COMMON FEAR
To all the bitter slant ripe
Backs sowed to the sofa
Marbled eyes
Cutting corners with a dull knife
Pulling rooms down one by one
And letting all animals loose
To all the bellicose bigots and jingoes
Flagging back and forth
Back and forth
Parading behind the elephant
With their holiday grin
It’s not the rope that hangs the man
It’s the man that hangs the rope
To all the unyielding
Just let go
Just let go
Give away
Give away
It’s not the same
It’s not the same
To all the heavy-hearted
Corroded by the weight of things
Watching the days thru the hourglass
Gnawing away
Gnawing away
Gnawing away
On the gospel of trust
To all the future gens
Don’t let bygones be bygones
Forget not what’s easily forgotten
Tilt the structure
Tilt the structure
Tilt the structure
It’s gonna be alright
It’s gonna be alright
It’s gonna be alright
Everything is fine
Everything is fine

WONDERHUNT
Chasing goals with cellophane
Strings through your neck
Breaking bills from day to day
From market to man
Repent and
Repent and
Shut the fold
Let it in
Haul it in
Cellophane
Blackened tongue
Wooden knee
Blackened lung
Push back and bend it
Chasing ghosts
Confident
Floating back
Gutter bed
Blackened eyes
Push back
Push back
And creep in
Confident
Confident
Shut the fold
Let it in
Confident
Confident
Shut the fold
Let it in
No one said nothing to all the decay
burning your bridges may just lead the may
Medic! Medic! Medic! Medic!
Shut the fold
Let it in
No one said nothing to all the decay
burning your bridges may just lead the may
Medic! Medic! Medic! Medic!
Shut the fold
Let it in
Chasing
Playing
Broken wealth
Precious me
The need

PROTO SKIN
Feeding the passengers with a garbage link
I’ll be here all year
Tongues licking backs for a better tomorrow
Mouldy trust makes for season cuts
Just Selling
Selling
I’ll be here all year
Bruises come easily but dents makes it all worthwhile
Proto Skin
Exoskeleton at your own benefit
Hearts and lungs sold by the dozen
Proto Skin
Just selling
Selling
I’ll be here all year
Painting the way
You Paid it / You Paid it
Waves make you stay
You weighed it / You weighed it
Slip through the back leave no trace on the mat
You made it / You made it
Lead the way with a broken arrow in your chest
Maybe someday you’ll find the head stowed away
Ten thousand miles between the backs in the sand
Just a thought for the comments
Ten thousand miles between what’s makes you stand up again
I’ll be here all year
Just selling
Selling
I’ll be just right here
Proto Skin Proto Skin
Painting the way
You Paid it / You Paid it
Waves make you stay
You weighed it / You weighed it
Slip through the back leave no trace on the mat
I’ll be here all year
I’ll be here all year
Everyday
All-day

NEW STANDARDS
Does this come off
Wash n’ grind
Rup it hard
With peroxide and brine
I did the dirty deed
All thoughts unkind
Eternal shitstains of a spotless mind
Take out the trash
Clean up this mess
With a clear vision
I see so much less
Get out for once
Take off the shoes
Step into the filth
No matter who's
Tear off the bandaid
Shave off the hair
Scrub off the dirt
Till the skin is red
More…
Till the skin is raw
Till the skin falls off
Don’t think about it
I just thought about it
Chase it in
Melt the grin
No rest / Chase it in
No rest / No rest / Melt the grin
Straight ahead
This is the wrong way
you have been misled
Don’t think about it
I just thought about it

BLOSSOM CUTS
Work the hosted
Future relief
Give them the speech
Future beliefs
Blend in
Strife the blameless from Early age
Make way
Distant space for the vast
No matter the transit
Brace yourself
Visionless
Singing through all of the faded
Hunt the flesh
Visionless
Decent now
The vision for the voiceless
You’ve made it just wait
Combed through silence
Sundown the spread
See the neon-palm
flash them all
Let your squalling free
Edit your feelings
precious degree

Evolution tipped over by an elbow in The eye
You say you can’t or you won't?
I say you can, but you won't

PEACH LUNG
Your face is a bit too long
My fault / Your fault
Your face is a bit too long
My fault / Your fault
I’ve been sinking on your face
My cap falls off on your bend razor
I can’t love my favorite all saint
You’ve been down and I’ve been
All by myself
Your face is a bit too long
My fault / Your fault
I’ve been running / You’ve been running

The Alarmist
Shaping with cold hands
The perfect relay
Daunted by mirrors of faith
Chrome bash your well being
Catered thread
Forget it
Forget it
It’s late
No need for cashing out
Call someone / Call someone
Shapeshift through content
Just wait
Chasing the perfect
the perfect distress
Call someone / Call someone
Just say it It’s okay
Spread the word
It’s okay
Hanging the thin thread
Of moral decay
Daunted by mirrors of faith
Chrome bash your well being
Catered thread
Wait / Wait
Say / Say it you're late
Bleach the sun thru faded
Just say it / Just say it
Where’s the moral when you need it

HIRAKI Aarhus, Denmark
As a part of Denmark’s flourishing underground scene for dark and heavy music, the HIRAKI trio deploys an aggressive style of progressive synthpunk from the edge of the abyss. The band presents this sonic assault to accompany the inevitable fact that our world is sick, and we all take part in maintaining the fucked up systemic structures. ... more
