Under the Harshest Light

We were born astride the grave
The unavoidable price to pay
Under the harshest light we cower
Await our final hour

My mind is tired, my body is sick
My hands are too weak to grab ahold of it
I don’t think it even matters
I hope that it doesn't matter
Do you think it even matters?
Nothing really matters anymore
You could swallow me whole
That’d be too easy, you know
How much deeper can this hole go?
Not holding on to much at all
What do I deserve?
It’s hard to imagine how you feel
What did you expect?
How much did it really change your life?

Dwell

I’ll just dwell on it
Repeat the same mistakes
And let another one in
I’ll just dwell on it
Been this way so long
Forever in the wrong
All effort unrequited
Too late
It’s been decided now
Ignore everything
So what’s the point of anything?
Never escaping
My patience is slowly waning
I can’t stop fixating

Cleansing your hands of filth in the end
Only to stain again and again
Take all we can
We know how this goes
Knife in the back
More villains than heroes
We will all be sinking together in the end
We knew this was coming
Infinite decay
Only worms remain
We are human parasites
Feed until the last one dies
We’ve been feeding for so long
It’s too late to stop now
Wither away
Embrace decay

Returning

Drift away from me
Bury the feeling
Pretend there is an end
With fewer wounds to mend
Pretend there is an end
Drift away from me
Fully content with suffering
Weaved into the fabric of my being
Pretend there is an end

Merci Déhà for the download code. Lots of bands use these ingredients – pretty female vocals over doomy guitars always sounds good, but usually that's where the ideas run out. That isn't the case here. Each song is packed with ideas and evolutions, genres and references it's boring to list but not at all to listen to. A pleasure to have been introduced to this.

So much joy in listening to this band. Each listen is a new adventure, a quality I've found only in several bands. Keep kickin!

Whip smart songwriting fuels the new record from Fake Palms, which errs on the side of melody and features a host of Toronto music buds.

And Those Who Were Seen Dancing
