1.
This is the clear cut we need when a mountain is covered in trees; And we have an axe to grind. Tell me does it even make a sound when your mother cries from abuse. We burn the hand of her violent man.
2.
Whittle away until there's nothing left. Fade to white and black again. The shape of things does not reveal until the rain has dried. Hot blades on soft flesh will end this once and for all. Confess your sins and pay the man who won't see again until the rain begins.
3.
My voice doesn't carry as far as I want, so I drop my words on sheets. Follow the sounds to the center of town. Black and red for the blood of angry ones to orange glow where it all begins and ends.
4.
The cracks in the ice don't sound bad from here, skating high above the rest. The ice will break! Can you hear me scream from the reservoir sand, "your lives are in your hands. "
5.
I can't see the sun below the horizon. Twilight strangles the earth in silhouette. Now I won't be going home.
6.
Biting my words but they don't even reach my mouth. Trying to catch my breath, talking in circles and circling my grave. I'm dying to know what I'm trying to say.
7.
Old man thinks for a second, asking why. I think it sounds like rain. I could but wrong, that's just the way it is. Old man thinks for a second. It sounds so quiet. Old man dies saying this isn't what we wanted.
8.
I love this place where I stand. It's my home. It had been for so long and will be forever. The moving pictures brought me to you, and i can't get you out of my veins.
9.
You're the reason that they suffer It doesn't stop when you look away Horrendous pain and you hold the knife You choose to slaughter You choose to maim You choose to rape You perpetuate An endless cycle of Disgusting torture Torture
10.
If I give up now I'll accomplish what I'm worth I am nothing Why even try when I've only ever failed I'm sorry I can't succeed. I have no purpose If I give up now I'll accomplish what I'm worth Nothing. Useless failure I am nothing

Falter - I 01:43
I'm not okay. I feel fucked up. Miserable. Lost. Out of touch. Vulnerable. I want to leave. They say it gets better. Not for me.
12.
Can't connect with anyone Disconnect with myself Mind races in my sleep No escape. No relief Whirlwind of confusing thoughts No direction. Fucking lost Endless nightmare Do you know what it's like Living every day Not knowing what's wrong with you Having no one to relate Endless nightmare I can't wake up I was born wrong There's no place for me

about

Neither of these bands is what you think they are, and this is a hardcore / grind record of exceptional depth. In a genre where everyone seems to be clambering over each other to produce the most uniformly harsh release, both of these bands know that a truly pummeling record needs a range of approaches to stay engaging all the way through. The result is a collection of songs with no dead time, a terrifying monster with the range and complexity to keep our focus, afraid of what it might do if we turn our heads.

Split recording between BOROUGHS and FALTER Hydrogen Man Records. Limited to 300 on black vinyl with hand numbered jackets.
