One Pound

mpbartow The album is replete with heavy riffs and an incredible bass sound. Overall, there is an energy and immediacy to the compositions, but they never feel rushed; rather, they swagger on with a comfortable self-assuredness that makes repeat listening a joy. I would strongly recommend, especially FFO Kylesa Favorite track: One Pound.

Master of Alchemy This debut from Swarmer has the intense raw rage of punk together with the weight of metal, and wanders leftfield enough to demand my attention. The lyrical subject matter is pretty eclectic and so is always interesting. I love Courtney Blair's striking retro artwork aesthetic of monotones and duotones with coarse and unique screen rulings, greatly appealing to my reprographic days (RIP), and remind one of the classic cover art of The Smiths. Favorite track: Burrowed.

Covenant 03:24
Covenant White to red Color of omission Promises, broken bread Wet your tongue Flesh and blood Promise in ignorance Eternal indenture Covenant White to red Color of omission Strike your thumb across your throat Show your sign Covenant Cover sin, white clothes White robes, caps veils, and a lettuce patch Blood Oath

One Pound 04:51
Draw it in close body Now it bends, knock out Take it down, it falls This has come to pass Fading, undying Hate that you've sown Jaded, undying This has come to pass Pain that you've grown Bend to break, it feels All you take, body pays Ribs. Face. Ribs. Face. Ribs. Face. One pound One pound of flesh

Korihor 06:06
Oh ye that are bound down under a foolish and a vain hope Why do ye yoke yourselves with such foolish things? Is this life precious, or something to give? Or something to lose? Oh these lost children

Foremast 05:08
Weathered after years at sea It used to be so shiny The hull full of ample promise The rudder so steadfast Destination course charted Never leave the boat if the foremast looks intact Crew staring blindly Empty horizon They long for shore Destined for the depths below

Burrowed 06:33
Death in me, it crawls It eats through me right on down It waits for me, burrowed Be here with me Look into my eyes when you speak to me Touch me, consume me No contrivance can get us through the darkness Be here with me Death in me, it's mine All mine Takes me right on down It waits for me Alone
