It's not reassuring falling asleep with so much on your mind
And waking up with nothing but loneliness
It's getting harder to recognise my own face
When it changes everyday, greyer than the last
Hands in pockets, dead moonlit streets
Salt stained eyes, alone times I hate
Head in hands once again
Summer came and so did we
I don't think we were ever meant to be
It's never been a part of my life
Especially yours
My sky came crashing down when you said goodbye
The skies turned grey for the world to fear
This room has never been so silent since we both shed our skin
A ripped out page that no one read
With all the words I wish I said
Blinded by the traffic that passes me by
In the darkest nights you caught my eye
Tonight I scream for violence, for you
I generally appreciate the album by album move away from hardcore towards extreme metal. Yet for me personally, this is where the balance is perfect. Kind of like Metallica's Ride the Lightning: subsequent albums were more sophisticated and complex, yet less intense, too. Great to come back to, again and again. jornfin
This album is haunting, beautiful, and cathartic. One of the best post-black metal albums out there. I bought a cd on Discogs, but needed the vinyl. Доберман Сатз
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
Musically this feels more experimental for La Dispute reminding me of their Here, Hear releases. Very atmospheric and easy to lose your self in. Perfect for the next time you’re contemplating your existence. (Also found out the guitarist builds his own pedals and used them on this record; neato!) Mikey
