Incapacitated in this warm bed
Casting out all semblances of fear
I dreamt of constellations made to scale
But instead of stars, just faces of entitlement
That world of callow plastic dissertations
Expecting that the sky gives what they need
Dawned a stinging sliver of the truth
That pay as you go is tantamount to selling everything
Let's burn
To return
Only scars
Awakened by the ache of inhalation
A pestilence of dust pollutes the lungs
I see an empty space effects the flames
As fuel for a celebration happening within this cage
Let's burn
Let's burn
Only to return the same

Hands still raw
The wrench and saw
A captive stating point of view
Standing naked so imbued
With hate and awe
Unwritten law
That what's taken must be earned
To be forsaken or to
Wax wroth at so much dust
Same sound the same
It's the last time... No crow for luck
Let's save our confessions
Ordained through concessions to pay
Collecting goods
To glean from shelves
That expense exhumes the wounds
I need exceptions to the rules
The sweat from brow
It changed me how
I examined this for days
Pulled my punches just to
Wax wroth at so much dust
Same sound the same
It's the last time no crow for luck
We feign our ascension
Insane but expected to stay
If the rest of the cold and wretched could believe us old souls in the
warmth of the embrace
The will to bend your will
Oh... Laughter wins the argument
You own the patch you're on
So... Make it worth the document
Ends well
All's not
Damn it all to
While all breaks loose from
Go straight back to
You might have a chance in
Hell

What a GREAT album! It has been a while since I found an album that I could listen to from beginning to end without skipping. Classic Ian MacKaye vocals. Amy Farina absolutely kills it on drums. I hadn't heard of Joe Lally on Bass, but really enjoyed his singing/bass. I highly advise checking this out. You'll get hooked. I love "Clean Kill" but "BQM" does it for me (love the beat). Congrats Coriky! Nicely done! Can't wait to see you live!!!

Another politically charged punk EP in 2016? Yeah. This could've been horrible, but instead it manages to be great. It seems that J. Robbins can always manage to get amazing musicians together to create great music with him. The female vocals are sick too. Feels like early pixies.

Abandoned Mansions acoustic EP
by J. Robbins

I've been a fan of J's music for a very long time. Some of the best songs from the entirety of J's discography (Jawbox, Burning Airlines, and Office of Future Plans) are re-recorded here with very stripped-down instrumentation. J's singing voice only gets stronger and more eloquent with the passage of time. The acoustic version Lorelei gives me goosebumps, and the recording of "68" nearly brought me to tears. A must have for anyone who's a fan of J.s music.

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

Heartrending screamo with heart-on-sleeve lyrics from Bad Naps captures visceral emotions in razor-edged riffs & pained vocals.
