lyrics
twinkle of an eye, caught in the shadow
of a furrowed brow, half-hearted smile
a scene from a play, seen from afar
soft on the eyes, hard on the heart
twinkle of an eye, caught in the shadow
of a furrowed brow, half-hearted smile
years upon years, laid end on end
all the myth of the parade
cut from the ice or well-worn stone
worn down to skin and bone
years upon years, laid end on end
all the myth of the parade
"hold your own hands now
bend your back for ours"
all these forms that we fill
for others' eyes or approval
bind us wholly into shape
reflections we can't recognize
twist of the blade, caught in the light
wink of any eye, without spite
accomplices all when we hold
each other in our own eyes
twist of the blade, caught in the light
wink of any eye, without spite
"hold your own hands now
bend your back for ours"
all these forms that we fill
for others' eyes or approval
bind us wholly into shape
reflections we can't recognize

Scratchy DIY punk from Philadelphia with an impeccable list of inspirations. Think Crass, Flux of Pink Indians, This Heat, and Chronophage. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 22, 2023
Each song on the Portland punk trio's latest album, though spare and minimally produced, bursts with hyperactivity — but it’s a purposeful madness. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jan 21, 2020
Energetic math-rock riffs, gravelly punk vocals, and midwestern emo textures come together in cathartic fashion on the Oregon band's debut. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 11, 2023
Lo-fi indie that recalls the glory days of Shrimper and Shimmy Disc, where rock-solid melodies sit inside rickety instrumentation. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 5, 2022
