1.
TOO MUCH PRESSURE CUT THE TENDON RELIEVE SOME TENSION LET THE MUSCLE SLOWLY CURL UP THE CALF PEEL THE TISSUE FURTHER BACK. EXPOSE THE BONE KEEP ON CUTTING KEEP ON LETTING KEEP ON GIVING FEED THE SOIL BLOOD AND OIL I’M PITIFUL A BURNING SORE CAGED AWAY TOO MUCH GAUZE

Tesseract 01:34
THIS ACHING CURSE BORED DIRECTLY IN MY CHEST IT WILL LIVE THERE FOR DAYS, SLOWLY HOLLOWING ME OUT. IT THICKENS MY BLOOD. IT BURIES A SWELLING PAIN DEEP IN MY SKULL. WATCH IT FEED. WITNESS MY FLESH FALL TO THE FLOOR. AS I GIVE THIS THING A HOME. MY HOME TO GIVE.
3.
BREAK APART EVERY SENTENCE DISSECT EVERY THOUGHT IT CAN’T BE SO ORDINARY THERE HAS GOT TO BE ANOTHER WAY EMOTIONS ARE SO DULL TO THE TOUCH BUT SO INTENSE AT THE CORE I’M NOT QUITE GRASPING IT, BUT I KNOW THAT THERE’S SOMETHING MORE.

TURNING THE DIALS LISTENING FOR MY OWN NAME THROUGH FM STATIC
5.
MY EYES DILATE THE INCESSANT, INQUISITIVE SALT IN ALL WOUNDS I SEE MYSELF AS A CHILD RUNNING AWAY FROM THE PAIN I’M FLOATING OUT OF IT THE CRYSTALLINE SHAPE OF BLOOD THE IDEA OF YELLOW EMBRACING BLACK IN THE WASH. IN THE DARK. I FIND MYSELF ALL PARTS OF ME ABANDONED BUT I’M NOT ALONE HERE. THE ONES YOU LOVE. THE ONES YOU HATE FOLLOW YOU DOWN TO CONFRONT THE WORST
6.
I CAN’T SCRAPE IT ALL CLEAN I CAN’T UNLOCK EVERY DOOR I FEEL LIKE I’VE BEEN HERE ONCE BEFORE BURIED IN CADENCE OF A FUNERAL DIRGE IS TO DENY THIS WORLD OF THE ABSURD I LONG TO DIVE HEAD FIRST INTO THE DIVINE AND PANIC FROM ALL THE SHIT I’LL FIND AND I’LL RAKE THE MUD INTO EVERY MAN-MADE CRACK THERE’S NO TURNING BACK. AND LET IT ALLOW ME TO SINK.

about

ON034 is from NIHIL UNBOUND, who you may remember from the Prowling For The Blasts 3 compilation a few months ago.

"Crushing powerviolence project from Leo Ulfelder (of Fissure, Deaf Club, Waternoose) - 7 blasting primitive and introspective tracks flush out this killer debut EP." (No Time words)

I first met Leo on the Fissure and Gets Worse European Tour in Summer 2015 (pre-me-joining-Gets-Worse but when I was touring with them doing their merch). Still one of my favourite tours, as they were fantastic guys to roadtrip with (and a great band, go listen to them!).

Leo is super talented, and this is an emotional battering of an EP (whether it be blasting or minimal), especially if you follow the lyrics too; plus it is topped off by an interesting cover. I am promised more is coming from Nihil Unbound...

Grab a cassette or limited clear lathe cut 10" vinyl of 'Great Oblivion Eternal' from No Time Records.
