Alert during battle or the hunt -
These glittering spikes - (those shiny tips)
I am the stinging of the skin.
I gift pleasure.
But only gift fools pain.
You disregard my shimmering leaves
and leave no offerings
You step and pass over my stories
I dim my shine to cause surprise
And kiss you with my stinging tears.
I will continue to grow upward from the sidewalks
The class you look down
on as you look down on me.
They pay their respects and because -
I restore them.
I spin into a high power
I sting to control the pain.
Why do you step on and ignore my stories?
one of the most important releases of the decade, the horrors shouted here are only getting worse, type of shit to keep you up at night. straight raw punk to slam breakdowns on some parts, wild wild shit. thankful to have caught them at TIANTG fr. David
The punk scene needs more of this. There are obvious comparisons to be had with Nausea and Sacrilege, but Flower stands on their own (and alone, currently) with this caustic, crusty, meaningful punk. Buy the LP/shirt bundle - it's a good price and you're supporting a good scene. X Wild Alaskan Salmonella X
Knockout debut from a Buffalo, New York-based hardcore band who like their riffs sick, their drums fast, and their choruses sticky-sweet. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 28, 2024
