NUMB TO THE CHAOS OF A LOST GENERATION
STREETS RUSH BY, COLD AND GREY
THEY WANT YOU TO BE LOST
INSECURE AND SCARED
THEY WANT YOU COLD AND SUBMISSIVE
FEEL HEARTLESS. IF WE HAD A SOUL
IT DIED LONG AGO
BUT LIFE’S TOO SHORT
TO PLAY THEIR GAME
TOO LITTLE TIME TO STAY DEPRESSED
NOT GIVING UP
NOT THIS TIME
NOT GIVING IN
TO THEIR MASTER PLAN

The best release from Swordwielder so far. I really enjoy the unusual twists and lyrical connotations. No "Satan Buttsex Beer" but kinda philosophical-existentialism with the brute darkness of reality. A.W.
Love the vibe of this project as a whole. SUPER depressed angry music which relies heavily on sound clips and audio collage is my jam especially in sludge. Feels like a more deprived and crusty version of Through Silver in Blood. Either way, the balance between the audio collage and more tradition crust/sludge sections is perfect and leaves me satisfied every time I listen (which is a lot) kaiiil
Aussie trio Burger Chef dish out a hearty helping of noise rock with a side of d-beat: messy, raw, and oh-so satisfying. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 20, 2022
This Australian group wraps D-beat in layers of psychedelic fuzz & squall for a howl from the depths of modern dystopia. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 28, 2018
On their ferocious self-titled debut, the Australian punks pit d-beat percussion against gnarled, metallic melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 3, 2024
