as he walks down on his road
this man feels old
his heart erodes

all the things that that girl said 
are better left
far behind him on his road

well his light was burnin low
reaping what he sowed 
loves a heavy load

but he knew he’d make it through
his mind was staying true  
his reason he’d stick to

now this man is on his own
happier alone
travelin on his road

His Road

who cares

First of new things to come. 
Enjoy,

You can name them if you like,
Never thought I'd find,
Stars weaken as I climb,
Hide me in plain sight,

Bitch I'm going crazy when the night come, 
Hang me if you need it when they catch up,
You let seasons change with your makeup,
I'm not very sorry when my face gone,

No one by my side, 
Just along for the ride,
Till the ash come alive,
Till I bleed through disguise,
I'm not going back inside,

You can name them if you like,

I'm more than being shy,
Never thought I'd find,
I once believed in life,
I can't imagine why,

Bitch I'm going crazy when the night come, 
Hang me if you need it when they catch up,
You let seasons change with your makeup,
I'm not very sorry when my face gone,

Rituals Of Mine - BURST (Skylar Spence Remix)

From Deeper's Sophomore LP "Auto-Pain" out March 27th on Fire Talk.

What do you do when pain blots out joy? How do you learn to take care of yourself? What happens when the things you think are helping end up doing the most harm? 'Auto-Pain' is the Sophomore album from Deeper, a record that finds the band embracing open space, using synths to create shadows where bricks of guitars once would’ve blocked out the sun. The group — singer and guitarist Nic Gohl, bassist Drew McBride, and drummer Shiraz Bhatti — were all graduates of Chicago’s rich DIY scene who came together around their love of Wire, Devo, Gang of Four, and Television. While the new record is still within the Great Lakes post-punk tradition of their debut, the album isn’t as insular as its predecessor; it’s less interested in pile-driving and more willing to dwell in liminal spaces. Guitars enter the picture precisely, locked bass grooves propel things forward. Drummer Shiraz Bhatti, who is half-Pakistani and half-Native American, embraced the drumming patterns he’d heard growing up at pow-wows, channeling the anxieties of his heritage into his playing and keeping the group grounded when they switch into all-out percussive attack. The result is an album both more nuanced and catchy.Auto-Pain represents the constant wave of depression felt by many in everyday life. Stemmed from Aldous Huxley’s ‘Brave New World’, Auto-Pain is a concept meant to be an inverse to soma, a pill in the book which makes everything numb. The idea of auto-pain is to epitomize the desire to return to a connection with thoughts and clarity, which comes at the expense of feeling everything simultaneously. The album artwork features the now-demolished Prentice Women’s Hospital in Chicago capturing the band’s rounded-off brutalism, and the album title appears in Urdu, a nod to drummer Shiraz Bhatti’s Pakistani heritage. The record was recorded and mixed by Chicago scene luminary Dave Vetraino (Lala Lala, Dehd) and mastered at Chicago Mastering by Greg Obis (Ne-Hi, Melkbelly).

Deeper - This Heat

LYRICS:
Back and forth

Stop there
You're making me nervous
I got the chance but I don't got the time
Right when
I came to the surface
You knock me down and I'm lost in my mind
I went up to the limit
Down to forget it
I really didn't mean to over complicate it
Tried to seem hard to get
Now I'm feeling scared to death
And now I need to catch my breath

Now this could be true
True something
Whatever you do
I cant admit that it's nothing oo
I gotta let you know now
You gotta let me know how
You gotta show me how

Now this could be true
True something
Whatever you do
I can't admit that it's nothing oo
I gotta let you know now
You gotta let me know how
You gotta show me how you move back and forth

The Ballroom Thieves - Homme Run

Crunch

Crunch (feat. MELVV)

Oak beams and cobbled streets were weathered
We to, an imagined past, are tethered
Those streets have not been there forever
Nostalgia can't keep them together

Decay
Makes way
As we pave
Our way to a future of concrete anonymity

High rise and underpasses weathered
Cladding can't hold it all together
Estate town down and multi-storey blown up
Condemned as a 1960s hiccup

Decay
Makes way
As we build
A complex of unaffordable luxury apartments

History to memory is cuckhold
Progress and decay are but muddled
Nostalgia's got us in a chokehold
All agreed we need to be bold
But if it's not in our backyard then where's it going to be?

Lyrics:
You stopped calling to check in.
And I stopped telling you where have been
I stopped trying to prove you wrong
We’ve fought this way too long.

I drove up the interstate
With a feelin that I couldn’t shake/chase
After everything you said
We put the past to bed.

Bad happens
No ones to blame but our
Bad habits
Put us to shame
We held out
The best that we had
Oh but, bad happens
And that don’t mean were half bad.

It was easy to forgive
But that was back when we were still just kids
Oh how I struggle to forget
So I just fill my chest.
With wine and cigarettes.

I know in time
I will get you
Off of my mind
I won’t have to
Live in this lie
I’ll find someone new.

A Voyeur Makes No Mark

Not Your Time

Don't put trust into yourself 
You'll always let yourself down 
Who are you waiting for? 
Your life is taking you for a ride 
In such a sad state, put trust in your own mind 
'Cause it's taking you for a ride 

Don't put trust in anyone 
They always let themselves down 
Who are you waiting for? 
Your life is taking you for a ride 
In such a sad state, put trust in your own mind 
'Cause it's taking you for a ride
 
Who are you waiting for? 
The sun burns a hole in the ocean 
And you're only there for the view 
Taking attendance and waiting for something now 
Who are you?

I wanna celebrate
In this endless eight
You and me could make the best thing in a while

While the city sleeps
Praying to concrete
That only this heart beats the best thing in a while

And you say her name
Patterns in the rain
Match what's in my brain, the best thing in a while

When I see your moon
I got secrets too
Only cause of you, the best thing in a while

Take the bullet train
I don't feel the rain
Want it to remain the best thing in a while

Am I still your moon
There was only you
For a week or two, the best thing in a while

Light a cigarette
I'm not over it
Running to forget the best thing in a while

Wonder if you knew
I got secrets too
Only cause of you, the best thing in a while

Best thing in a while
Best thing in a while
Best thing in a while
Best thing in a while

I don't even know where you are, I'll find you anyway
I don't even know what I want, I want you anyway

Lyrics:
Leaves are falling
Strange highways out in the cold
The world is turning
As your eyes take a fall

No need to hide the lunar light
No need to leave your best divine
Just keep the eye on the inner sign

When night is down without a star
No need to rush, no need to cry
Just use the force you have inside
Just need to push, things one more time (2x)

To kickstart this auspicious year the label returns with the ‘The White Collection’, the 8th release in its acclaimed ‘Co- lour Series’ and a globetrotting compilation featuring 14 tracks of leftfield electronic music drawn from 9 different countries, covering everything from cosmic disco to industrial sounding techno via Middle Eastern inspired house music and psychedelic electronic dub. 
Featuring label veterans such as NTEIBINT, recent signings like Cavego, Paresse and Antenna and several acts making their debut including Gent-based 4 piece band Omar Dahl, up & coming Australian producer The Oddness and Reykjavik’s Tonaru- nar, ‘The White Collection’ is a both a snapshot of an electronic music scene in constant flux and a label that refuses to rest on its laurels. 
Since launching in the year 2000, Gent based Eskimo Recordings has become one of the leading electronic music labels in the world releasing genre defining artist al- bums and compilations from Satin Jackets, Aeroplane, Lindstrøm, Prins Thomas, The Glimmers, Optimo, Psychemagik and many more. Since its launch in 2013 the ‘Colour Series’, now in its 8th edition, has continued to build upon the label’s reputation, not only for discovering and curating great music but for great design and continuing that tradition the cover for ‘The White Collection’ features a stunning photo, ‘Gravitation’, by Amsterdam-based German photographer Katrin Korfmann.

NOVAS

Try Not To Worry

While the track "Calm Down" was about panic attacks in the moment, "Champagne" is about panic attacks in the retrospective. Poor mental health can plague everyday life, and after a while it becomes fatiguing. When you avoid doing things in life for fear it will cause another attack, it becomes a disorder. Your whole life evolves around it, you're always on guard, and you're always taking into consideration how what you're about to do will affect you.

The first verse in "Champagne" talks about seeing random strangers out in the world and wondering what it would be like to trade lives with them. Freaky Friday style. The second verse touches on the same image. "I'm looking over shoulders and seeing everybody fine and how they don't mind" means exactly that. Everybody seems fine. But are they? Are they also dealing with internal demons and seeing me as a random stranger and thinking that I look fine? Is grass always greener on the other side?

In the chorus, "waking up with champagne" is a metaphor for all the blessing I have in my life. Even though I struggle with my own issues, I have to many things to be grateful for. Yet, this line is followed with "are you gonna be afraid every day?" If I have so much to be grateful for, why do I have to worry about struggling with my issues? Can't I just let it go, and enjoy my life? The rest of the chorus says "it comes in numbers. Would you have a life to trade for always?" This asks if it is so bad that I'd really want to permanently trade lives with someone? Again, is grass always greener on the other side?

"Champagne" asks a lot of questions. It's a reflective piece on a very after-the-fact perspective of mental health. Thanks for listening.
