lyrics

Verse:

Through clenched teeth, came the sounds
In a rhythm no one found
Layered voice, nulls the taste
Leaves echoes in its wake

Bitter breathe, sickly sweet
Flying spit then stains my cheek
Calling out won't stop you now
But I don't want it to show

Chorus:

Are you worries its getting ugly?
It's just a crown anyway
Lets make sure all duties are paid
And let the fool have his day

Verse:

Standing still, flat and grey
Hidden friends wont make me pay
In a row for all to see
And the blooms all went to seed.

Shedding leaves, a wilting heat
And the stems they mask my feet
High winds cleared them away
And that's something to admire

Chorus:

Are you worries its getting ugly?
It's just a crown anyway
Lets make sure all duties are paid
And let the fool have his day

Verse:

Through clenched teeth, came the sounds
In a rythym no one found
Layered voice, nulls the taste
Leaves echoes in its wake

Bitter breathe, sickly sweet
Flying spit then stains my cheek
Calling out won't stop you now
But I don't want it to show

Good stoner / cosmic rock from the UK. They all seem like a bunch of good lads, too. Here's my full review - http://www.7thlevelmusic.com/?p=9623 Nik Havert

This is colossal. I’ve been enjoying these guys for years but this album is next level. They seemed to have found their stride & it’s a biggin’. I feel that they’re heading into the Groove/Rock Genre of Clutch but still carry that epic, larger-than-life sound you’d expect from Zeppelin or later era Soundgarden. Their sound is tighter than a fish’s ass (and that’s water tight) & whatever these guys are doing; I’m loving it. And…the vocals are so, so, so good! I’m excited for their next outing. Harry Harrison

The surprisingly comical new video from roaring metal group Red Fang is a tip of the hat to the original “Predator.” Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 12, 2016
