You just won't lie down. Even closing your eyes, you can't let it go, Surrounded inside. Leave it alone. You don't get it back Undoing the scenes you can't explain, Whatever you dream That you've buried away. It seems like you're there as someone removed And left in their place with nothing to do. Bound to the switch. Railing again at the thought of the fight For well-earned dissent Undeserved at the time. As you've been shown, the motion has gone A shade of the night, only leading you on.

The benefit of living in NYC (I recently moved after living there for nearly 25 years)! I remember one show where they didn’t have a full band and Oren played drums and guitar at the same time. The space in their music allows for that sort of thing, but it still was pretty cool to see.

Sunn O))) or some really repetitive and droney black metal like Burzum’s Filosem
I agree, something like a verified product broadsheet that includes information about the product, but also provides information on where it is sourced and manufactured, who is doing the labor of production, where it can be serviced, how long its expected use... to provide the consumer fuller picture of utility.

The oral history form, a la “Please Kill Me” and “Meet Me in the Bathroom” really suits this tale.
