Track ‘2’ from the 'PMP-EP'

Lyrics:
Oo, yeah
Bijara
Bahut batera

Trauma's nutrition for winners

Bas karo!
Bahut hai ga, bott. Get up

Look, what we've started
Look what we've started
What have we started
We're just getting started

Look what we've started
Look what we've started
What have we started
We're just getting started

Everybody's going bananas
Tic-tac-toe to tango
I've seen a fist turn a bum into a bangle
Still wanna suck on it from every angle
Big diction, spelling and grammar
We'll take a picture just to smash up the camera
'One chance comes as standard'
Cos everybody ends up like 'nana

Bas karo!
Bahut hai ga, bott. Get up
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Chup kar, kaam karo
Aith kar kuṛi shābāsh
I won't let you down

Some days you can't get up

'Get sucked off, not sucked in.'
Track 3 from the 'PMP-EP'

Lyrics:
Get sucked off, not sucked in
Piranhas, surround us, no doubt about it
Cover up to come in
Spreader

Now now, you’re in a room all by yourself
So say it louder
For all ma people, from the front to back
Gotta love it
Still a big crowd, in a room all by yourself
So say it louder
For all ma people, from the front to back

Well I guess you’re best believing in it
Yeah

It gets, around
Well I guess you’re best believing in it
It’s un-announced
We get down

Get sucked off not sucked in
Piranhas, surround us, no doubt about it
Cover up to come in
Spreader

Now now, you’re in a room all by yourself
So say it louder
For all ma people, from the front to back
Gotta love it
Still a big crowd, in a room all by yourself
So say it louder
For all ma people, from the front to back

And what you see, is undefined
I can’t believe, it’s by design
And if you want, you just might find
That piece you need, that peace of mind

Forever and ever on edge, I know

Too long, too tired, too late to try
We’ll run to meet you
With aching arms

Cover up to come in
Spreader

Now now, you’re in a room all by yourself
So say it louder
For all ma people, from the front to back
Gotta love it
Still a big crowd, in a room all by yourself
So say it louder
For all ma people, from the front to back

Well I guess you’re best believing in it
Yeah, ooo yeah

It gets around
It’s unannounced
It gets around
It’s unaccounted
We get down

Pain Means Progress
'I keep driving me round the bend'
Track 5 from the 'PMP-EP'

Lyrics:
Left foot, right foot’s enough
Here’s a life long prescription for get the fuck up
There’s so much more to being me than a switch of the shoes
There’s no need to live your life defined by abuse

Ey up, man! Just why don’t you
Get out more, get into
This world made just for you
Ey up, man! Why don’t you
Get into, this world made
Just for you eeeeeerm
Aw man, I keep driving me round the bend

Let me pop this inside you
Cos three times two’s six, yeah
Let me smear this around you

You don’t understand
How much, I’d give up
To learn what I’d learned these years in under a day
I’ve learned to love to what it looks like to live being me
Now I know how much it sucks to live being you

Ey up, man! Just why don’t you
Get out more, get into
This world made just for you
Ey up, man! Why don’t you
Get into, this world made
Just for you
Ey up, girl! Why don’t you
Get out more, in this world made
Just for you
That’s it guys why don’t we
Get into, this world made
Just for you and I
Really think that’s better off in you

Help me down
I’m blind
When I’m all on my own

Dose so fatal
You’re already an angel
To leave is to know
You wanna be all on your own

When I can see through the bottle it means you’ve downed ‘em again
A thousand could follow you but that’s no deterrent for you
What if it turned out different in the end
No-one to revive you, ah! How much would they cry for you girl

But she, seemed to
Have it
Figured out
Mainline, I can’t seem
I can’t seem to hear you breathing

Let me pop this inside you
Cos three times two’s six, yeah
Let me smear this around you
Pain means progress
It does

Pain means progress

Pain Means Progress

The Fish
'Fuck your mother'
Track 4 from the 'PMP-EP'

Lyrics:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Like all the fish we’re gonna die
If I said
I had a guide for your survival
Would you drop your life
And follow me in to the highlands
Where we could kundalini unguided
Yeah, until we’re
Passing out, passing out

Push it in, pull it out, don’t stop
I’m talking about your lungs and not your cock, ha
Hypervent for ventilation
Is it a panic attack or meditation
The little fish needs to cry
But your tears don’t work underwater
Must be alive to be able to be
Passing out, passing out

Breathe in
Take all, you can
Cos oh boy, you’re gonna need it
All
Sayonara, say goodbye to your
Old life and who you used to know
Used to be, find release in
Opening your arms to learn to love
A freer self, from me

It’s hot shit to say you’re damaged
Take the love and pass it on

Won’t you tell your mother that you love her
Won’t you tell your father that you love him
Notify your neighbour that you need them
Anything is real if you believe it
Fuck your mother
Jesus says, nail thy neighbour

1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Like all the fish we’re gonna die
Like all the fish we’re gonna die
Like all the fish we’re gonna die
Fuck all of the fucking fish
Passing out! Passing out

We’re drowning but we love it

The Fish

Mean It
'We nearly died'
Track 1 from the 'PMP-EP'

Lyrics:
Welcome to the start
Keep it familiar
With some blast beats banging
Till you're begging us to stop

An eye for an eye makes us blind
To behaviour we despise
No wonder we're surprised it rears its ugly head again

Surprise! Surprise. I said surprise
You're not surprised
Fuck we really tried
We really tried
We really tried
We nearly died

We grow
Through fails
So re-rise
Re-trained
But say that you mean it
Say that you mean it, yeah

Sidestep yourself, check

Get on and snap out of it
We need you more than lucid
The pain is universal it's evidently conclusive
We wanna, performa but be mindful not to abuse it

Sidestep yourself, check

No confidence, you're competent 
But probably just too guarded
A party's to take apart the part you play 
And not get started
Your call is not important to us
We don't care what it's regarding

I can't do with you teasing
I need to know, you mean it
Do you mean it? Yeah

Does time stand still stood up?
Don't check your watch
Watch right to the end
Does time stand still stood up?
Don't check your watch

Gather round
Take a seat
Open your ears
And close your beaks

It's your fault
That no-one cares
So so long
Say your prayers

Can't stop, can't stop
Stop feeling the get downs
Can't run, can't hide
Nowhere from the get downs
Put 'em up, in a ring
Knocked out by the gets downs
And if you try, you just might
Fall in love with the get downs

You've suffered

Surprise! Surprise. I said surprise
You're not surprised
Fuck we really tried
We really tried
We really tried
We nearly died

We grow
Through fails
So re-rise
Re-trained
But say that you mean it
Say that you mean it, yeah

I can't do with you teasing
Now I know, you mean it
Do you mean it, yeah

Does time stand still stood up
Don't check your watch
Watch right to the end
Does time stand still stood up
Don't check your watch
Watch right to the end

Mean It

We are a three-piece band of disenfranchised nobodies, from a city of good heart and unfulfilled promise. This compact disc was forged at a time when humanity is divided; where extreme right and left wing ideology governs our fate, algorithms predict and push your every purchase, your academic skills are rendered irrelevant and big business herds us like cattle through endless automated systems. 

This EP is an audio presentation of the descent of one’s personal expectations - from self-belief, to self-doubt, to complete isolation. We’re a generation that craves more than what our leaders can provide; a desire we will be denied the satisfaction of our entire lives.

Imagine this playlist as an air balloon for us all to share. Enabling us, united through division, to climb aboard and watch the fires rage on from a distance. Your call is important to us because you are important to us. But remember, we will never be important to them...


Your call is important to us

A sennheiser 441 on the lead vocal and the breathy/screamy vocals recorded with a little gem owned by Alex Eden of Factory Street Studios. He likes to call it 'The Bomb'. An apt name, I'm sure you'll agree.

Track 1 from 'Digital Immigrant EP'

You're looking for meaning where there shouldn't be.

Digital Immigrant EP

I've got no hands

Triggered Tuesday is now officially a thing.

It doesn't always come at 12am sharp but it always comes. Always. Whether it's on a Tuesday or not is irrelevant. Getting hung up on the details is for losers, like us. 

We're aiming, from here on out, to release a piece of music every month. Recording in our rehearsal space, taking DIY by the horns.

Unfortunately, our digital distributor buggered off for Christmas and won't upload this to major streaming services till January. Sorry but you'll just have to hear it on either SoundCloud or Bandcamp, both of which work perfectly fine on your phone and on your computer so relax.

Anyhow, we're super wet to present to you, Triggered Tuesday #001 - Love Me

It's short but urgent. Recorded in our room, Love Me is a clearing of our chest into your face.

Thanks for taking it like a champ.

We lost our recording space and still (sorta) released a record. 
What's your excuse? 

Recorded in a grandad's bedroom.



Lyrics:
This leather won’t hold me up for much longer
I can’t hear someone say it'll be better tomorrow
I need it now, damn it, listen
Please keep your mouth shut
Don’t dare say, (you’ve so much to give)

What can I say to make you feel better?
All that I ask’s we get, through, the night
I won’t sleep, so that, you’ll always be

But it’s moving too fast, let me off, let me off
It’s moving too fast, let me off

Life no seasoning 
Heart beats but no meaning
All I need’d be gone
With you

Don’t delay
Your life’s at stake

Stop it

Is this what you wanted
All the life that you squandered
You get what is deserved
Am I not what you wanted now!?

We’re what makes us sick

Can, you feel it,
A snap, bang or crack and it’s gone
I can’t keep screaming
All I leave belongs
To you

ATTACK

BUT WE WON’T LET YOU DIE

Embargo - Triggered Tuesday 005

‘You’re fair game to us’

Lyrics:
Extra extra extra 
Read all about it
News of the world
Don’t try to fight it
Open mouth expression
You’re all invited

The ink is on the roller
Time to expose em
Bursting at the borders
No land to hold em
Cause enough to bomb em
Shoved to the bottom 
Good enough to rob em
Can’t live without em

See it, hear it, write it,
No need to verify
Man, woman or child 
Fair game to vilify
Public need to know but
The truth we never show 
Lie it, print it, sell it
You hear em screaming for

MORE! MORE!
WE WANT, MORE!
PUSH EM OUT, THE DOOR!
WE WANT MORE!

You’re fair game to us
No line we will not cross

Triggered Tuesday 005

Embargo - Triggered Tuesday #005

You no clean - Triggered Tuesday 006

'Make it stop.'

I can't control myself
Don't give me a reason to break your neck
Please talk me out of this
Why does my reflection make me

Sick, twist, contort

Have I been here before
This hell I do adore
Control yourself
This is dangerous
To confide in us
(Come lose your God and spit on angels)

And choose ourselves
In this severance
From all we love

(Please God)
Make it stop
(Won't you)
Cure this itch
Cos I am done
With all of it

(Must get clean, must get clean)

I have seen the end
The rapture is yours for a minor price
What would you let me do?
I want to shine, parts of you

Cos you're like a silver medal
Never first but second level
Pressure's real can never settle
Please say it's not forever, say it's not forever, say it's not

Have I been here before
This hell I do adore
Control yourself
This is dangerous
To confide in us
(Come lose your God and spit on angels)
And choose yourself
In this severance
From all you love

I can't release myself
Why don't you come see
What you're made of

(I won't die)

I know what's right
Must be the last man standing
All costs
I know what's right
Must be the last man standing
All costs, don't stop

I've been here, before
This hell, is mine alone

Need, re-lease
Just, a squeeze
I want to reach inside of you
And make you sleep

You liar

BROWN Boy - Triggered Tuesday 007

'Nobody's the colour they want'

Tongue’s are bombs, words are nuclearised
Cultural prose stand like soldiers in lines
Whilst your children they kill themselves
I don’t know if these walls, will not crumble

But we don’t need
To break the skin 
Words are violence
When I 
Scream through you

I’m a half at least a white boy, black boy
But you’ll never be the same as them boy, you clone boy
Sticks and stones familiar tricks boy, so don’t miss boy
Don’t talk about your love for dick boy, sick boy
It’s us versus them boy, you hear boy
There’s nobody gonna shed a tear for you, brown boy, when you die boy

Rainbows choke my output
Oppressed, opressor, tyrant 
MAN I’m all that you need

List the parts that I’m allowed to love
What is it of me you see when the lights are off
Quick to hush my mouth when I, open up
Is it me or just the skin, you love

Nobody’s the colour they want
Nobody’s the colour they want
Nobody’s the colour they want
Nobody’s the colour they want

Dark grass can’t grow
His mouth’s shut, why’s his mouth shut
When we’re starved of light
Her mouth’s shut, why’s her mouth shut
So don’t wait too long
Your mouth’s shut, why’s your mouth shut
Rise above the divide
Take. Sides. 

If ‘we’ win
We all LOSE

XtraX - Triggered Tuesday #008

'...sometimes, I cry for no reason at all.'

Life is pain
So inhale the numbness
Exhale, revel in dumbness
Choices choices
Cooperate obliterate
Alone, as one
Together we suffer 
We’ll never be more than a number
You’ll break
Hide away, medicate

Doctor please, I don’t want, to be
Like this or like that but like them
Cos sometimes
I cry for no reason, at all

It’s our own fault
This life’s what you’re living

Count to ten, back from ten
Breathe in out, in and out
Walls of shrinks closing in
Therapist, I have sinned

Open wide
Effects aside
Don’t you long to feel like
Everyone else, it’s all the rage, swallow the hype
Change my mind
By design
Fold and bend
So I can
Fit the roles I’m not supposed to


Everybody’s screaming 
There’s gotta be meaning 
With all of these opinions I’m crawling on the ceiling 
Scrolling is my heroin 
Comparing’s how I better me 
Constant self belittling 
What is that you think of me

HEY! You’re not that bad a guy

Fuck me harder 
I thought you knew that I am capable, more than capable of murdering
I am a monster
You’re fresh blood to me. 
Don’t struggle and let me peel you off, show you, you bask in sin

Come in, sit on the couch
And tell me
When did this start

I know
Everyone’s crazier than me
If only
They would believe

Lock and load, here we go
Used to be need to know but
I’m not well, I need help
Life is hell, life is hell

Open wide
Forced inside
Don’t you long to feel like
Everyone else, it’s all the rage, swallow the hype
Erase my mind
No rewind
Fold and bend
So I can fit this
Grave of your design

'Blood spilt's thicker than hashtag stickers'

Portrait or wide
Life in sixteen by nine
Force smile repeat
Am I a Jones or am I me

With every, new follower 
I become hollower
Sign in, it's free
Twitch stream, pill bottle
You dare me to swallow it
Caps lock to scream

Hey, is this real life
Please elaborate
I got a ticket to another dimension
My life is struggling with viewer retention
I wanna feel it
Is this real love
Are you listening
I wanna paint you in a different light
I wanna see your other side

Take responsibility
Binge, purge, binge, purge
Drugs are healthy in moderation
Silence
Censor words like
Left, right
Tweetstorms are flooding the entire nation

Back over the wall
We want the end of it
How can we be friends
When you just take the benefits
Corporate whore
Products like heroin 
Yeah your all loving God, well, he don't give a shit

More bombs
Business as usual
Guns, shares and prayers
The onlooker's manual
Reprint

Share the same, thing

Spin, using ink
Digital or print
Don't think

Hey! I wanna see tradition
Spit out
Hey! I wanna fit you all in my mouth
Don't shoot, my friend
Cos blood spilt's thicker than hashtag stickers

Oh yeah! Is this real life
Please elaborate
I got a ticket to another dimension
My life is struggling with viewer retention
I wanna feel it
Is this real love
Are you listening
I wanna paint you in a different light
I wanna see your other side
Yeah
Your other side
Yeah

'Harassment's lit'

I am a psycho... therapist
I got the acronyms to match your behaviour
It's a t-t-tease
All of that trauma deep inside
You deserve it, look at the way you dress
You're so big, you're so strong
Gotta use it to abuse it

Hey! Hey! Hey! Put your comment in my mouth
Hey! Hey! Hey! Put your comment in my mouth
I'll beg for more
Hey! Hey! Hey! Won't you comment in my mouth

Don't look back, stick to my guns
I hate you, you know it
I use the n-word just for fun
I just keep running
On the spot, never stop
You'll all grow to love me

When I make you suffer, it's ok just remember

God's love's all around
God's love's all around, you
It's just not easy to find you right now

Friends are fragile, they all die

You know I love it
Dirty bitch
Is that too forward
Why wouldn't I love it
It makes me sick
It's how I know you want me

I'll burn your house down
Kill your kids
Take pics with my dick out
Harassment's lit
Proud grammar nazis
Commit lolacaust
Threats are great from a far
Truth don't stand up in court

God's love's all around
God's love's all around, you
It's just not easy to find you right now
Boo hoo

Hey! Hey! Hey! Put your comment in my mouth
Hey! Hey! Hey! Put your comment in my mouth
I'll beg for more
Hey! Hey! Hey! Won't you comment on me

'Feast upon the peasants'

No race but we’re winning
NA NA NA
Progress can’t be sinning
Growing’s infinite
Wars are fought in python
Napalm Jargon
Feast upon the peasants
They’re worth more money in heaven

BOOOOOM
Nerds will
Save our world
All you gotta do is
Click accept all

Gradings for your failings
Campus ailing
Developing nations with nations of developers
Trailer parks are tweaking t-t-t-to Ivy leaguing
Dance to algorithms 
Cause disruption is our mission

Your culture's
Gotta go
Make way
For the new 
World

UH-HUH UH-HUH UH-HUH
Bend over for the

Turn me on like adderall
Get it done I don’t have long
Turn me on like adderall
Does it melt under the tongue
With your lives a game we play
(He said)
Turn me on like adderall
Get it done I don’t have long
Turn me on like adderall
Does it melt under the tongue
Silence will spade our graves

Punk. You better watch out.
Bitch. You better watch out.

We know the world needs healing
Pain is what you’re feeling
But life don’t have a meaning
So fuck em
We wanna make a million, No we gotta make a million
I mean billion maybe trillions, we’ll just steal it from
You

Life is better in hell

Won’t you live in the world we’ve made
(She said)
Turn me on like adderall
Get it done I don’t have long
Turn me on like adderall
Does it melt under the tongue
With your lives a game we play
(He said)
Turn me on like adderall
Get it done I don’t have long
Turn me on like adderall
Does it melt under the tongue
Can’t you see our lives are shit.
