lyrics

To write with eyes painting a picture.
Our minds are tapped with finest of wires.
Our time becomes a clone of the public.
A match erases the last of fingerprints.

In cellars we’re printing while ears laced with carbon watch closely.
Our minds are tied tightly with strings held like kites.
No rescue is seen without loss of comfort.

Wind chimes warn us of northern intruders.
We can’t see land that is lost in the distance.
Wars are raging in pastures beside us.
Doorways that were once left open are closed.

Rise, take thanks for creation.
We side with those who are humble.
Nights where handshakes were fluent, with knives we’ll study the blueprints.

Rise, take thanks for creation.
We’ll side with those who are humble.
We’ll hide our knives in cloaks made out of smirks.
We plagiarize thinking.
Rise, take bows for conception.
They’ll side with those unassuming.
We’ll breathe the air of another one’s lungs.
We’ll hinder the growing.

Words twined with spite have surfaced despite grave endeavor.
Windows give insight to our hope, not what tongues deliver.
Nights spend riding behind the wheel of travels.
Lines are magnets that hold us to shores of composure

13.0.0.0.0
by TTNG

supported by 50 fans who also own “Shirts And Skins”

Delicious math rock featuring artful and catchy melodic writing, underpinned by intensely complex instrumental work. The emo influence in TTNG's past works has been toned down in favor of delicate pop songwriting, and, oh boy, it does it for me. Andy Bond

This is the Second Album of a band called Adebisi Shank
by Adebisi Shank

supported by 40 fans who also own “Shirts And Skins”

This album single handedly pulled me deep into the world of Math and experimental rock. It's uplifting melodies and energetic drum beats set the bar so high that it's been a challenge to find artists who even come close to the lofty heights achieved by Adebisi Shank. All the songs are great, but Bones takes the top slot for sheer catchiness. nano_irving
