about

Psyched to announce the first single off Ostranenie, our new EP!Complete with a brass ensemble (comes back in the back half with a vengeance) and polyrhythmic cacaphony, Rubber Unfamiliar is a loveletter to the paranoiac whiplash art-rock of the aughts, and the grandoise symphonic prog of the 70's, both in equal measure.

lyrics

He looked me dead in the eye
And told me no more suns
Away my clutched mouth sighs
Let out a howl, I
Who is that I see mirror
Boring and drained as one could be
While still beating

Who do I contact
I want years back
Which way can I yell
Why is rubber unfamiliar

My bones are sharpened knives
How my joints used to help me
Tendons dissolved in lye
Cry out for help, I
Who is that I see mirror
Weathered and grained as one could be
While still beating

Who do I contact
I want years back
Which way can I yell
Why is rubber unfamiliar

It's no one's fault but father time
As merciless as he is kind
With words I gained I leave this room
With a half heart grin I accept my tomb

I'm mummified by my own retention
Petrified by my non-will to sit still
I'm mummified by my own retention
Petrified by my non-will to sit still

Still
Still
Still
Still

Why is rubber so unfamiliar?
