lyrics
Spent the night walking backwards
Through the colours saturating
Saw the whole of February
Through a window shaded wall
Sleep for days, wake up early to
All the messages, on repeat
We came so close, to perfection
will I ever learn, to be less tiresome
Paid our dues
Crept up quietly
Under everything
We'd conceived
Missed the train
Got too comfortable
Now through contention
We must ride on
Step down contender
I knew you were wrong
To judge intention
Its better that way
Every other day I'm gone
Only to resurface
All the trouble I've encountered
Has barely disappeared
Every other day I'm gone on the outside
Only to resurface you're getting older
All the trouble I've encountered don't apologise
Has barely disappeared that's life
on the outside
you're getting older
don't apologise
that's life
Through the colours saturating
Saw the whole of February
Through a window shaded wall
Sleep for days, wake up early to
All the messages, on repeat
We came so close, to perfection
will I ever learn, to be less tiresome
Paid our dues
Crept up quietly
Under everything
We'd conceived
Missed the train
Got too comfortable
Now through contention
We must ride on
Step down contender
I knew you were wrong
To judge intention
Its better that way
Every other day I'm gone
Only to resurface
All the trouble I've encountered
Has barely disappeared
Every other day I'm gone on the outside
Only to resurface you're getting older
All the trouble I've encountered don't apologise
Has barely disappeared that's life
on the outside
you're getting older
don't apologise
that's life

WOW just WOW. I have been looking for this sound for years! Finally stumbled across Covet and instantly ordered the vinyl, bought the digital and preordered the new album. I love it.

Certainly a controversial direction for the band, but this album ultimately rests as my favorite from TTNG. The technical mastery of their previous albums is still present here along with some very thought provoking and philosophical lyrics. I may not always agree with the lyrical messaging, but this is an album which rewards careful listening.
go to album -
Strange and angsty alternative rock from Los Angeles that hovers between haunting and pretty and sharp and driving.
go to album -
Throwing mathcore, emo, and ambient into the mix, Estonia's Kaschalot push progressive rock's multitasking approach to its limits.
go to album -
Melancholic and sharp instrumental post-rock from Oklahoma group Speak, Memory.
