The Hand 01:00
Hole myself up in a basement If it means I’m away from you I don’t have patience for liars I ain’t in no fucking mood You can play pretend You can have your fun Just give me my corner I’ll do what must be done I’m not extending a hand Take that shit back before I bite I can’t help you, I can’t help myself So take a step back till I leave for the night My colon is growing a garden From all of the sunshine you blow Seeds of destruction are budding, I’m burning My ass is about to explode Leave me alone, don’t waste my time You’re no friend, you’re a coworker of mine I value my seconds, I value my mind You’re no friend, you’re a coworker of mine Please just leave me alone Please just leave me the fuck alone
2.
Trapped in this primal mind Ancient urges, shadows lurking Forced to march on Finger’s on the trigger, I just can’t pull it What’s the bigger threat? Thoughts or the bullet? Urges or my mind? Nature or mankind? What’s the bigger threat? Thoughts or the bullet? Prisoner of my mind Should I do or die? Trapped in this primal mind Ancient urges, shadows lurking Forced to march on Finger’s on the trigger, I just can’t pull it
3.
Dried up beer on my chest I can’t lie, I’ve been depressed No artistic way to address Stuck in routine, it’s all the same to me Rip the stone out the grave Fingers bleed, numb the pain Puff and puff, drink again Stuck in routine, it’s all the same to me Another day, stretch and rise Flip the lights, rub my eyes God, my brain’s fucking fried Drank too much, think I cried Let’s suppress, apply the guise That I don’t want you to die No decency For fellow beings Lies kick through teeth

Unit-01 00:40
Too sad to read, too sad for fun Too sad to sleep, too sad to cum Suck on this cartridge, caress myself numb I’ll chase the shame with a glass full of rum Hedgehog’s Dilemma Beneath quills is love I just can’t hack it right now Isolation is tough Swallow the gummies, I’m zooted and dumb Angels are lurking, got nowhere to run I’m so sick of piloting, I hate Unit-01
5.
The Chain 01:30
Big wigs are so quick to say that a business Is as strong as its weakest link But who forged the chain? Who did? You did You forged the chain Someone who won’t have to maintain the strain Just a brain, no nerves for pain We are the spine, abused vertebrae Safe in your skull while we pop out of place Bulge out of line while we pray for a brace Who forged the chain? Who did? You forged the chain, you did I wanna collapse, to be blatant Let the head bounce like a ball hitting pavement Let’s kick the ladder Let’s watch them fall, powdered wigs red with splatter
6.
Wind it up, throw it down Papers shuffle to the sound Denial, betrayal, human appraisal Killed like cattle on your say-so Strike a pose, fist pump Can’t play us like chumps Hypocrite, lazy fuck Gaslighting prick, you suck Twist and turn, story shifts Placement blames, footing slips Discriminatory piece of shit You’ve lost your rhythm, time to quit Vocal percussion on a whole ‘nother level Coming from my mind It hurts watching this torturous dance Your ass got got this time ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Recalling Digging up bodies Unrestrained sobbing Done, undone, redone Healing Is this healing? Revisiting feelings? Acknowledging what? What’s eating away at me? Memories feasting on flesh Sieve, strain, all holes, no grain, This weight, this pain, my brain’s now meshed

about

Description write-up from our friend, Kenny:

"Weak fuckin Pulse baby! Chicago punk hardcore the way it should be. You want riffs? They got riffs. You want speed? They got speed. You wanna slam? You are GONNA slam there's no doubt about that. Sounds as nasty as they come and you'll be wanting more. Get pissed, slam til you die!"

We couldn't have said it any better.
