I think I left the water running last night
Stop the shoving, hair no tugging, fair fights
I'm afraid that I'm becoming more of a poem than a pantomime
Funny way to treat your daughter
You've been drowning her in holy water
You're pretty twisted for an ivy scholar
If all men were angels, we'd be bored as hell
She's the devil, you her father
Created her in your own image
Everything she knows, you taught her
It's your faulty engineering
She proudly wears the wings you bought her
To mimic the ones you so admire
They never did seem to suit her
They're weighing her down
She's tearing them off
Molting them chintzy feathers to rot
Before I tie you down
I gather up some primitive sounds
The ontomonapias that echo between your knees
Distorting as they bounce around
HOLY HELL
HOLY HEAVEN
HEAVENLY FATHER
HOLY WATER

Portland shoegaze that plays, as the best representatives of the genre do, with huge, hollow atmosphere against intimate observations. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 23, 2016
The six songs on this record combine the brass-heavy sounds of jazz and afrobeat with pulsing dance beats to intoxicating effect. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 25, 2020
