Shovel another pile of shit on our plates and watch us eat our fill. The unwashed massed laugh and cheer and dance. Put on the costume. Learn your lines. Join your hands. Act in tandem. Put on the costume. Learn your lines. Nothing new. Unchanging. Uniform. Endless repetition. So mindless. So boring. So colorless. So pedestrian. It would be unfair, it just wouldn't be true, to call you another cog in some machine--because then you have some use. And you're worthless.
it feels like something of great meaning broke and now there are pieces scattered all around. smoke and dust everywhere. there is a certain bitter beauty to this chaos that you can experience here.
this album is something i often deeply feel and can access through these tunes. thank you so much for that. coo__hoolio

I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately. spaceman2250
