No Constraint

“'Doin’ Alright' feels like floating through a montage of moments from a past relationship from a 3rd person perspective. Some sweet and sentimental moments, others problematic in hindsight. The sounds, melodies, and harmonies feel like the space between the time of a heartbreak, and the present day having healed from it. The lyrics feel like the knowledge that you’ll never quite be the same, but probably in a good way."

Do U Mind?

Doin' Alright

'Puzzles'

I feel myself
Getting older
I feel myself
Growing colder

People saying the things that they say,
I'll never believe it anyways

I feel myself
Feeling tired
I feel myself
Feeling weary

Thinking to a time way before
Whereas the question ceased of what for

I'm in the dark
And I feel frightened
I'm in the dark
And oh so frightened

Bitterness enters my heart of which I welcome with a sly remark

The feeling's lost
In this puzzle
The feeling's lost
In this puzzle

And I just don't seem to know where I am to go

What if I climbed back down off the table?
Stopped mouthing off to the kids around the neighborhood
Put it in park at the farm market parking lot
I eye em as they try to buy the fruits of their labor
White smoke pouring from a 4-door truck and the stereo’s stuck playing Smooth Operator
Reaching for your gun or your sticking out your tongue spitting sibilant scum I’m like “cool see you later”
But wow
Who you gonna bark at now?
Where you gonna park that truck?
What’re you gonna drive around?
I know you like to back it in
But how you gonna back it out?
Oh you’re gonna fuck it up?
Or are you gonna pass the buck huh?
Oh my wow!
Who you gonna bark at now?
Where you gonna park that truck?
What’re you gonna drive around?
I know you like to back it in
But how you gonna back it out?
Oh you’re gonna fuck it up?
Or are you gonna pass the buck huh?
E-F-F-E-C-T pedal is it a signal chain maze or a short in the cable?
Alot of these songs might be long in the tooth like a phone booth dial tone smooth operator
Wow!
Who you gonna bark at now?
Where you gonna park that truck?
What’re you gonna drive around?
I know you like to back it in
But how you gonna back it out?
Oh you’re gonna fuck it up?
Or are you gonna pass the buck huh?

FIXED LENS emerged from the smoke-filled basement rooms of Berlin’s DIY scene in 2021 with their eponymous debut EP. Cold, driving machinery beats and ethereal synths establish the foundation for melancholic, chorus-drenched post-punk guitars. Championing the spirit of guitar-driven bands such as JOY DIVISION, KILLING JOKE, CHAMELEONS UK, and THE SOUND, the group simultaneously nods to the roots of Berlin’s electronic origin story in these six tracks.

A dark and radical music produced in contrast to a sanitized and normalized era. Brigade Apache's First Album suggests a convincing alternative: bifurcation and dissidence. An abrasive and wild Sci-Fi space opera, unclassifiable Electro/Acid/New Beat/Post Punk, "Firefly" introduces the possibility of pogo on the dancefloor, through a melancholic and brutal soundtrack carried by machines played like guitars in a garage, and illustrated by the enigmatic landscapes of Laura Kopf who designed the album's cover.
