2 tracks from the upcoming @ageofdespairhc LP.
1 old one, 1 new one.
Enjoy.
Playing music with cool people is fun.
Can't wait to play these live.
Can't wait for you all to hear the LP.
Bandcamp/Spotify link in bio.

INVISIBLE HAND
Overseers, manipulators
Architects of a dark design
Invisible hand around your throat
Nightmare unfolds, fear is taking hold
Calloused husks, dead-eyed souls
Drained of life, automaton
Crawl and beg debase yourself
Kiss the hand that feeds you misery

Here comes the war
Here comes the war
Towers will fall
Here comes the war

ELEGY
The blood
The needle
The tube
The jaundice
Decay
Disease
Now leaving your body

Inside my heart; a hole
The mouth of pain still hungers
A wound that can't ever heal
Relief that won't ever come

Can't fill this endless void
Can't find the will to live
I'm sinking, I'm drowning
Alone beneath the surface

This week has been a blast. Got to watch the homies in @wishenderon and they let me yell at people for a song. I got to see some of the youngbucks throwdown and rip some sets yesterday as well.
It makes me beyond happy to see FCHC thriving and to see all the new bands and faces.
Listen to @huntingseason.519
Listen to @curbgrinhc
Listen to @worldofworry
Listen to @blood.wraith
I'm always gonna shout out @maulingpv

The community is only as strong as its local shows and people.
@forestcityhardcore is putting in the work 💅
Start a band. Start a zine. Show up. Make friends (and mosh on them).

Sappy post: Complete.

xReverendx - xSelf-Titledx is OUT NOW!!

This has been a very long time coming
Most of these songs are really old and I’m so glad they’ve finally been able to become something. What started out as a project for me to learn how to play guitar and then changing the idea many times to then sitting on my hard drive to collect dust. Thankfully Aidan pushed me to continue and put these songs out. Thankfully he put up with my pickiness! Here’s to writing music with your friends to have fun, here’s to not stressing about music, here’s to pushing yourself to switch it up
