withered old bones watch the sun rise I swear I could see your eyes in the trees watching waiting consume consume consume consume devour me whole and swallow me in your earth shake the trees down to their roots and burn the whole world down burn it all down

I can feel my heartbeat pulsing between my teeth the pattern has changed the ends are frayed how strange how strange can you hear the sound of the hum bouncing off black water? set like glass against motionless rain traversing through madness with invisible lines the beauty in desolation changes something inside of you desolation colonizes you from the outside in that's how madness begins that's how madness begins

Control 04:10
a test of fragile trust a test of curiosity a test of fascination walking side by side with fear do we prefer to be ignorant or just unsafe? I prefer to hide myself I relinquish control I relinquish control I hesitate only briefly some part of me wants to see the remnants trying to regroup logic all that matters is survival all that matters is survival

wasting time on death worrying what might not come concentrate on what's left to you what can you do when your five senses aren't enough? what's left to do? too close to the center to pull back and see the shape we were neither what we had been nor what we would become once we reached our destination I am walking forever seeking is walking is seeking I am all by myself the trees are not trees the birds are not birds I am not me I am not me but just something that has been walking for a long time seeking oblivion

No Tomorrow 04:12
If you don't have answers it's because you still don't know what questions to ask with useless instruments broken methodology selfish motivations awash with emotion I become the crest I become the crest of a building wave that never crashes to shore no tomorrow

I am not me but a faint pulse trying to regroup logic too close to the center only for a brief moment I am not me I am not me walking forever blind walking forever blind I am not me but a faint pulse trying to regroup logic only for a brief moment I am not me but a faint pulse trying to regroup logic too close to the center too close to the center walking forever blind

The Preacher 05:51
There was a man so wise, he prophecised loyalty succumbs with time. He marched out into the desert, and burnt out both of his eyes. Eternity will always take back its own. Our bodies stir these waters but briefly. And when he knew his eyes were gone, his fall was not a small one. He offered no complaint, we did but build his pedestal, a narrow and a tall one. Here lies a toppled god. What can we say of this? He occurred, yet he is not. Eternity will always take back its own. Our bodies stir these waters but briefly. We have eternity. We have but now. This is eternity. Eternity is but now. He occurred, yet he is not.

about

Noise.

This album was written, performed, recorded, and mixed completely from scratch during the month of February 2021 as part of the RPM Challenge. These songs were ultimately completed in 17 days and feature my take on a more stripped back noise rock approach influenced by the likes of Unwound/Drive Like Jehu/Metz combined with my usual brand of mathy skramz.

Free downloads are encouraged over digital purchase, while purchase of the cassette bundle will result in my undying love for bringing me one step closer towards total world domination.
