Descending weightless I’m no stranger to the burden of night
A distant view, a far, beyond the loneliness of every time
We sleep paralysed into the twilight hours only for another broken dream of life around the sun
I step through the ages of death rise
Beyond the gates of fire, into the realms of ghosts
From the day I was born I've been waiting to die
Hung from the neck by the years spent wasted
In the wake of the night
I was hypnotised
But in the land of sleep
Delirium encompassed me
My head was inside out
Everything was upside down
I feel the change in my shadow
Stretch as the sun, collapse and dies
Between gravity's grace
I’m on my knees with arms spread wide
If there is only one way to know
For what awaits, beyond this life
Then I’ll trade it all
For just a little peace of mind
I'm sorry I missed out on this band 'til now. Landscapes sound excellent, a must for any fan of UKHC in the first decade of the century. I'd put them on a playlist with early Gallows, Alexisonfire, Comeback Kid, Dead Swans, Lay It On The Line, Mercury League and HHH. Burning Flag Designs
The Minneapolis band add a horn section, a running surrealist allegory about walls, and an occasional nod to the elegiac to their electroshocked post-punk. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 4, 2024
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
