unbearable discontent
forced into resentment
foundation of existence
based on fraudulence
the lie of a gift of time
nothing but a penalty
expectations set
never meets reality
every night - continuous
I can never seem to get ahold of this
alone and cold, miserable
contemplation calling
what's the fucking point of this
searching for a constant bliss
a struggle just to exist
compensation
expectation
cooperation
(joe)
this is what drives the man
labeled infatuated
life stays customary
goes unappreciated

I didn't know about this band for a very long time. That is a tragedy. This record absolutely crushes, combining technicality, melody and pure knuckle dragging belligerence. It's executed flawlessly.
The lyrics are great. The riffs are great. The leads are great. The vocals are great. Lots of hooks everywhere.
Ten years too late this was my album of the year.
A Metal Archives dig led me to Enemy Mind, who also rule. Psyched about these outstanding Pittsburgh bands. Matt Medeiros
