1. Awkward City
This town has a hold on me
Someone should burn it on down.
Young kids with social disease
Someone should set them all free.
We could discuss my disgust
But I’d rather burn it on down.
This town has a hold on us
Someone should set it on free.
Every street in this town has a story
Every story is so fucking boring.
This town has hold on me
Someone should burn it on down.
Awkward kids with social disease
Set them all free.
We could discuss my disgust
I’d rather burn it all down.
2. Bloomberg Plows
It'll take an army
to clear your streets
you've got in spades
million dollar sheets
Don't cramp the style
They'll head up the coast
Don't tax Don't smile
Sort the bodies, call in the hearse
Let's all hail the chief, let's all hail the thief, let's all hail the chief.
Diamond sashemi, Laced with sweat
Send the word call in the plows
Blame yourself
The Halls of Tammany
are paved in platinum
deliberate and dumb
Go tell it to a mountain
3. Old Mouths
Trapped in this chair
I knew that you'd say that
Trapped in this chair
I knew you'd come clean
Knew I had it coming
I lent you an ear
You've told me too much
Feels like next year
I heard it all before
Heard you loud and clear
the hands are in the gloves
another joke my dear
Old mouths
They never come clean
4. Age of Backwards
Instrumental

5. The Toucher
The placement always matters
Its always meant to hurt.
The hammer's always subtle.
Swung to benefit the worst.
Where you lay head at night
All things that you hold dear
The hands have all been held
The heads have been cleared
I am the black dust lining of your lung,
I am the corner of your page
Kingmaker and crown
Not a turner, not the sage
6. Shakin Hands With The Sheriff
I left the academy for a position in radar
Crumbs in my seat
I eat in my car
Tennis elbow, I never owned a racket
Its just my job
I love my job
A smooth transition from the desert
These slacks don't breathe
I uphold the sleeze
I'm workin these guns
I've got a lot on my mind
Next year we go electronic
My paper's stacking up
Next year we go electronic
My paper's stacking up
7. Pony Destroyer
Welcome equestrian, destroyer of men. Hooves like
calloused hands, conquer the promised lands. Back in the saddle again,
you won’t come around. Out of the races, and onto the track. I’ll
decide who lives and who dies. Out of the races and onto the track.
Back in the saddle, again
You won't come around
8. Sun and Gin
Instrumental

New Tongues Columbia, Missouri
Drenched in reverb, propulsive rhythms, and a 90's
midwestern aesthetic. New 4 song EP "DARK / LIGHT" available in digital, vinyl, and cassette format coming June 2107
New Tongues recommends:
piquant guitar melodies; sharp, protean percussion; alternately plangent and empyreal vocals; all awash in synth and reverb

One of my favorite albums of 2015, Lardo's "GUNMETAL EYES" is also one of the best recordings I've found on Bandcamp. Great post-hardcore is hard to find (in my opinion), and GUNMETAL EYES is one of the greatest examples of the genre in the 2010s. Mandatory listening.

This is pretty much a perfect noise rock record, worshiping at the Church of Jesus Lizard, but with its own flavor of punishment, more calculated and bludgeoning than Yow and co. The riffs are all killer, no filler. I'm sad that this is the last hurrah for this band, but at least it ended on this very high note. Buildings is dead, long live Buildings!

In Black And Gold
by Hey Colossus
This snarling 6-piece from London mixes heavy, guitar-driven doom with a punk edge and psych workouts.

Blinded By Oblivion
by Axis: Sova
Axis:Sova mess with the hard rock playbook, creating playful, catchy songs that challenge as much as they rip.
