Vivid imagery spreads across the ceiling,
with a silver screen gun pointed at my head.
wrapped in a pit where all wars are incomplete
and buried in distractions
I'll never find a way to make a distinction,
or a balance that keeps me here on this plane of existence,
and maybe that's for the best
The morning is a mirage
to ease an evening without a plan,
where all has stalled within my hands
After hours drinking and silence thicker than my will
it hasn't dawned on me for days
I'll never find a way to make a connection,
when the balance is favoured elsewhere on this plane of existence,
and maybe that's for the best
You can't rehearse your impact
like a character that you've seen
but still your tower is collapsing
under the weight of everything you think you have to be...
And in your makeshift hospital bed, every night,
All this repeats...
I've finally got Black Line on physical copy and this record actually blew my mind. There's so much beauty to this album but also its so crushingly heavy and extreme in an audio sense, Respire don't hold back they just let everything go and beyond, amazing!! Darknight
Kansas City trio Flooding draw out the more mystical qualities of slowcore and noise rock for a heavy sound that's less stony than doom. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 26, 2023
Fans of Polvo, take note! The excellent Kansas City band Abandoncy has the same fondness for corkscrewing riffs & melodies. It’s great! Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 28, 2022
