Demons

Demons live inside
A comfortable place to tell their lies
They don’t deserve your ear
Yet they seem to speak so clear
I found out on that day
Demons will find their way
They found me all alone
They speak to this day
Demons want your trust
Try to tear you down with no remorse
They might seem like a crutch
Til that weight is dropped
I found out on that day
Demons will find their way
They found me all alone
They speak to this day

Dark Waves

Dark Waves are closing in
Six souls must push ahead
We will not, not be lost
Small vessel breaking apart
Backs broken racing hearts
As we feel the blood flow
We won’t make it to shore
White Lion is at the helm
OG holds firm and grounds
As the rain, batters down
Wind hurls us side to side
We stare death in the eye
Just an inch, to disappear
We won’t make it to shore

The Cog
04:17
|
|||
|
Rage, a parasitic mob
Blind, believing what they want
Fools, violent and dumb
Clinging to their guns
Ocean, a sea of only white
Puppets, the cog in their own blight
Claims in the name of God
The shame they have brought
Take what you want, it’s all over when you’re gone

Awaken
06:56
|
|||
|
To fall asleep here
Is to wake up there
Free from mortal flesh
My head sinks below
And the world dissolves
Self sufficient joy
I don't want to go
Don’t want to leave my home
But this world isn’t true
Because it still has you
Meet at the same spots
Midnight Mardi Gras
Limitations fold
Time will slip away
Clocks will melt and fade
Suspended in this place

Hollow Dreams
06:21
|
|||
|
Melting shadows follow you around
Deny their pain, in death you will drown
Burning forests, hear destructions howl
You can’t live in peace, you don’t know how
Voices scream and shout
Into the void, cast out
Voices scream and shout
Echoes of the past are crying out
Chaos reigns, who will survive?
Be still, pretend you’re not alive
But the statue shakes with blinding rage
Tear down the throne, rattle the cage

Death Grip
03:38
|
|||
|
Without death you can’t survive
Back door deals right in plain sight
Strangers pass, you come alive
Stack your profit miles high
Just how much can you lose all at once
When you know, you'll know
What we learned we forgot
The water washed it away
I throw myself to the waves
Evil cloaked in rituals
Families broken at their core
Scared and weak they come to you
At the mercy of your rule
|

The Path
03:45
|
|||
|
There’s a place where they can’t find you
Safe, warm, far away from all this
Breathe in, feel no more fear of them
I’ll show you the door if you can run
When it comes to pass
When they lose control
I see a path
When they come for you
And they want your soul
You’ll tell them no
You’ll tell them no
Reap what they sow
There’s a place where they won’t find you
Safe, Warm, Far away from all pain
Breathe in, feel no more fear of them
I’ll show you the way out of here

Mad King
04:56
|
|||
|
Feeling lost, another way to feel alone
I cannot find a way to gain control
They will not find a prize at the end
Once you’re free you’ll never look back again
Annihilate reality, the truth will bend
Darkness has never seemed so close
If greed reigns this sinking ship will never float
Have you seen the people flocking
To the one they call the New King?

BLACK LUNG Baltimore, Maryland
In the deadly cold winter of 2014, Black Lung emerged from the underbelly of Baltimore with unprecedented amounts of volume. A union of Adam Bufano, Elias Mays Schutzman (of The Flying Eyes) and multi-instrumentalist Dave Cavalier, the trio toes the line between sonic pain and melodic bliss. ... more

The flac version of this sounds great in my truck... not a crunch, clip or boom to be heard. That, in itself, gets this major points. This is a lovely combination of early Floyd, U2 and a few San Francisco bands from the '60s with a heavy dose of Helmet tossed in. It's definitely best of breed when it comes to modern psych stuff. Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+...

Sustained by seismic psych riffs, proggy shifts, and vivid sci-fi storytelling, these Milwaukee cosmonauts command respect.

Strange, Strange Times

Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching.

DEAD MEADOW - Voyager To Voyager

Recorded at Dave Grohl’s Studio 606, the heavy-psych pioneers' first album since the passing of bassist Steve Kille is an absolute beast.
