I found the hands I needed, last fall when I was defeated by the ghosts of my former self. There’s no god but I was in hell, drifting from place to place in search of somewhere safe. Skinny legs and wolf eyes, you are what saved my life and gave purpose to the word “survive.” Promise we’ll never sink and I will never leave to sulk on salt stained sleeves. I’m done with the old me, and the monsters on the wall. I‘ve moved on from the fall: good vibes about that time, but now I’ve made you mine. I’m blowing kisses at the moon again, to signify that broken hearts can mend. Let’s not forget what we had back then, but realize there’s still safety in the term “best friends.” Hold my hand and I’ll hold yours.
Aggressive, heartfelt lyrics that get stuck in your head for days with riffs that make you wish you were a better musician. Erode is easily in my top 3 for album of the year. Error Records
Thieves are an under-appreciated dark hardcore band from Chicago, IL. Seriously one of the best lives bands in midwest hardcore. This record is fast and scary. Get it! Error Records

A rollercoaster of rage-crying emotion sure to send you over the edge if you're not careful. Gotta love Old Gray and all the emo ragers they write for us. Mikey
