about

sultry, screaming, haunted dream rock, with shoegaze glimmers à la slowdive, tarantino guitar melodies and screaming female rage calling back to 90s riot grrrl and hole. recorded at blank studios (pigsx7, the pale white) with it's intertwining ghostly vocals, overdriven walls of crunch and short, fleeting nature that leaves you goosebump covered and hungry for more.

written by frontwoman Julia O'Neill-Walton, ‘untitled’ has been in the band's live rotation since the beginning of their gigging journey and in that time has developed from an eerie, ethereal piano ballad into a brooding, screaming, noise driven glimpse into a rapidly declining mental state. it aims to explore the fear and uncertainty of tackling mental illness and learning to survive with it and O'Neill-Walton's usual abstract lyricism pairs with a more honest, heart-on-sleeve approach to convey this; creating a raw vision of someone succumbing to a dark period of time, where voices and sleeplessness take over. the song evokes a feeling of unease, a feeling of being haunted and trapped in a place that should feel safe - giving insight into the overall themes of the upcoming collection of songs.

lyrics

i can't do this no more
i'm stuck in the darkness
i'm cold in my nightdress
i can't do this no more

and we've done this before
we've broken ourselves up
in footsteps gotten hung up
yeah we've done this before

so tell me, will you be the one that i don't see anymore?
or will i push through this?
i take down my mattress and sleep on the floor

i push away the waves that hit
the dive off, the judgement
the wiseness and kindness
of voices that talk

so tell me, will you be the one that i don't see anymore?
or will i push through this?
i take down my mattress and sleep on the floor

i can't do this no more
