I spent the holidays alone
Darkest days I've ever known
My only friend the city's glow
Reflecting back from miles below
I am the wreckage of my disease
It's not about me
Or about she
Truth's not the goal
It's about them
Always has been
Relinquish control
The sink is piled high with dirty dishes
Twisted logic sealed my fate
A casualty of too much weight
Four-hundred dollar lawyer rates
Copy, staple, collate
I am the peasant and the royalty
It's not about me
Or about she
Truth's not the goal
It's about them
Always has been
Relinquish control
The sink is piled high with dirty dishes
The chainsaw wielding maniac
Dripped warm blood onto my back
Took a vow never to attack
Smothered to death and fade to black
I am the slayer in this slasher flick
It's not about me
Or about she
Truth's not the goal
It's about them
Always has been
Relinquish control
The sink is piled high with dirty dishes
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
