A strange, somewhat grim vehicle of electropunk-inspired industrial pop nonsense. I've been told my lyrics verge on the slightly intense. With effortless underg
I'd love to sound more like :Wumpscut: or Katscan or someone like that but I'm afraid that's unlikely. I've spent too many years looking for proper industrial punk bands and the sort of hairy European misanthropes that float my boat, but come up empty, so I thought I'd do it myself. That said, I cringe listening to my own tunes - which unfortunately I've been known to do sometimes; possibly because they're all gloriously unhinged. I suppose Jandek and Suckdog are role models as well then. Does this break the 'evil Nihilistic bleakness' third wall a bit? I always wonder that about industrial and post-industrial groups. They all sound so sensible and dour. That said, I'd like to think my real life is somewhat grim, and I'm not just moaning on about Nazi zombies or cybernetic hookers or something. You get a lot of dental references in my stuff. Much as I try not to glorify it, that's probably because I've been known to chew sweet dripping fuck out of myself on occasion and would at least like to be allowed to complain about that decidedly unorthodox state of affairs occasionally. The attitude of Whitehouse, Brighter Death Now, Swans and Painslut filtered through the crappy techno pop bleepery of whatever modern toss I'm subconsciously influenced by, I suppose. Right, that's enough bands name-dropped. Just listen to it if you're curious.

Lyrics
Nothing Can Fix This We prayed in the waves for a better day Flung wet faith across the sands We prayed in the waves for a better day Netted shadows to our hands We prayed in the waves for a better day Flung wet faith across the sands We prayed in the waves for a better day But the wind knew the waves would not understand Swallow the salt of my sea-spray eyes Nothing can fix this Nothing can fix this Swallow the salt of my sea-spray eyes Swallow the salt of my sea-spray eyes Nothing can fix this Nothing can fix this Carried along in a creeping tide Without these tears my world will dry The blind arks beat down rotten coasts A black main ploughed for vulgar ghosts Distil this crucifixion and you’re left with the host Not that it matters anymore You can read our future in oyster shells They hold all the lies we won’t keep for ourselves Fractured in heaven and fixed up in hell We drifted away from the shore Swallow the salt of my sea-spray eyes Nothing can fix this Nothing can fix this Swallow the salt of my sea-spray eyes Swallow the salt of my sea-spray eyes Nothing can fix this Nothing can fix this Carried along in a creeping tide Without these tears my world will dry Orchids light the rocks up for the recently drowned Crushed bones sucking seaweed till the deep drags them down Let the mourners meet us here us And let them name themselves profound Then let them close that door We prayed in the waves for a better day Flung wet faith across the sands Netted shadows to our hands We prayed in the waves for a better day But the wind knew the waves would not understand Swallow the salt of my sea-spray eyes Nothing can fix this Nothing can fix this Swallow the salt of my sea-spray eyes Swallow the salt of my sea-spray eyes Nothing can fix this Nothing can fix this Carried along in a creeping tide Without these tears my world will dry
