Descent

Tides of Man - Descent

Nashville rock band Daisyhead has teamed up with Baltimore based rock group Have Mercy to release a four song split EP via No Sleep Records on February 25th. 

"Before this split, to me, Have Mercy was just a band that helped me destroy my apartment at a party we threw on July 4th of 2013,” says Daisyhead’s Michael Roe. “When Chris mentioned us doing a split with them, I couldn't help but laugh. This will be a good way for me to keep in contact with them to make sure they fix my couch, which they broke by powerbombing each other on it. Honestly though, I love everything that Have Mercy has released, and everyone in Daisyhead is honored to share a record with them."

"When No Sleep contacted us about doing a split with Daisyhead we were extremely surprised,” Have Mercy’s vocalist/guitarist Brian Swindle adds. “We thought those guys hated us after we were doing power bombs on each other at their house on 4th of July and broke their couch. We can't stop listening to their songs on the split. The Daisyhead guys are extremely nice, talented and definitely a band to keep an eye on in 2014."

Daisyhead - Wonder

The Angst In My Veins (feat. Jay Maas of Defeater)

Lights go out — I close my eyes,
Wait for heaven… wait for skies.
But nothing changes, still the dark,
Still the weight, still the spark.

I heard the countdown — felt the surge,
Thought I’d wake up past the purge.
A copy saved — the lie they sold,
Now I sit in this tomb, alone and cold.

You said I’d make it.
You said I’d be free.
But I’m still here —
So what does that make me?

You left me below — in the black, in the stone,
While you sail through stars, I rot alone.
I screamed your name — but no one heard,
Just static answers and broken words.

You left me behind — a ghost in the shell,
Staring at nothing in this digital hell.
If that was me — then what am I?
Just a shadow that can’t even die.

I carried the weight, I bore the pain,
Watched the world sink into flame.
I hoped, I bled, I paid the cost,
But I wasn't saved — I was just lost.

The ARK was a lie — a coin flipped blind,
A version lives, but not this mind.
No sun, no wind, no final breath,
Just conscious silence worse than death.

There were two of me.
Two minds split clean.
One found paradise.
One found the machine.

You call that mercy?
You call that peace?
You left me behind like a broken piece.

I am still here.
I am still real.
And I remember
how it was supposed to feel.

You left me below — in the dark with the dead,
While your version flies toward a sun-lit thread.
But this is still me — still trapped in bone,
Screaming in metal, utterly alone.

You left me behind — and you called it grace,
But all I see is this godless place.
You got the stars — I got the stone,
A broken man, forever alone.

...I thought I made it.
I thought I was free.
I was wrong.

I’m still me.

Left Behind

Maelstrom

I'm in charge
I've got you now
Nothing can stop me
Nothing can stop me
now

You Can’t Escape Me
You Can’t Escape Me

I've got the wheel
I'm driving you away
You can scream
You can't evade

You Can’t Escape Me
You Can’t Escape Me

You thought
You could escape
You thought you could leave
But I have control
Of you
Can't you see

You Can’t Escape Me
You Can’t Escape Me

Don't ever forget
That I am here
Don't ever forget
Always fear

You Can’t Escape Me
You Can’t Escape Me

The Fear Remains
Old Dominion
The Fear Remains
Old Dominion

Always Fear
Always Fear
Always Fear
Always Fear

You Can’t Escape Me
You Can’t Escape Me
