recorded March 2017 by Steve Roche at Permanent Hearing Damage in Philadelphia, PA
lyrics
i saw your shape in an oilslick's myrrh
it gleamed chartreuse below dawn's streetlamp
despite the layers of skin you've shed
you'll always be the snake in my river, swimming
i'll always be a lightning rod, in wait
what would make a bell toll static, sustaining?
why must all things be fleeting, and fading?
as a rotten thing
as a garment moth-eaten

stephen patrick dawson - guitar, vocals
sean brown - guitar
tim keating - bass
jason jenigen - drums, vocals
supported by 4 fans who also own “of this too i will surely tire”
All of this apologetic wrist wringing of the vocals is extremely lame. They are awesome. That said, I am a fan of Unsane, Drive Like Jehu, Barkmarket, and Big Black. Strong release. Brien Hindman
