Absentee 03:07
I can’t pretend to call it what it’s not Sucking blood until it hits the spot And it spills your belly With all the strength of a fraying knot Waiting for the other shoe to drop Well go ahead and fucking drop I can’t make you stop And it’s swallowing so painfully Choking down the Listerine To clean your belly So I think it’s time for me to leave Become the ghost you’d love to be Hang my name with the absentee Is there a way we can get away?

NO FATE 04:36
I don’t know where to begin, the taste of metal sloughing skin? I’ll never taste that taste again, I’ll never face that ghost again. I don’t know where this will fall, I pushed your back against the wall. You never wanted this at all, you never felt that way at all. And it feels so small. It feels so small. I don’t know if I could tell, the steeple from the iron bell. Last chances so I might as well, sinking fast but it’s just as well. I can’t tell if it was a lie that we built up to take a dive. Do you know how we got so high? Do you know how to survive? And I don’t feel alive. I don’t feel alive. When I look in your eyes, do you feel alive? And it feels so nice, it feels so nice. Just to un-write time, yeah it feel’s so nice.

Tracer 02:12
I’ve been calling you a stranger for so long now, and it’s starting to get me down Your footsteps echo across my bed so I keep an ear to the ground Until I hear you calling out When your friends say you’re back in town I turn each corner hoping for that sound I just want you turn me around It’s no longer a game, it ended when I stopped feeling safe. why aren’t you feeling the same? Now I only fall asleep when it rains. You came to me in a dream last night In the empty places we walked About how it felt to have it all collapse How it all seemed to be too much. And if we could only have that talk I think these waves could really dig you out But you’ve made that bed inside my head I never wanted to give you up You used to hold my head up. Now all I can do is tell you to stop. But you don’t let up. If you don’t want to be a stranger you'd better call off the dogs

If the hits don't stop until the lights come up, If I talk your talk, let me walk your walk Do you think that you could love me forever? And if I say hello right before I go Do you think that you could love me forever? And if I lift the fog of war To see you don’t care anymore Place my things out your front door I’ll hold on like never before If you hear that it’s okay To let your heart beat another way Do you think you could love me forever? Do you think you could love me forever ? No, I don’t really think so

about

Brilliant Beast Minneapolis, Minnesota

Brilliant Beast was a fuzzy shoegaze band from Minneapolis. Led by sibling dual-vocalists Hannah (vocals, guitar) and Jordan Porter (vocals, guitar) and anchored by the rhythm section of Ronnie Lee (bass) and Eric Whalen (drums), they spit out jams ranging from short garage heavy snarls to clanging & cavernous dirges. It gets loud. ... more
