lyrics

She left pieces of herself everywhere
Said she wanted it this way
She said she wanted it this way
So no one would forget her if they had a piece all their own
A piece they could keep
And she had so many to lose
Yeah, we all got so much to lose
We're all just pieces lost
We're all just bullet holes
I haven't slept since I met her
Haven't slept in years
Up at night recovering the pieces she's lost trying to make her whole again
Because all that's left is shadows and bones slipping through my hands
I haven't slept since I met you
Perhaps you wanted it this way
Maybe I wanted it this way
So that I could not forget you
Because you never stay
It had to be this way so I'd never forget you
As transparent as her teeth in the smile not for me and I'll take whatever is left
I will take whatever's left

Full confession: We're a little biased, because this was originally a MetalSucks release. But we'll tell you why we were so passionate about it in the first place: it is a wholly unique vision, a mixture of intense, anxiety-inducing grindcore and larger-than-life, bluesy wails. Doesn't hurt that Converge's Kurt Ballou produced it, either! MetalSucks.net

Caustic
by Primitive Man

supported by 4 fans who also own “The Weight”

Bought this thing on my laptop to listen to during my 80 minute classes. It’s the only thing loud enough to drown out my teachers. It’s become kind of an everyday listen for me at this point. With every listen I realize more and more that Caustic is the heaviest record ever made. colek_WM

This album will pummel you into submission and you will love every second of it. Made endlessly replayable by its unnerving experimental undertones. Sam
