There's a black and white face staring back at me
Above the bathroom sink, my long hair is thinning
I own a cafe called The Mausoleum
We only serve coffee black and single-origin goat’s blood
Surrounded by sheep skulls and espresso grounds
And baristas wearing painted frowns
I daydream of a family, a suburban life and a wife
But it's hard to get ahead looking undead
Fuck humanity
I haven't been to church since I torched one
I pray to Burzum not to God
A misanthropic world view and a Bathory tattoo
I've got the corpse paint blues
This year's vacation will take me to Norway
A backpacking trip to the eye of the storm
I’ll see the basement where they planned the fires
And grab a coffee at what used to be Helvete
Maybe I’ll meet a pagan metal queen
In a bullet belt and Venom tee
A Nordic girl with a desk job, a nice salary, normalcy
An unreasonable boss, an upside down cross in her cubicle
I spend my weekends in the forest
Reading Lords of Chaos by light of the moon
It's my Mercyful Fate I'll never find a date
I've got the corpse paint blues

Coming back to punk rock after spending a lot of time away listening to other things made this extremely hard hitting and fresh. McCaughan's poetic lyricsm in Sundowner shines through in this release. Somehow Metropole didn't hit me like most, but I can see how "You Are Here" was a precursor to one of my favorite records to come. Shaughn Martel
Pitch-perfect math rock from Kaneohe, Hawaii charges forward on raw, ragged emotion. A treat for fans of Polvo and Pardoner. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 27, 2018
Taking cues from Midwestern emo and early ’10 pop punk, this Leeds, UK outfit are full of heart— not to mention hooks. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 21, 2022

This might be the best melodic punk album from top to bottom... ever.
Recently discovered The Bombpops. They are a revelation.
There is not a bad track on this album. There is not even an average track. Every song rocks. I normally have two to four songs from most albums that make it to the list of "great songs that I could listen to endlessly". I can put every song on this album on that list. zenmasterj
