lyrics

We're the sons and daughters of the poor man, the middle class man,
Forced down to serve by the rich man's hand.
This is the perspective of a poor dead man's son,
Another kid that had to run, another life struggling in the age of the gun. Running was only temporary, I tripped up and I fell.
I've learned from what they wanted: Silent people living in hell,
Where we're taught there's a price for every man,
And a price for every piece of land.
Thrown into a life of stagnance, your mind's a jail.
You're raised for profit and you were born to fail.
Sometimes stepping out of line,
And walking away from all you know
Is the hardest thing to leave behind.
A new life defined, now we can defy the greedy men,
With the greenest of minds.
We never wanted to be seen as a commodity,
I refuse to be an object of a vision that blinds me.
Aggression.
I gotta break the mold.
Aggression.
Never let them take control.
Aggression.
Hands in shackles, mind's confined to a cage.
Aggression.
I won't stop until I've broken every chain.

Stage Four

Before this album I'd only ever really listened to Lament and Dead Horse X; I've never been -that- familiar with touche amore but this blasted them from being a band I enjoyed on occasion to an absolute favorite, one I feel connected with personally, intimately. I feel understood which is a rare experience. sleepy_foxie

Incendiary fait revivre avec brio le hardcore métallique new-yorkais impitoyable, avec cette touche quasiment edge metal et des riffs qui pourraient venir aisément de groupes de thrash. Raton (Horns Up)

Springtime and Blind

A friend with a reliably fine musical taste posted this album on FB and I wasn't disappointed. Love the guitar sound and the passionate vocals (melodic enough to not pass as screamo or whatever). Punk rock spirit yet with a lot of dynamics (definitely a yes to the Dischord reference) and compact songs that won't leave your head for a long time. Many many great tunes on here but for the moment USMA and Lay Low have to be my favorites! Great band, very happy to have found them! perpendikel
