seemingly out of habit
i found myself placing
things to block the door
as a sort of counterweight
and nobody was home
nobody was home at all
nobody was home
nobody was home at all
all i've got left in my lungs
are fragile, weak breaths
and stifled cries
and all i've got left in my eyes
are distant moons far away from you
and nobody was home
nobody was home at all
nobody was home
nobody was home at all
and nobody was home
nobody was home at all
nobody was home
nobody was home at all

0 full of scorpions is my mind
I taste bitter root in my mouth
No weapons forged against me shall prosper
Any evil wished against me shall be reflected back tenfold
O existence, let me be known
My eyes calcify over time
Muscles rot and sinews snap and melt
Until blood and ash cannot be told apart
Your fathers, where are they?
And the prophets, do they live forever?
O my unrestrained rage!
My mind's fury renders me unable to see straight
Driven to madness by blinding anger
I will use what's left of my strength to raze and salt the earth
Your fathers, where are they?
And the prophets, do they live forever?
Gathering dust to build a mountain
Whatever it takes, I will expand the expanse
Between you and me

Music For 18 Magicians
by Karass
Tacoma's Karass whittled these bleak dream-pop gems from free-form jams, and the rhythms that rattle through them have a live energy.

A riveting jam session from Pittsburgh, Pa. folk band Wisbands, who infuse classic Americana with jazz and psychedelic rock.

Sometimes I Forget You're Human Too
by Bored at My Grandmas House
Melodic alt-pop in the vein of Soccer Mommy is driven by winding guitar lines and augmented with dreamy shoegaze elements.
