jumpkicktotheface Snack on this platter of potent and positive punk played powerfully. It will placate your palate's need for pugnacious proclamations and portents, and perhaps prompt you to pound your piehole into a glass window.

Oh As 2022 rolls on its looking more and more likely this will remain my personal choice for album of the year. My opinion may not be worth a shit, but this records worth its weight in weapon-grade plutonium. I also don’t know the cost per weight of weapon-grade plutonium. But you should own this record in your collection if you don’t already. Favorite track: Our Rage.

Pushin 02:03
Politicians wanna fuck us into submission Decimation, the bill of rights and the constitution Pushin’ like I won’t push back Stressin’ me out, I’m gonna fuckin crack Gimmie no credit, Cut me no slack Push me around, I’m gonna fuckin crack And to the republic for which it stands A nation built using our hands Are we slaves or citizens? My ambition, to make my way in this fucked up system Degradation, You tear me down, but I won’t give in
2.
Generation gnashing silver teeth Rotten apples fall from dying trees Anxiety, disorder, arrogance, turmoil. Pressurized, super charged, powder keg, mobile. Infectious, insatiable, disastrous Anxiety and shame Spiritually baron, glutinous wasteland Cosmetically enhanced, drunk social cannibals Scream, “off with his head!” Horny for blood. What a tragedy. What a shame What’s next?! It’s right now They keep coming Repent! We’re hell bound The city never truly sleeps Claw your way to the top of the heap Silver spoons, scorched lips, city streets Worked to the bone, while bankers retire A whole generation is fuel for the fire Bumping the wknd we happily drink gasoline Wrinkled, decrepit, scheming chldprdtrs Write laws for the hopeless to inevitably break Stay locked in their mansions Engorged and armed to the teeth What’s next?! Its right now They keep coming and cumming Repent! We’re hellhound The city never truly sleeps We never truly sleep
3.
Soul Vulture 01:36
Antagonize my eyes Laughing in my face Visions of creeps dancing in my head Rats in the walls Scratching the ceiling Taunting and haunting Something’s out to kill me Malicious entity Malevolent spirit A nightly torture (sleepless again) Stealing my essence Soul vulture eating Hollow and vulnerable at the mercy of a demon Succubus feeding Hollow and vulnerable at the mercy of a demon
4.
Spread thin, life in two world Its draining doing what I’m told I fear I’m riding for a fall This tight rope act is getting old Riding for a fall Masquerading in human skin I feel my patience wearing thin Eyes kept low Tensions high Light the fuse And wave goodbye
5.
Nervous system, transmitting signals Dictating actions, spine burns, body squirms Wartime visions, catatonic prison This skin we live in, nervous system I can’t deal with these things I see when I close my eyes And yet I can’t wake Frozen stiff, trapped inside
6.
Rods and cones decipher The silhouette of a tiger I didn’t take you for a fighter The universe expands Generations pass with a glance And still unmoved.. He’s got the whole wide world in his hand He shot his shot and could have won But now its time to clean his gun Coliseum columns erode beneath the roman sun “I do this shit all the time” “It’s how I like to unwind” Send the signal so they find It’s windy for a piss and that’s the nature of our problem
7.
From sea to sea, future mass graves Back by popular demand, we’ve got the black plague It’s hard to breathe when the air’s not safe Hard to survive in this modern day hell scape Who’s to blame? Clutching technology we’re going down in flames Who’s to blame? Apocalyptic wet dream, dystopian reality I can’t breathe! Silent screams keep the blood steady curdling I can’t breathe! Dont wanna live in this dystopian reality Kids in cages, what a fucking disgrace And feds can scoop you off the streets without a trace Killer cops taking lives with impunity People of color don’t feel safe in their community
8.
Frantic Life 01:40
Clocking in from nine to five You’d kill yourself to survive Frantic life is tragic Frantic life is sick The game is rigged. No way to win This broken system is fuckin’ fixed On no one else, can you rely Fighting each day, just to get by Aaaahhhhh! There’s no way to win! Your check is spent before your workday begins Carve your own path, make your own rules Use your own mind, you’ve got the tools
9.
Rats 00:36
Rats will come through You can’t stop the rats Rats will consume We’re on the attack
10.
Our Rage 01:51
Fuck off! Serve and protect! All we get, is hurt and neglect Our worst nightmares now coming true Perpetrated by the bastards in blue Your moral compass is fucked Pig shit for brains, you fuckin’ suck Towing the line for a racist system Pack ‘em like sardines inside your private prisons They fan the flames Escalate and divide They mean to conquer and so we must unite and fight We can’t conceal our rage Our disappointments burned Into the expression on our face You can’t conceal your hate Your prejudice, it drips like piss From your wicked face
11.
Void 02:04
I’m feeling nothing I will destroy everything Time’s always ticking But it means nothing to me I can not feel. Am I not real? I am a void. I have no choice There will be suffering There’s no escaping With no distinction I bring absolute extinction Surrender your life to me Surrender surrender Your suffering is sweet
12.
Slaughter 02:21
Devine pilgrimage On stolen land No respect for indigenous Spare no human Slaughter and conquer Perpetrated massacre Human commodity Manifest destiny Pushed off ancestral lands A pseudo helping hand America shall be From sea to shining sea
13.
Jackals 01:50
The fucking jackals gather ‘round Miserable as fuck Looking for an easy target Sucking up the fun like a load of spunk That’s right - You’re never gonna get to me I’m busy living life Be a force for positivity Or end up dead inside Exhausting macho posturing Desperate as fuck Miss me with your tired horseshit Get a clue, give it up
14.
Fourteen 01:15
Don’t you like what you see? Reflection is not what you’d hope it to be Have you grown tired and weak? Worn, hardened by the working week Don’t you still say what you mean Like you did at fourteen Once, so full of angst Did you fight for what you hoped you could change? What got lost along the way? Did you forget all the words we used to say? Don’t let the fire inside fade Hold it with both hands. Embrace the grenade Remember the rage Hold onto the passion and don’t act your age
