”I grew up and got stuck in a town that has nothing to offer but the irreplaceable people I met there and which got me through everything. This song is for Karsten, Felix and Jonny.“

lyrics

never will i miss the day
when i leave this town
in its sleeping state
and all the hands
and enforced smiles
that still pretend
that we share lifes

i hate the birds
and their songs of hope
I hate the trees
and the sounds they grow
I hate this custody
it will never set me free

all that is left of these summer nights
when we were young - dancing to the beat of dying hearts
is glooming dreams so lifeless
fade away so hopeless
in our hearts fireflies found their graves

we are the spirit of this town
we are the ghosts that frown

and once gone we will never be back

paint this town black
pitch black
soul black

On their debut record, the London hardcore upstarts cross-up mosh-ready fare with melancholic ambient passages, weeping guitars, and virtuosic vocal harmonies, but its romantic veneer is much more complicated than it seems. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jan 30, 2019
