Let Us Be Reckless

Into the Dark

happy faces, stars and light
cupcake baking feels alright 
your like a savior
just a regular neighbor
all according to context
we just live on a complex

im a fake
and im a fraud  what i’ve done
is very wrong 
i cant take back
what i’ve said
i dont exist
its in my head
 at least i have my reasons 
its how its all perceived
ive lied for seasons 
and they all believed
and now i feel really bad
i kinda feel really sad
i cant just give it rest
  i ruined all my friends 
and they dont know it yet

im never taken seriously
when im gone they laugh at me
they think im clueless but i know
i know so much i fucking loathe
 i hate everything that this fucking world is
i hate everything that a fucking girl is
i hate my life, so i make it right
i hate my life, so i fucking lie   

so i lie
 all the time
it becomes second nature
will you be my savior
 do you see my danger
and like that im a stranger 
will you be my savior 
for my bad behaviour  
so i lie all the time
it becomes second nature
will you be my savior

Spider Vinegar

I can’t believe I never noticed the shit you did when I was gone
I found the broken bottles beneath the garbage
Outside the bathroom door
You said that you were finished with all that bullshit
To me in the hospital
I cleaned the puke off the bedroom rug I washed your hair I covered up
All of the lies
I Told all your friends that you cut ties with
I said you were fine

you almost died tonight in my arms
I can’t Believe I love a ghost 

And Now we’re back to square one

it’s been six whole damn months since we left off

You’re holding a white claw
And calling my phone now
But you already know I blocked you off

I’m moving on
Im off those drugs I used to cope with
I’m better off Now that we broke up 
I’ll sign the papers the lawyers wrote up

I’m callin it off!


No more lies
And no more hiding
No more pain and no more fights

I cannot be here when you die
I hope you know I really tried
But I became someone hate
I can’t afford to live this way
I’m always stressed
I can’t stop yelling
I’m so mad I want to break
I can’t become another demon 
this disease will make us pay
I’m calling it off so I don’t kill you first
I wont last another day

Fade Out

This song is about how even in some of our lowest points it is insanely hard to ask for help. We get so used to it, but getting help means change and that can seem far more terrifying.

Tranquilamente wavey with a special mix of dream pop, shoegaze and post-punk.

Let The Bad Times Roll (The Offspring) - Alternative Rock Cover

lyrics: 

Everybody always talking about me
I don’t know why I always get bullied
I never knew life was gonna be so mean
Please god I wish I was happy
I don’t think I’ll ever be happy
Anger issues why I’m always so snappy
I’m a loser, super scrawny and low t
Please god won’t someone help me

I’m a loser
I have no friends
And no life to live

I’m a loser
Please leave me alone
I wish I was dead

Contemplating thoughts of suicide
All I ever do is cry and cry
Feel so empty
Feel so mad inside
Lately I just wanna die

I’m a loser
I have no friends
And no life to live

I’m a loser
Please leave me alone
I wish I was dead

Loser

A year ago you left us...
I hope this makes you proud <3

Pulling The Trigger [Prod By IOF]

COLOUR VINYL: https://hth.lnk.to/flood

Following an exciting end to 2020, which saw the band sign to us here at Houndstooth, release a blistering single ‘Deadlock’ and named in the NME 100 for 2021, @scalpingmusic prepare their first full body of work, ‘FLOOD’ EP which is set for release June 18th.

SCALPING have quickly established themselves amongst the UK’s most sensational acts, drip-feeding explosive shots of techno, punk and hardcore into the world and igniting venues and festivals across UK and Europe with a precise, unrelenting energy. The ‘FLOOD’ EP is a major milestone for the band and is the first proper holistic realisation of SCALPING’s stylistic breadth and mastery of a unique boundary-blurring approach, along with a developed sense of the total control exerted over their music at all times. ‘FLOOD’ is undoubtedly the sound of a band seizing and maximising a singular vision.

On the opening track, ‘Monolithium’ brings a pulverising gyrating intensity that unstoppably grinds through the gears to a riotous peak. 

SCALPING are the Bristol based group comprised of James Rushforth, Alex Hill, Isaac Jones, Jamie Thomas and Jason Baker, initially formed at the end of 2017 with a desire to pair their hometown's visionary, off-kilter dance music to the more organic instrumentation you might find in noise-rock and post-punk. They have since won all manner of plaudits at radio, press and through fervent word-of-mouth for both their eclecticism on record and for the pummelling intensity of their live performances.

lyrics:
so what i didn’t show up last night 
was so drunk i threw up and got in a fight 
you left and sure i guess that bites 
but i’m young and i know ima be alright 

so what i didn’t show up last night 
was so drunk i threw up and got in a fight 
you left and sure i guess that bites 
but i’m young and i know ima be alright

loves complicated 
i know you’ve waited for too long 
i wanna say it 
just don’t wanna come on to strong 

it’s like everytime you come around 
you find a way to break new ground 
i sing my pain out so loud 
now all these walls are coming down 

coming down 

so what i didn’t show up last night 
was so drunk i threw up and got in a fight 
you left and sure i guess that bites 
but i’m young and i know ima be alright 

so what i didn’t show up last night 
was so drunk i threw up and got in a fight 
you left and sure i guess that bites 
but i’m young and i know ima be alright

i know that im gonna be alright 
cause i’m so done with all the stupid fights 
i dont always do what’s right 
i feel like shit so i get high 

all the bullshit was killing me 
when your love was all that i really need 
i don’t know how you couldn’t see 
me and you was meant to be 

so what i didn’t show up last night 
was so drunk i threw up and got in a fight 
you left and sure i guess that bites 
but i’m young and i know ima be alright 

so what i didn’t show up last night 
was so drunk i threw up and got in a fight 
you left and sure i guess that bites 
but i’m young and i know ima be alright

VERSE. 
누가 날 자꾸 툭 툭 치는 느낌이 들어서
짜증 팍! 있는 힘껏 미간 평수 좁혀서
아 진짜 자는데 왜 사람 건드려선
짜증 나게 하는 건 대했더니 no one in my room
대체 who! 하는 순간에도 내 볼을 또 툭 
뭐지 하고 고갤 돌리려는 순간에도 툭
범인은 어이없게도 안으로 들이치는 빗방울이야
아, 맞아 비 안 온다더니만 기상청 이번에도 또

HOOK. 
비만 오면 왠지 모르게 
수많은 감정들이 으르렁대
혹시 모르니 억눌러둬
이성이 가출한 지금 이 시점엔
분명 뭘 하나마나
뭘 하나마나
뭘 하나마나
뭘 하나마나

VERSE. 
뭘 하나마나 다 똑같겠지
내버려 두면 분명 술집이나 또 가겠지
혼술 마스터한 나, 아무도 필요 없지
당당하게 발걸음을 맥줏집으로 옮기는데
Oh shit, 아니 방송에 나왔나, 갑자기 불어난 손님
아니면 나 못 들어오게 누가 사람 풀어놓으셨나
아 씨, 다 됐어! 뭐 다른 곳 가지 여기 아님 뭐 어때
미간 팍 찌푸린 채 나와서는 바로 골목 옆에도 똑같아
아 진짜 오늘 뭐야
되는 일 하나도 없어가지고 갑자기 확 멍함
그래 그냥 집이나 갈래
집 가서는 진짜 아무것도 안 할래

HOOK. 
비만 오면 왠지 모르게 
수많은 감정들이 으르렁대
혹시 모르니 억눌러둬
이성이 가출한 지금 이 시점엔
분명 뭘 하나마나
뭘 하나마나
뭘 하나마나
뭘 하나마나

하나마나
