George B.B. This album is gold. Such a wild concept to run with but I'm blown away, fresh and clever. Favorite track: Uncurl & Swell.

Thomas a perfect and spooky autumn gem that still holds up all these years later Favorite track: Born In A Goldmine.
Angus Gaffney

Angus Gaffney Raw, jingle-jangly, click-clacky, and awesome. Creepy harmonies, cackling banjo strums, and caustic percussion combine for a very unique listening experience. One of- if not the best new albums I've heard in a long time. Favorite track: Born In A Goldmine.

Prowlin' 03:26
Down below there beats a bottom Proud I pulled and peel n' fought him Now he's sold in gravel savage No light, day bright, hopeful habit Now I know there won't be a light everywhere Ill thy golden sight unfold In my home he come and told Killin' on the wind side there unspoiled Then my soul sunk to the bottom Crown on gable, leaving autumn Pull ashore my heithen Ghetty Ode to someone, said he led me Prowlin' on the wind side, leavin' home No on goes, No one can go Setting sun and on head, oh hung high Hating, holding, oath they never told Then one night my plan was weak All my guards they doze asleep Ill I come in frozen heat Pale I pose on land defeat Then got hold him Came here leanin' Sell your bones on rollin' grate Head on go and kneel to widen Bleeding peeling pine can never grow Blowin' by in shivering light It's cold in boiling find away Cumbersome to get lent away From home..........

Born in a goldmine...... Old gleaming light Shone upon the ground Where fallen Stones will never keep... I won't go around to be tortured alive I'll stay here forever In late night's glow I revoke no Call me summon Peered into a fold Breaking backs Marked by coal (Born in a goldmine) Lung worn as foot Old as shame Marked by soot (Born in a goldmine) All of my weakness (I know) Call'd in a secret (Meadow) To get away Seem will not open (Na noooooo) You've got your chosen sickness Followed by hallowed witness In pits of dirt and thunder Engulfed by darkness Hunters track your path Don't trust the shadows you seek You've got your chosen sickness Followed by hallowed witness In pits of dirt and thunder Engulfed by darkness Hunters track your path Don't trust the shadows you seek Or the graves they keep They got headstones made of gold........

The seeds that I sow The plants that I grow Uncurl and swell in the valley below Where dust and sand Fill my clothes The sun it burns And the wind it blows... Oh I'm wounded see Cracks in the soil beneath my feet Take my breath from me Gasping lungs within my sleep Everyday my hands grow dry Cracked open by the candle light Blood on wax Wax on stone Stone becomes dust Then the dust becomes bone Oh I'm wounded see Cracks in the soil beneath my feet Take my breath from me Gasping lungs within my sleep Oh I mourn to see What my land has come to be Not a drop will fall Call on the sky my sins dissolve If you find yourself no longer free Unshackle your chains and follow me I don't wanna go..... To the fire below......

Soiled Robe 02:36
Lower bones Lower bones (In the hole) (In the hole) I know The bones Were stole My gold In a day I stole Had my way Filled my full In a day Dug my low Filthy now my soiled robe When you gonna give cleanliness A place in you soul When you gonna give back all The bones that you stole Er' I saw a burning straw Down in the thicket Everywhere along the way So dry my tongue won't lick it If I had a pale and rope Said then I'd dip it When the well is warm Wind is weanin' where we lie Eyes are aimin' in the sky Wind is weanin' where we lie Off to join the firefly My body breaths Applecores! Are thrown this way from all directions Please Balding badly I don't Have the Will to Bend apart with Crude utensils Cut from Wood and Mined in Quarries Owned by Savage money makers Lower bones in the hole Lower bones in the hole Lower bones in the hole Lower bones in the hole

Fight the fog You run high I'll reclaim what's stolen Seize fire Been down runnin' out to find All my stolen dreams that died All my Lying softly On the ground I saw which way I know why.... Barely hanging on For dear life I fell to my grave All my..... Lying softly Walkin' the eye Walkin' the eye Walkin' the eye Walkin' the eye Wakin' alone with a Moan why Dare to defy Dare to defy Walkin' the eye Walkin' the eye Bearin' a lie Dimmin' divide Callin' it right Callin' it mine Mockin' divine Mockin' me why Hold my Height Rope my ripe Nettle spine..... My future's bright and open..... Soon to come flame that brings upon the season One flame, on fall.....

Fortify 04:13
Throw fire on the water Cold night getting hotter Heal all with the same light One lies in a cold fright Though they may be kept alive All my heart is pulled aside Light of honor betray one hope, one way With the healing power forsaken Cold night on the water One mind in a wander Come be tame don't choose the lie On you throne you gaze with ice Light of honor betray one hope, one way With the healing power forsaken No there's nothing but the power to save him... I said leave this holy host Shallow sweet Craving hurt the most Walk oh friend so true And the sweet Melts right into you Oh why fortify, feeling cut down Oh why fortify, there crawling on the ground Oh why fortify, to the mean one that I found Oh why fortify, to the mean one.....

Oh slippery slide Lick my lips, they're dry Drip on down my sides Come to me at night Somebody better say my name Cause my house it don't feel the same With my nose up to the window pane Somebody better say my name Came from my brother's tongue Slipped out and slit my gums Cut tooth and shakey thumbs Seven years went by Curse upon the bloodline Slippery slide And he cried No need for that now Need to carry on Find a different one No need for that now Need to carry on Find a different one And I can't get enough I can't fight it Old slimeball sucked me in You get the dirty mutherfucker With his head crushed in (Oh my Lord, Oh my Lord) Oh it seems I'll have to do it again (Oh my Lord, Oh my Lord) Oh I said all men I never laid my head upon a stone so cold
