    Lyrics:
    come and light the fire
    from every end.
    when our hands look old
    when we smile at death
    when the stars blur out
    when our families die
    will you think of me?
    will i be there still?
    will you still see me?
    i am an ugly root
    knotting itself out of life
    i want to breathe fire
    i want to grind my teeth into dust
    i was alive
    now i lie
    on my back
    in the dark
    wounds opening up
    in a meadow clearing
    head turned
    smoke white pouring
    from my eyes
    drip me dry
    feeding the earth
    she deserves it more
    should have spared her better
    wish i had more to give
    if i could find myself
    if i knew it then
    like you saw me now
    i could hold you like
    you needed me to.
    it feels like i'm left behind
    watch you i'm eroding
    every time
    i'm all claw
    guilty for every rotting thought
    it feels like i'm left behind
    you deserve the world
    i'm bleeding ash and tar
    never waking
    i am guilty for it all

    Just saw them open for Deafheaven, but I hadn't heard of them before. I'm impressed that all 4 of them get equal attention on stage. They all play side by side, even the drums, and all 4 of them sing. I don't think I've ever seen a band do that.

      Go two layers deeper.
      Who influenced Beach House, Phanto, EITS and Defs? Those are the bands you truly want to sit down and listen to. That's how you find out that your heroes have borrowed/taken/stolen tons from many others original creations.

    An absolutely brilliant, heavanly song to miraculously follow up with honors to their masterpiece of Death Spells, and their Act 1, curtain dropping Realms prior to that. It (unknowingly how) supercedes the production accomplishments of the latter two albums, but in a preserved, natural easing of elemental value that ages perfectly, missing any other bands' noticable willfulness to make their sound sweeter. The four members from the Phoenix Metro area of the desert, Alex, Ryan, Austin and Evan create an audible oasis to the thirsting ear of rock fans who want the best of intricate, yet appealing, musicianship, combined with phenomenal production and engineering perfection that calms the aching Eustachian Tube from the almost Black Metal-esque thunderstorm breakdowns, immediately after climaxing your senses, providing enough breath to calm your heart rate before the next exhale of emotional distortion and vocals. Overall, best band to come out, different, sonically thoughtful, and humble that Ive seen in a very long time. Do yourselves a favor and pick any of their albums, for any circumstance that allows you uninterrupted listening pleasure, song to song.

    Found these guys in 2019 and it had been a long time since I'd been obsessed with a song/have a song actually give me goosebumps (Dark Stone) - I knew these guys would continue to blow up, and I can't wait for the future. This new album is better than I even expected. That Deafheaven tour w Holy Fawn is legitimately one of the best shows I've ever been to, and I've been going to shows for 20 years. Not just their insanely huge sound, but also Deafheaven's CRUSHING performance. MAN
