LYRICS:
Give me something that never ends
Give me something that never ends
You would be a fool to deny
The longing that I see in your eyes
You're unsure what it's for
But you know it's for something that's real
I would be a fool if I
Was too proud to tell you that I feel it too
Safe to assume
This longing isn't new
You're always wondering why
Wondering why your heart has yet to find it's rest
Maybe your heart was made for heaven
And will not settle for less
Even if you've figured it out 
And you've got what you want
Or you're chasing it now
It's a finite cure, don't we always want more
Everything here will let you down
You're always wondering why
Wondering why your heart has yet to find it's rest
Maybe your heart was made for heaven
And will not settle for less
Chasing the high that has no fall
And all of our running turned to a crawl
I feel a break that the world won't mend
Give me something that never ends
Give me something that never ends

Diet Cig - Scene Sick

Italian trio Casa del Mirto have been around for the past ten years, only recently evolving from a dancey project into something a whole lot more chilled out and atmospheric. Making synthy sounds to sit and think to, their new music is intimate and undeniably beautiful. Taken from their upcoming album Still (due for release on January 26th via @GhostRecords) i-D are pleased to present the premiere of Reflex. Opening with a repetitive stabbing synth reminiscent of a recent Les Sins track, Reflex layers minimalist percussion over sweet piano chords before soaring strings carry the track to another level. Ascoltare bene!

LYRICS: 

Lay down your slow
Come settle down, settle down
Let loose your glow
Come settle down, settle down

And I feel life for the very first time
Love in my arms and the sun in my eyes
I feel safe in the 5am light
You carry my fears as the heavens set fire

Jump into the heat
Spinning on our feet
In a technicolour beat
You and me
Caught up in a dream
In a technicolour beat

Warm unalone
Come settle down, settle down
Swing me your bones
Come settle down, settle down

And I feel life for the very first time
Love in my arms and the sun in my eyes
I feel safe in the 5am light
You carry my fears as the heavens set fire

Jump into the heat
Spinning on our feet
In a technicolour beat
You and me
Caught up in a dream
In a technicolour beat

Give me one drop
I can feel you
Make me lose control
We be walking
On the water 
We're moving in a technicolour beat
Moving in a technicolour beat

Jump into the heat
(Falling off the ceiling)
Spinning on our feet
We're moving in a technicolour beat
You and me
(Found another feeling)
Caught up in a dream
We're moving in a technicolour beat

HVOB - Azrael

POISON IDEA, one of the most infamous and instantly recognizable names in the legacy of hardcore punk, is preparing to release their first new album since 2006’s Latest Will and Testament. Southern Lord Recordings, responsible for reissuing the band’s back-catalog in recent years, are the ones irresponsible enough to bring to you Confuse & Conquer, now confirmed for US release on April 7th, 2015.

Soaking up respect from generations of hardcore punks and dishing none out, the dastardly denizens of mid-paced punk shred are in trademark form on Confuse & Conquer. With longstanding members Jerry A (vocals), Eric “The Vegetable” Olsen (guitar) and Chris “Spider” Carey (bass) alloyed by the fresh faces of Nathan “Skinny” Richardson (drums) and Brandon Bentley (guitar), POISON IDEA’s brand new full-length proves itself both identifiable and rewarding to listeners who have encountered them at any point from their 1980 birth onwards. Inventive beyond its steadfast roots, yet altogether as blunt as a stagediver’s knee hurtling towards your face, Confuse & Conquer sees the band wasting not a single second on non-music activities, riding high on this wave of creativity. Their forceful hardcore pummel is underwritten with dark humor, rage, disdain, and moments of real melancholy well beyond the usual remit of the genre, but it’s to be expected of Portland’s nihilistic champions, proudly unaligned with any other sound out there. They were there at the beginning and they’ll be there at the end, and in the meantime they have a lot more punk rock left to produce.

Confuse & Conquer was recorded in their hometown by Joel Grind (Toxic Holocaust) and mastered by Brad Boatright (From Ashes Rise) at Audiosiege over the closing few months of 2014, and will see release via Southern Lord on the 7th of April on CD, LP and digital formats. Additionally, expanded reissues of seminal POISON IDEA titles War All The Time, Feel The Darkness and more are also in the works for the coming years.

Formed in 1980, POISON IDEA became a household name in the hardcore/punk scenes early in their career, and are known as one of the most notoriously in-your-face acts in the American musical underworld, with an enraged, high-energy live set even more rambunctious than the massive roster of singles, EPs, full-length studio and live releases and more, across a realm of labels including Pusmort, Alchemy, American Leather, Bitzcore, Tim/Kerr, Taang!, Farewell, TKO, Southern Lord, Candlelight, and their own Fatal Erection. They’ve been an incredibly influential act to major performers including Nirvana, Pantera, Napalm Death, Machine Head, Eyehategod, Emperor, Turbonegro and an endless list of others.
