holes in my walls from pulling out thumbtacks
i hate everything i loved six months back
pls dont look at me im sick and so sad
i can breathe as long as u dont know that

u dont really ask how i am so its easy
i dont really care if u dont want to see me
honestly im finding my face hard to look at
i dont wanna try cause im tired of the pushback

things can feel exactly right and go bad
i need to remember, need to know that
i can't move, i'm so scared to be shown it
again and again
i don't have any friends from when i was a kid and i'm so glad

i haven't seen anybody i've known for a long time
in a long time, in a long time

i'll never see me through your eyes again, it hurts too much

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

GRAVE118 - Whirr 'Sway' out 9/23/14 on CD/LP/Tape/Digital (pre-order here: www.graveface.com/graveface-catalog.html)

When Sway begins, you might at first press pause, reaching for your headphone wire or peeking behind your speaker cables to make sure nothing has come undone. The blister of distorted guitar that opens the album comes only from the right channel, howling and hanging there in irascible isolation until it seems that something must be wrong.
But be patient: After a dozen seconds, the rest of Whirr—a five-piece of blanketing rock focus and comforting pop finesse—pours in from the left channel. They meet the guitar in the middle, together racing headlong into a short section that’s heavy as metal but pliable enough to be the springboard for the galloping shoegaze beauty that soon arrives.
For the next 36 minutes, you need not worry again about lost connections, split channels or anything else, really. More than any Whirr release to date, Sway creates a definitive sense of immersion, sculpting an environment that breathes you in instantly and breathes you out only when the record snaps into silence.
That bifurcated start is an appropriate image for Whirr in 2014. Last year, the band headlined a tour with the Philadelphia group and fellow admirers of heaviness and harmony, Nothing. Not only did the crews become fast friends, but their respective founders—Whirr’s Nick Bassett and Nothing’s Dominic Palermo—decided to start a group of their own, Death of Lovers. When the shared tour was finished, Bassett headed to Philadelphia for a month of writing and recording. He’s never really left. He calls Philadelphia home now, so Whirr has become a bicoastal band.
In Philadelphia, Bassett worked on Death of Lovers’ debut for Deathwish Inc., toured as the bassist for Nothing and steadily composed new material for the next Whirr album, their first full-length for Graveface. Back in Oakland, the rest of Whirr had committed to the project full-time, too, so the West Coast contingent wrote and rehearsed new material without Bassett. Joey Bautista took the lead on two songs, Loren Rivera on three.
Indeed, against most odds, Bassett’s move made for a more democratic Whirr. In their salad days, Bassett had written most of the material and built the bulk of the arrangements, too, using the support only to enrich and enliven them. After a slew of splits and singles and EPs, Sway is the second Whirr LP, but it is only the first to be rendered by a fully functional rock band, having shaped the songs slowly and over some distance.
Before the quintet entered Oakland’s Atomic Garden to work with longtime producer and collaborator Jack Shirley, they reworked the contributions of all three writers, massaging the material into a cohesive dynamo. Rivera, for instance, rewrote the words for Bassett’s material, folding his songs into the album’s presiding sense of dusky melancholy.
“It’s not conceptual, entirely, but it’s intended to ebb and flow in a certain way—one song being aggressive, then dropping out and being pretty but devastating,” Bassett says. “We tried to create an atmosphere, where you listen and get vibed into one tone. ”
That rhythm presides over Sway, tying its distinct parts into a seamless unit. The restless “Heavy” churns somewhere between Godflesh and Gish, its lumbering beat and foreboding guitar buoyed by a melody that feels like a secret hymn for which you’ve long searched. Gorgeous and sprawling, “Sway” floats through luxuriating guitars and pillowed vocals, offering an impressionistic but intoxicating inversion of Whirr’s typical propulsion. Even here, during the record’s prettiest moment, Whirr maintains a righteous minimalism, emblematic of members who met one another as skateboarding high-school kids.
“The aesthetic of the band is more aimed at mature punk rather than alternative rock,” Bassett confirms. “There are these more aggressive punk elements—noisy feedback, a snare roll that just goes into super-punchy, driving songs.”
“Clear” brilliantly paints its lyrical quest for lucid communication—“I want words/to understand you,” runs one plaintive, surging bit—in music that takes up the same challenge. Whirr pushes past a pastel instrumental haze into a hangdog march, with near-whispered vocals bruised by Devin Nunes’ drums and Eddie Saldago’s orotund bass line. But as the end approaches, the band builds together, the riffs and the rhythm colliding into one triumphant, redemptive crest.
And that’s the victory of Sway, too, an album written by five people on two coasts but executed with the force and splendor of, at last, a fully unified Whirr.
Graveface will release Sway on CD, LP and digitally September 23.

This is not my song! I only own the translation featured below. Image from the official music video.

English translation by me:

幼い頃 殺めた命は数えきれず
小さな命を葬っては平然と笑って帰路についた
今になって考えたら真っ先に死ぬのは私でよかった

I can't count how many lives I killed when I was young
I'd bury an insignificant life, smile calmly, then head home
When I think about it now, I should have been the one to die from the start

うらうらとした周りの空気が濃くて
存在価値を奪うでしょ

The lively atmosphere surrounding me thickens
as if trying to steal my value to society

生命線とか無駄に長いだけで
何の役にも立たないただのしわだよ
心の奥がしょうもない人生観を嘆いているの
耳に刺さる理想 吐き捨てて

Things like lifelines are just needlessly long, (1)
wrinkles in time serving no purpose
At the back of my mind, I lament such a hopeless view of life
Spitting out ideals that stab into my ears

消えてしまいたい生涯なんてもんにどんな値が付いて
自己中心的だって？思いの欠片も知らないで
どうせ向こう数十年経った先では煙たがれて
なら私を刺して殺して奪って去って

What value is there to life when you just want to die?
That's selfish, you say? I don't understand the thought
Of course, after a decade or so, I'll just be a nuisance
so stab me, kill me, and take me away already

あの世行きのバスに乗ってさらば
I'm getting on the bus to the other world, see ya

幼い頃 馬鹿にされたことも忘れきれず
身に覚えのない理不尽さが頭から離れてくれないんだ
今になって考えたら何故飲み込んだのか
歯向かえばよかった

I can't forget when I was made fun of as a kid
I hadn't realized just how outrageous it was, and now the thought won't leave my mind
When I think about it now, why did I just accept it as it was?
I should have fought back

もやもやとした人混みの中を這って
存在価値を示すのよ

Crawling through the depressing crowd,
I make an effort to display my value to society

幸福論とか無駄に深いだけで
何の役にも立たないただの文字だよ
浅い心がパッとしない焦燥感に駆られているの
時だけが経って戻れないな

Things like the theory of happiness are just needlessly deep (2)
words serving no purpose
My shallow heart slowly succumbs to irritation
Time just goes on, unable to go back

消えてしまいたい生涯なんてもんにどんな芽が生えて.
面倒くさい奴だって？お前の声とか要らないわ.
どうせ向こう数十年経った先まで持ち越すだけ.
なら私を刺して殺して奪って去って

What good can come from your life when you just want to die?
I'm bothersome to be around? I didn't ask for your opinion.
Of course, I'll just shelve those words for decades to come
so stab me, kill me, and take me away already

消えてしまいたい生涯なんてもんに意味はあるんですか
Is there meaning to life when you just want to die?

消えてしまいたい生涯なんてもんに夢はあるんですか
Even though you just want to die, do you still have dreams?

無いじゃん
I have none at all

消えてしまいたい生涯なんてもんにどんな値が付いて.
辛いよね分かるよだって？分かったようなこと言わないで.
どうせ向こう数十年経った先でも嘆いていて.
なら私を刺して殺して奪って去って.

What value is there to life when you just want to die?
It's hard and it hurts so much, don't you get that? Don't act like you understand
Of course, after a decade or so, I'll still lament it
so stab me, kill me, and take me away already

それが私に出来る最初で最後の悪あがきだ
For me, that is my first and last struggle in vain

あの世行きのバスに乗ってさらば
I'm getting on the bus to the other world, see ya

でも私は悔いて叫んで雨が降って
But then, I regret and scream under the pouring rain

Translator Notes
1: Your lifeline is a line on your palm that is supposed to tell how long you have left to live
2: The theory of happiness says that accepting the impermanence of life is the path to true happiness; this is usually used on people with depression

LYRICS
Can't count the years one hand
That we've been together
I need the other one to hold you.
Make you feel, make you feel better.
It's not a walk in the park
To love each other.
But when our fingers interlock,
Can't deny, can't deny you're worth it

Cause after all this time.
I'm still into you

I should be over all the butterflies
But i'm into you (I'm in to you)
And baby even on our worst nights
I'm into you (I'm into you)
Let em wonder how we got this far
Cause I don't really need to wonder at all
Yeah after all this time
I'm still into you

Recount the night that I first 
Met your mother
And on the drive back to my house
I told you that, I told you that I loved ya.
You felt the weight of the world
Fall off your shoulder
And to your favorite song
We sang along to the start of forever

And after all this time.
I'm still into you

I should be over all the butterflies
But i'm into you (I'm in to you)
And baby even on our worst nights
I'm into you (I'm into you)
Let em wonder how we got this far
Cause I don't really need to wonder at all
Yeah after all this time
I'm still into you

Some things just, 
Some things just make sense
And one of those is you and I
Some things just,
Some things just make sense
And even after all this time
I'm into You
Baby not a day goes by that
I'm not into you

I should be over all the butterflies
But i'm into you (I'm in to you)
And baby even on our worst nights
I'm into you (I'm into you)
Let em wonder how we got this far
Cause I don't really need to wonder at all
Yeah after all this time
I'm still into you
I'm still into you
I'm still into you
