Hard pass on mom and pop to walk through sliding double doors.
Oppression lines the shelves, as big box dollars break the scale it’s not alright
Another one closed down today. "Free Market" "Democracy".
Buzz words allow monopoly, and lay way to bankruptcy (you'll see)
How can you compete when to the other guy cheats?
Generations look for work, as options become few and far
Between these bogus fucking cogs, just multitudes of useless tools
This is no grand prediction, just simple observation
I'm breaking my back to relate to "playing fair" not "legislate"
While I search for sympathy, Hugo Bosses piss on me
And how can we compete when the hand that feeds overeats
Clearance racks filled with garbage made with tortured hands, worked into early graves
Bottom bucks brought by slavery from foreign lands, just to throw it away

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
Berkely duo Axe serve up four catchy, heavy synth-punk rippers inspired by campy horror flicks and old-school heavy metal. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 28, 2021
