lyrics
KNIFE ON THE PLATTER
///
Lies an actress after the stage.
Full of contempt. Contemplative.
Exhausted and betrayed. She is always rehearsing.
‘If you reveal no secrets’ she said
‘I have no use for you.
History will laugh at your
Lazy hip smug fatalism.’
She had a knife on the platter. Knife knife knife knife.
Knife on the platter. She said tonight the draw doesn’t matter.
Mind over matter. Knife knife knife knife.
She reveals the truth(s) in cliche.
Hits her mark by the candelabra.
Believe in projection. Like a mask you wear it.
Like a sentence pressed to the page
she’s unwilling to compromise.
Time dances on the stage.
Breathing new history.
‘If you neglect the secret’ she says
‘I have no use for you.
Mystery will laugh at your
Lazy hip smug fatalism.’
Believe in projection. Like a mask you wear it.
Believe in suspension. Don’t you make it not happen.

Opener absolutely rips. Falls into the ranks of tracks like “Dance” by ESG, “Eisbaer” by Grauzone, “Damaged Goods” by Gang of Four or like the album description says Kleenex. This is some really good stuff. Favorite song is the opener but dedicate “Blue” to my friend Blue who lost her life at 22, she would have loved this album. TheBloodofChrist
Across their second full-length, the London post-punks offer up thrumming motoriks, industrial tones, and sullen sing-a-longs in abundance. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 17, 2024
The Minneapolis band add a horn section, a running surrealist allegory about walls, and an occasional nod to the elegiac to their electroshocked post-punk. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 4, 2024
Layering guitars and saxes over synths and drum machines, this Oakland duo's darkwave is as melodically potent as it is texturally rich. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 1, 2024
