lyrics
Craving the disease
cutting off your thumbs
will just shift the pain
Constant haunting hunger has tied itself to you
Biding my time against your self-determination
Tempted the snake, now venom has cursed your veins
I could reach out but our hands wouldn't meet
I could throw a rope but your eyes wouldn't see
I must expect that you might not be around
I must realize your life's melting to the ground
I must come to terms with what I must do
is detach myself from you
Detach myself from you rummaging for the will power
to reconstruct the scourged lie you now live
severing the ties
You despising what you are
I despise what you mean to me
Craving the disease
Cutting off your thumbs
won't cure your starvation
I tremble as I speak,
despised what you mean to me
I guess I am naive to think
I could convince discipline
I now know your change must come from within...
cutting off your thumbs
will just shift the pain
Constant haunting hunger has tied itself to you
Biding my time against your self-determination
Tempted the snake, now venom has cursed your veins
I could reach out but our hands wouldn't meet
I could throw a rope but your eyes wouldn't see
I must expect that you might not be around
I must realize your life's melting to the ground
I must come to terms with what I must do
is detach myself from you
Detach myself from you rummaging for the will power
to reconstruct the scourged lie you now live
severing the ties
You despising what you are
I despise what you mean to me
Craving the disease
Cutting off your thumbs
won't cure your starvation
I tremble as I speak,
despised what you mean to me
I guess I am naive to think
I could convince discipline
I now know your change must come from within...

Murder Construct
by Murder ConstructThe quintet blaze through seven scorching songs including 'Destroy Babylon', 'End of an Error', 'No Saviour' and the incendiary 'I Am That', and leave nothing but bruises behind.
go to album -
More than just orthodox d-beat/crust, UNKIND distill dystopian frustrations and anxieties, and explore deeper shades of darkness within ominous, desolate dirges.
go to album -
Wave after wave of the quartet’s devastating riffs pound hard as tracks 'Horns of Steel,' 'Jezebel,' 'The Scorpion's Last Sting' and the insidious crawl of 'Heavenless' make clear.

I don't mean to be a "first albums only" elitist or anything of the sort since I didn't even discover these guys til maybe a year and change ago, but truth be told- the demo tracks are my favorites despite Deafheaven's undeniable growth and evolution into a broader sort of awesome.
