A crack in our hearts, a void you once filled
And now you’re gone from the world that together we built
Bitter does not do justice to the feelings we reap
But now we hold, all we hold, is the burden of all your deceit
Nothing worth having comes easy
We thought you lived by the words that you preached
Brotherhood is more than blood, rather concrete
You’re departure is unsettling, so different than we were imaging
The dreams we set out to achieve, but yet you say you don’t believe
We’re going anywhere, quicksand at our feet
We’ve pulled it together and will never accept defeat
The strong have remained, we have moved on
Iranian metal band Confess channel their struggles with political oppression and exile into cathartic, groovy thrash. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 2, 2022
Sharptooth fight bigotry with melodic hardcore, their breakdowns an ideal vehicle for singer Lauren Kashan's incendiary insights. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 15, 2020
Been listening to this since 2013. Eventually tried to track down a CD but now I'm starting to go digital. So, has 7 years of listening to this EP dulled the experience? Not even slightly. Amazing work. From Nathan's ghost beats on the snare, polyrhythmic measures and insane kick pedal work, Eric's unique tone on vocals and both Aaron and Josh's melodies and interesting structures. Just hope they get the chance to tour England soon. JAY DYER
