lyrics
get born at the end of world
gun to temple is “humane”
amoral, with a heart of gold
don’t forget that you’re an animal
dead ends justify the memes
it didn’t happen, if you didn’t see it.
is it a boy
is it a girl
is it a thing
is it a cat
is it a car
is it Brazil
is it all sleight
of
hand ?
you’re death eating, yet you look away
you’ve got an alibi for everything
they overcooked it, so you sent it back
I like your parents more than you, I think.
beneath the smile, I’m rather desperate
the list gets longer, everything I hate
closer to ogre than I’d like to be
yet I still rock the bells, and take the cake!
monkey eat it,
monkey eye it,
monkey buy it.
pet the wookie,
get a cookie.
‘fess up or they’ll come and take you away.
..not a doctor,
not my problem!
eyes up, outside!
put your phone away!
hands in plain sight!
put your dick away!
you’re death eating, yet you look away
you’ve got an alibi for everything
they overcooked it, so you sent it back
I like your parents more than you, I think.
beneath the smile, I’m rather desperate
I left the diamonds in my other cape
closer to ogre than I’d like to be.
gun to temple is “humane”

about
NETHERLANDS Brooklyn, New York
formed by Timo Ellis in 2010, NETHERLANDS magic lies in the contrasts it sets up: falsetto vocals, odd time signatures, and haunting hooks transform their monstrous power into weirdly delicious and dynamic songs. The overall effect is not unlike that of Swans and Dio playing simultaneously, atop an actual mountain of MDMA. ... more

May Our Chambers Be Full
by Emma Ruth Rundle & Thousupported by 21 fans who also own “FAKIR MINTAS”
I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately.
