What used to be
Oceans of skin
Have turned more violent
Than the sea
Even here
As I lay beside you
There's this feeling
That I can't shake
Staring constant
In a mirror of shame
I cannot peel
My eyes away
I am the compliment
To your cowardice
Could this be our withering
Crushed linen
Now covered in blood
Thought I woke up
In an abattoir
In the end
We're all buried in time
This is our withering
Was this God's behest
Impossible pursuit
I move through the room
As she says
The truth is
I am a burden
I held you there
Frozen in time
My mind went blank
With yours open wide
I held you there
Please don't leave me
But you'll never wake up
Please don't leave me
But you'll never wake up

Folk, electronics, Brazilian, and European sounds blend on Thomas Pappon's latest. Sounds like Air doing Tropicália. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 23, 2014
From L.A. comes the latest from post-rock outfit bondo, with tendrils of spindly guitar snaking through arid percussion. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 4, 2023
