Neighbors hear my tale, tale heart
kicking round the floorboards after dark.
Underneath the fabric of rug and time,
a rat king sewn of oats and twine.
Ringside seats to the fever dream.
A rock 'em sock 'em good time.
Bone holds the spokes, the meat wheel groans,
throwing cartwheels at the night.
There it is, etched in the dust,
the proof of us with no eyes to see.
Loaves and fishes and other dead missions
hanging heavy on the tree.
Ringside seats to the everything.
Throw 'em back, have a ruckus good time.
Bone holds the spokes, the meat wheel throws
cartwheels burning through the night.
Tense post-punk from Big Supermarket, “1800” threads bent-wire guitars through blinking keys and dead-eyed vocal lines. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 9, 2018
More music from Jim Guthrie’s acclaimed score for “Below,” “Vol. II” is another batch of absorbing, synth-driven worldbuilding. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 1, 2020
