I have seen good cognisance and common sense
Dethroned, cut and pressed with bad intent
Can you see the logic through my ignorance?
I’m coughing up the fingers in my mouth
Praying it won’t go south
But the world would drown me out
Time Slows Down
I’m three thousand miles away, and more than two hours ahead
Of the clock inside your head
Stir crazy and dormant, studying the informant.
I hope it’s not too late
And that you don’t find yourself wrinkled into place in this state
Time slows down
Waiting for good words, and something to confirm
Can I expect you soon to come back down to earth?
Cause If we lost you, it wouldn’t be the first.
Excuse me for acting so concerned!

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
