it off Close the blinds and turn on the tv If I don't bother to pretend to take part No one can ever say I gave up Cheap shit hit sink, weak brew I don't drink Broke (drunk) all the time but I still have standards If I don't bother to pretend to take part No one can ever say I gave up You can't see me here because I'm Lost inside a hollow and I'm Doing what you wish you were, I'm Following my dreams See your life through a different lens Reconsideration begins Control is a fantasy The context in which you're free You can't redefine my path, I'm Savouring the flavour that I'm Leeching from what little life I'm Told that I can feel See your life through a different lens Reconsideration begins Control is a fallacy The context in which you're free Porters, stouts, bocks, and bitters Unlike when I am selecting Run of the mill future leaders These decisions have consequences It matters See your life through a different lens Reconsideration begins Control isn't meant to be See, your life isn't yours to live There's only one vote you have: The way that you spend money We live in beerocracy

Repetitive Motion 04:56
lyrics
buy track
Life is a choice As long as you're ignorant Flittering before you The wings of LSD Bleeding dollars From your open wrists Dissolve and disappear Filling the well You have a voice But only you can hear Flittering before you On wings of LSD Invisible Society Oiling the gears That construct your cage Senses deprived Repetitive motion Invisible Society See it as it really is See it all as it really is See it as it really is See it all as it really is: shit! Invisible Society

Wag the Dog 04:21
lyrics

Lost my place in my mind Digging from behind the eyes Frozen in past regrets These will help pass the time Face the truth if I can Staring at my skinless hands Shake the thought, wag the dog Sorting out my last demand I've followed you so that I can have peace I'm killing myself With a breath of relief My future is carved In a petrified tree Tomorrow is the only thing That terrifies me Hey, Hey, Hey, I...

Employee of the Month 02:57
lyrics

Grip the moment Grab onto anything that you can Out the window They left us here, left us to rot Steal the truck Smash the grill Throw the cones What the fuck! It's not that I can't see The irony Of you and me Providing security It's not that I can't see The irony Of you and me Destroying their property Hit the pavement Push this thing as fast as it goes Raid the office They trusted us, oh god they trusted us Steal the truck Smash the grill Throw the cones What the fuck! It's not that I can't see The irony Of you and me Providing security It's not that I can't see The irony Of you and me Destroying their property I just don't care I just don't care!

Your Beer Sucks 03:03
lyrics

Been drinking shitty beer for days I drown to death in IPAs My caveman constitution fails Beneath these mediocre ales I dream of tasting decent brews Feels like it's something That I'll never, ever do (Your beer sucks) Your beer sucks! (Your beer sucks) Your beer really sucks Just chugged a porter Made me hurl I flushed that swill And watched it swirl My caveman constitution fails Beneath these horrifying ales I dream of tasting decent brews Feels like it's something ThatI'll never, ever do (Your beer sucks) Your beer sucks! (Your beer sucks) Your beer really sucks

Filth The tile floor A locked door In view of my rotting corpse Never Taken The times that I wanted more Hanging like a wreath I don't know Last human debris Failure, symptom, dead weight Dismal system My fate Stares The people Police will Zip me up before I go Public Appearance On my way to the morgue Last human debris I don't know Hanging like a wreath Failure, symptom, dead weight Dismal system My fate Dead by misery I don't know Fought against the beast I don't know Know there was no key I don't know Last human debris

Ociffer, what do you mean? Don't rrremember hitting anybody Could have happened, I admit: I wasn't paying attention 130 down the interstate Watching a DVD Making a minor effort Not to fall asleep Fuck, whatever, man Eighteen wheels of apathy I glance at the mirrors... Dispassionately I see Cars spinning in dust I crack open another beer 130 down the interstate Watching some TV Making a minor effort Not to fall asleep Fuck, whatever, man Eighteen wheels of apathy Fuck, whatever, man Eighteen wheels of apathy

Small Experience 05:13
lyrics
buy track
Give forth, take back Love was only ever confusion Walk tall but don't stare Never step on anyone's toes "No, don't tread on me No, don't you ever tread on me..." I'll never question, never do it again No, please, don't you hurt me "To sink below all my principles I gain peace, but it kills me" I'll never face it, never look at myself No please, don't you hurt me "It's not a problem, I can stop when I want With ease I'm no junkie" Worthless sublife, My own small experience tells me. Trust these thin hands? Never have they ever availed me! "No, don't tread on me No, don't you ever tread on me...." I'll never question, never do it again No, please, don't you hurt me "To sink below all my principles I gain peace, but it kills me" I'll never face it, never look at myself No please, don't you hurt me "It's not a problem, I can stop when I want With ease I'm no junkie" Arms wide, face grim Shivering and losing my balance Three times, big lie Finally I know what I'm missing I'm no junkie

We'd like to thank the breweries that sustained us during these sessions:

Our lyrics are sardonic and silly. Try not to identify with them too much.

Dynamic Range: DR11
You may have noticed that the volume of these recordings is a little quieter than the other rubbish on your mp3 player. This
is intentional. Most of the shit you like has been brickwalled until it sounds like lifeless wallpaper. You probably didn't notice,
except for the fact that it probably makes your ears tired after about 20 minutes. We care about our music and about your
ears, so we didn't do that. If you care to learn more, just Google "the Loudness War," and maybe YouTube some examples.
If this is all a bunch of nerdy bullshit, we're sorry for putting you out and making you play with your dumb volume rocker.
